Natilus13 10 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Hello folks, Something that I have been wondering for a while now and have not been able to find a clear answer for is this... For setting up libraries, there is the folder and the optional netork path. As I am on a Mac, my folder is listed as /Volumes/Share/Movies With that in mind, should the optional network path be listed as //Server/Share/Movies or should it be \\Server\Share\Movies Currently my shares come from both Windows and Mac boxes, not that I think that makes any difference. Thanks! N Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36884 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Hi, It would be whatever your other devices on your network would use to access the network path. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macs would use //Server/Share/Movies where as Windows would use \\Server\Share\Movies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36884 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Then i would do it the windows way because we don't have a mac app with direct file access anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was what I was expecting, but just hadn't found a clear answer. Thanks @@Luke :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
