Help with playing videos in Photoprism - eviltoast

I set up Photoprism a while back on my laptop to get all my videos and images in one place. I’m on Windows and used Docker to get it running. Everything worked then but then video playing stopped working at some point.

I’ve updated Photoprism this morning hoping that would fix it but no luck, the logs still say that video files are missing.

I went it docker and checked the originals folder and it’s empty there so it might be an issue mounting stuff on windows + external ssd. Any suggestions on how to fix this would be appreciated, I haven’t used docker much and I’m kind of lost

    check the Docker volume settings and ensure that the volume for mounting the folder containing your videos is correctly configured. Verify that the paths match the location of your video files.

    Next, ensure that the Docker container has the necessary permissions to access the video files. Check the file ownership and permissions for the shared folder containing the videos.

    Try restarting the Docker container running Photoprism as well. Sometimes, a restart can resolve mounting or file-related issues.

    That’s about all I can offer without looking in closer detail at your configs.
