FrostByte 5041 Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 If following the manual instructions above the folders are found under /var/packages/EmbyServer/target/var Did you shutdown Emby? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
style2k 6 Posted January 8, 2019 Author Share Posted January 8, 2019 i know the map. but problem is i cant reacht it from the nas interface or from a backup program like hyperbackup or acronis.i want to automate the proces and backup that map once every 2 months , but only maps i can reach are the shared maps on the synology and not the /var/packages/EmbyServer/target/var/ map Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 36999 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Is it possible to mount the ftp path to a local path in Synology? I think if that's possible then that would allow other apps to see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
