Personal Instance of Proxmox bare metal. I am planning on using LXC's to host Jellyfin and other software. I plan for them to share a HDD LVM. Being a novice to Linux and Proxmox, is there a way to use a filesystem for this LVM that's compatible with windows? I want to copy the media from the mounted HDD LVM to a seperate windows device. I am not sure if that can be reasonably managed through software that sends to a different computer or if I should plan on using a windows compatible filestorage and unmount the HDD back and forth.

Thanks for your help.
 
Hi!

The turnkey mediaserver lxc template might be useful. It comes with samba via webmin and jellyfish. I haven't tested it extensively, but it looks pretty promising. You could assign enough storage to a container running it and have filesystem issues abstracted away from you!
