Jellyfin, add access to home directory locations

I'm turning this laptop into an all-in-one entertainment system for the living room. One part of this setup is Jellyfin and set it up on a tailscale network.

Media will simply live inside the home directory under Videos, Music, Photos and such. How do I go about editing whatever docker compose file or systemd service launch command to add a few home directory paths?

Been around desktop linux for a long time but docker and immutable images has flow passed my head.

I've installed Jellyfin with the provided Bazzite setup portal which I guess just triggers some install command identical to whatever is provided in the Bazaar?

Edit: or should I aim to give my user access to the volumes it has access to?
Solution
Solution was insanely simple. Go into "Flatseal" (permissions manager for flatpak), add the directories ending with ":ro". Then go ahead and setup jellyfin library directories
