Been here an almost year and literally just learned that from the above post.

Looks are deceiving lol. This was a rare tender moment.

Yeah I never truly resolved the proper permission settings - tried to understand and research and figure it out even though I’m a complete Linux newb.

My workaround was figuring out that I can mount the drive in the Plex directory and it finally could see the media. I had to override the default behavior when Unbuntu auto mounts it to a specific directory when you plug the HDD in while the OS is running.

I’m just now getting into it. Set up a laptop with Ubuntu running Plex media server. Been taking some real baby steps watching basic Linux tutorials.

It did take me about 4 hours to figure out how to mount an ext HDD so that Plex would have proper permissions to find the media. It was very rewarding to finally frickin resolve that! I’m still gonna keep pecking away and learn as I go while watching I keep watching tutorials.

Exploding heads I don’t even think exists on lemmy anymore. They moved to another platform.

Saving for later since it’s such a long read. He’s an awesome music pioneer and bad ass poker player, even if he kinda acts smarmy. He’s earned his chops.
