Please describe your bug

I have an m3u playlist edited with all my free internet TV and I couldn't access it to use. I think is because of the file permissions in linux. How to change this? When I browse to my home folder nothing appears..

I add "my user name" to group "jellyfin", but still I didn`t access the playlist. Should the file be in a specific directory?

Yes, I solved by moving the file to a drive and there it read.
