FreedomRydr 0 Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Hi. New to Emby. I installed this server controller so I could view my media, Photos, Videos and Music. In setting up media locations, I only find ability to load single files not folders and subfolders. I have thousands, no, tens of thousands of photos, videos and music albums. How do I set it up so it will read entire parent folders, rather than having to add one file at a time? It would take literally months of adding one file at a time for every photo, song, or video file. Other apps allow folders, and reads all content in sub folders below it but I do not find this option in the dashboard. Anyone know if this can be done? Otherwise this setup was all in vain! Thanks ~FR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Happy2Play 8140 Posted January 18, 2016 Solution Share Posted January 18, 2016 (edited) Have you checked out the Library setup Wiki? Just set a library for each content type. Edited January 18, 2016 by Happy2Play 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FreedomRydr 0 Posted January 19, 2016 Author Share Posted January 19, 2016 (edited) I guess I am just impatient. Logging in to my Roku Emby service, I see that it has just been building the library and with the number of items I have in my folders, it is taking a while to build it. Most of my media has been picked up so I can access it, and it is still building the library. Sorry for the panic! My bad! Thanks for the replies and assist. ~FR Edited January 19, 2016 by FreedomRydr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
