After installing plex, I created the following IOCAGE mount points (as read only):
After doing this and restarting the plug in, I can access the IOCAGE shell and see the folders and files in the jail's media folder.
But in the management interface for plex, as I manually add the libraries as:
These all add OK but the library is shown as empty.
What did I miss? Thanks!

Code:

These all add OK but the library is shown as empty.
