USB Drive not accessible with Samba or Jellyfin but works directly with VLC

Post by /RaspberryPi »


A 2T USB drive is accessible in the Pi-4 file system, and by VLC player running on Pi-4, and across LAN with Winscp.

2T drive is NOT accessible by Jellyfin although Jellyfin could play files stored locally on Pi-4.

I discarded Jellyfin and tried Samba. Network devices could NOT access the Samba 2T drive. Tried a smaller 8G thumb drive and could successfully access and play media over the network.

8G drive is VFAT

/dev/sdc1 on /media//7F1E-8D60 type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,uid=1000,gid=1000,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=ascii,shortname=mixed,showexec,utf8,flush,errors=remount-ro,uhelper=udisks2)

1T drive is EXFAT

/dev/sda1 on /media//One Touch type exfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,uid=1000,gid=1000,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,iocharset=utf8,errors=remount-ro,uhelper=udisks2)

Any advice appreciated. Thanks.
