External library issue with Synology

I'm using a Synology NAS and I managed to setup Immich via Portainer, however, I unable to get it to scan my existing folder: /volume1/homes/myusername/Photos .

The aforemetioned folder is where the app "Synology Photos" stores its photos, so I'd like to be able to import these photos into Immich.

I tried adding /volume1/homes/myusername/Photos to the "External Path" via the "Administration" page. Then, on my "Account settings", I set the external library to import from path
/
.

Logs gives out:
Found 0 assets when crawling import paths
/

I've included the things I assume is relevant, but I'd be happy to provide more information in case I missed anything.

My setup:

docker compose:
https://bin.0xfc.de/?3ed8fb25dfb994b5#A1NYEL1ibfwEKGPnaRE46qXxC97H8JnnJYXPfLz8doqQ

.env:
https://bin.0xfc.de/?3df9e2937a899d17#FBd17H9BNrSCgTPNa9mJ4SBneddL8rQ9CkAQTXjtkiJZ

References/things I've tried and looked into already:
  • [BUG] Importing photos from new created external library not working #4185https://github.com/immich-app/immich/issues/4185According to OP in this issue was to change user permission from `1026/100` to `1026/101`. I removed all files and reinstalled with this permission, without any luck.
  • Immich docs - Librarieshttps://documentation.immich.app/docs/features/librariesNot sure if I completely understood everything here, still relatively new to docker. Maybe my docker compose file will reveal if it's correct or not?
