Patch shipped: v1.6.682 — Jellyfin 12 opt-in boxes update again, and an empty Movies/TV folder no longer hides an existing library

These SparkBox updates are now available: v1.6.682 — Jellyfin 12 opt-in boxes update again, and an empty Movies/TV folder no longer hides an existing library - If you opted into Jellyfin 12, sudo sparkbox up no longer stops with "Refusing to downgrade jellyfin/jellyfin: running 12.0 - pinned 10" and takes every other app down with it. The downgrade guard now checks the Jellyfin version you chose, not the bundle's default pin, so updates and restarts work again. A real downgrade (no opt-in, or running newer than the version you picked) is still refused exactly as before. - If you pointed SparkBox at media you already had and your folders are named movies/tv rather than Movies/TV, an empty Movies, TV or Music folder left behind by an earlier setup no longer hides your real one. Jellyfin showed an empty library and Sonarr/Radarr said their root folder was not accessible while every permissions check passed. SparkBox now removes the empty folder (it never removes files) and links the standard name to your folder, so the apps see your library. - On a drive that cannot hold links, SparkBox now tells you to rename the folder to Movies/TV/Music instead of quietly re-creating the empty one. Update from the SparkBox dashboard, or run sudo sparkbox upgrade on your SparkBox host. If a problem remains after updating, submit a private support ticket or reply here. Include your SparkBox version and what you see; leave passwords and licence keys out.
