It's not FUD if it's real. I could say the same shit for people screaming Jellyfin at literally every chance they get when the topic is Plex. Instead I further the discussion rather than telling other people they're spreading FUD.
It's an MD5 hash of the file path. Not randomly generated, and not a proper UUID.
Edit: for others that might not understand... Docker files will standardized the path side... *arr suites and general human nature will standardize the file name.
So a generally guessable file path exists for a LOT of users out there... It's absolutely possible to guess that many people running jellyfin would store their version of bigbucksbunny as /movies/bigbuckbunny (2008)/bigbuckbunny.mkv or similar conventions and I've probably already nailed the path to generate the MD5 for a lot of people running Jellyfin just now.
