Hir0 0 Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Hey, having some trouble getting emby to recognize my video library on a drive with exfat. Due to the file system, I can't chown the folder. I am thinking maybe I need to run emby as the system user, how would I go about doing so?

mastrmind11 717 Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 cant you just setthe uid and gid when you mount it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Q-Droid 609 Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 (edited) Yes, uid and gid can be specified at mount time. No need to change the emby runtime user. Add uid=<emby uid>,gid=<emby runtime gid> to the mount options. Example in fstab: /dev/sdc1 /media/emby/Library exfat defaults,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0 http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/bionic/man8/mount.exfat-fuse.8.html Edited September 2, 2018 by Q-Droid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
