Luke 37071 Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 HI, what do you mean by "your home directory"? Where are you looking for it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkppgvr 1 Posted March 25 Author Share Posted March 25 I mean I failed to find /home/jon/movies when adding new library. there were lot of directories but i'm unable to find one that have my all movies stored.(I have some movies in my /home/jon/movies directory.)

darkassassin07 423 Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Quote /path/to/library:/config /path/to/tvshows:/data/tvshows /path/to/movies:/data/movies Did you actually configure these at all? Using docker, you'll never see your home directory, unless you explicitly map it to the container. Within emby you should see /data/movies and /data/tvshows, but unless you actually have content at the paths '/path/to/movies' and 'path/to/tvshows' they'll be empty. Modify the compose you found to actually match paths on your system, those are just placeholders.... Speaking of which: You're also not using the official emby docker release or compose file, but one provided by lscr.io.... No idea if/when that gets updated. You should be using the releases found at https://hub.docker.com/r/emby/embyserver 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solution darkassassin07 423 Posted March 26 Solution Share Posted March 26 The paths on the left side of the colon are paths in the host file system; and the right side are paths in the containers filesystem, ie what emby sees. For emby to see the media that's stored in /home/jon/movies, you'll want the line: - /home/jon/movies:/media/movies In your compose file. Then emby will see those files at the path /media/movies. Within the container: /config is where emby stores its configuration files. Currently you have them stored at /path/to/library on your host. This will function, but is kinda messy. Personally, I'd move them to something like /srv/emby/config, then change that top line to match: - /srv/emby/config:/config 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
