Not exactly the same, but I ran into a similar issue in Plex. Here's the discussion where tteck helped me figure it out. Hope this helps.

I think that there has to be another migration in 'install/jellyfin-install.sh' to change the default gids.

install/jellyfin-install.sh handles the default distribution which is ubuntu 22.04.

Here is the solution to your problem: https://github.com/tteck/Proxmox/discussions/2850#discussioncomment-10552091 (sed -i -e 's/^_ssh:x:104:$/render:x:104:jellyfin/' -e 's/^render:x:993:jellyfin$/_ssh:x:993:/' /etc/group)

Hey @havardthom,
thanks for your reply. Why is it not an option to implement this?
When will the default be updated to the current lts?

We do want to update default to 24.04 at some point, feel free to make a feature request in https://github.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVE/discussions or make a contribution if you'd like. Such a change must be thoroughly tested by people with intel, nvidia and amd to see that it will still work for everyone, since it is a popular script.
