Emby Android Server USB Drive Can't Read Directory

[jscheeren 16]

Just as a note, of the several apps that I use on Android later versions that allow access to an attached USB storage device (including an SD card), MediaMonkey is quite intuitive in how it guides the user to allow access to its music and video files. There is a free addition available on Play Store.

@LukeDear Luke,
I used my same old devices(Meizu17) and installed the newest Emby version (4.9.0.48-beta)from the official website like ten minutes ago.
And the problem remains the same.
Emby can't read the external USB from this exact device. But other phones of mine doesn't have the problem.

Anyway I have stopped using this old device for a long time and I have already built my own NAS. So I guess i won't go further into this problem. 

Thank you for all the effort. Have a nice day

Yes, the external disk via OTG is now accessible. Thanks, Luke.
