Alternative Paths

Never leaving well enough alone - i upgraded my processor and switched to a SSD.  I have 8TB loaded in my tower now and 4 attached via usb.  I enabled network shares to everyone on my network for the media files - in alternative paths - it seems like my options were simply matching movies to movies, music to music etc. since the drives were already set up and network shares.  Can it be i finally got off easy with something?

Sorry I'm not exactly sure what your question is.

Basically I had issues in the past setting up alternative paths I guess because I am somewhat new to playing with computers in this capacity.  The wiki makes it seems that setting them up is easy when I know the first time I set it up was a little more complex.  I also didn't have the drives set up as network shares off the bat so I had to type out manual paths.  When I used drives that are already shared and mapped to the network, then go into alternative paths - I can literally pair movies to movies, music to music, and I don't think typing in an alternative path was an option

How did you set up your library?  If you used local drive letters then you will want to setup substitute paths.

 

Z: is my local drive pool so I added substitute paths.

Yep, that is how I have it.  I  guess I made too many change to the main computer.  I will delete the Emby repository from root on the Rasp and reinstall.  I guess too many changes to the computer made it too hard for it to pick up.
