Emby Android Server USB Drive Can't Read Directory
G'day,
Running Emby Server 4.7.6.0 on a Samsung Tab A7 Lite with Android 12, but cannot find any content i.e. directories, on attached Samsung 2TB SSD T7 Shield ExFat formatted USB drive.
Google Files (shows it as PSSD T7 Shield) and X-plore (shows it as /mnt/media_rw/DCFE-9049) and they can read all content on drive and Android can read content and sees it as mounted as /storage/3865-6132.
I have tried many many times all combos of these paths to manually enter in library add set
I think you missed the part where I mentioned about adb command.
After adding permission in manifest, just run below adb command while your phone is connected to pc with USB debugging on.
adb shell
appops set --uid com.emby.embyserver MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE allow
To check whether Permission is added or not, run -
dumpsys package com.emby.embyserver | grep -e "android.permission.MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"
