hpmueller1 6 Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 (edited) Hi, i've just noticed, that all my *.nfo files contain the local (windows c:\...) path's for the actor images. I had a mapping from the local path to the unc path, which worked fine for month if not years, but now i cant find the entire "Path substituion" menu anywhere in the Webgui. I do still have the "Enable path substitution" checkbutton under Library -> Nfo Settings. Was this removed when a custom unc-path (Shared network folder under a Folder-Path in the library) was added? The only Forum-Article about this i could fin is https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/35508-path-substitution-setting-is-missing/&do=findComment&comment=334997 which basically just points to the Library-Setup-Wiki, which is not correct anymore... How can metadata still be substituted? Im i supposed to add this into Library -> Advanced -> "Metadata path"? There i seem to be unable to add a unc-path (after "Save" the circle icon appears and stays forever)... /hp Version 3.2.8.2 beta Edited March 17, 2017 by hpmueller1

ebr 15667 Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 This was changed a few versions back. Go into your library setup and, for each folder, there is a field to enter a network path equivalent.

Go into your library setup and, for each folder, there is a field to enter a network path equivalent. Yeah, i get how it works for *library* items, but how is it supposed to work for the metadata (like actor-thumbs)? Am i supposed to add this into Library -> Advanced -> "Metadata path"? There i can select a unc-path, but after clicking "Save", the circle icon appears and stays forever... //EDIT: Ahhhhh, ok, i'm supposed to add the local path as metadata-path and the unc-path as (Optional) Shared network folder.... in the library i'm using *just* the unc-path (no local path).... Thanks guys for the hints :-) (can i mark this as solved myself somehow?) Edited March 17, 2017 by hpmueller1
