Why are the encoded-video and upload directories taking up space?

[ppskj178]

The bug

The problem is not resolved and you open an issue.
#12543

root@jellyfin-immich:~/library# du -sh *
58G     encoded-video
1.0K    library
1.0K    profile
21G     thumbs
65M     upload

The encoded-video folder is getting bigger and bigger even though I turned off video transcoding and no transcode jobs are happening in Jobs.

What should you check?

Please post your external library settings.

[ppskj178]

My external libraries are mounted as NFS and for some reason they are often disconnected.

[ppskj178]

Is there anything else I can check?

[danieldietzler]

The DB isn't on a network mount?

[ppskj178]

The DB isn't on a network mount?

db is local
i do docker compose up in home dir
and mount nfs path /data/photo
