Easy movie access from server

Hi,

 

I have my MKV's on a separate Win 7 computer (separate from WMC) and I had difficulty playing them from Emby until I found the instructions on how to modify the permissions on the server. The problem is I'm using Win 7 Home as a "server" not Windows server so I don't think I can set the permission for the e.g. "Movies" dir and have it apply to all the subdirectories where the MKV's are stored. It's a pain to apply the permissions to each movie title directory.

 

Is there an easy way to do this so I don't have to modify permissions every time I create a new MKV directory? I was thinking of trying FreeNAS on Win7 - would this solve the problem?

 

Thanks

You should be able to right click the main folder....left click properties...security....change to read/write permissions for everyone, no?
