GoogleDrive Plugin browse folder location

[beaumoa 2]

HI

Ive installed the plugin done all the api stuff and imported my Googledrive ok

How do I point my Library to this drive as ive got 2TB of tv shows on this and my films on local storage

Hi, I would suggest using rclone. The plugin is not intended to import from google drive.

Perhaps there's some other tool to mount google drive to a local folder?

Don't tell my NAS that as I use rclone on it all the time but not for Google Drive.  I use it to backup to S3 storage.
I prefer it to the build in tools because it's part of a managed system and all my servers work the same way.

To install rcone on Synology you need to SSH in to the NAS then get root permission by typing 

sudo curl https://rclone.org/install.sh | bash

or

sudo -i
curl https://rclone.org/install.sh | bash

Curl is used to pull down an install script which will get loaded in bash and walk you through the installation.

Pretty sure that's how I did it.  Let me know if you have any issues.
