Network location

[KimberlyDC 3]

Hello, we have had Emby Server for about 2 years now. Version 4.7.10.0. Our network folder only contains the folders of the 
libraries that we have created.
Eg: Movies, Series, etc... But we really wonder now, all logs, all tags, images (also of movies that are no longer on it), cache, etc...
Where do we find these?
The network paths that are set in Emby are, for example:
 /var/packages/EmbyServer/var/logs

But where do we find this folder?

For DSM7 the Emby server files are found in one of the two folders below.  I'm not sure why Emby dashboard displays links or shortcuts to the actual files/folders 

/volume1/@appdata/EmbyServer
/volume1/@appstore/EmbyServer

Logs are in

/volume1/@appdata/EmbyServer/logs

Thanks for the support!!

But i can't enter these folders in the network location. Sorry for my english. I will give an example;

i'd like to remove or rename, etc... files, images. Emby gives the pad where it is located, but where do i enter this? Someone told me, i have to use a program like 'Putty' to enter it,

but i find it unrealistic that i have to download an extern program to enter my own files?

Why do you need to access the folders directly?

Because if i look in Emby, there are for example 'labels' which we don't use anymore, so i would think it means that they are still located somewhere. Same with actors, images, etc....

Hi, what labels?

If you add a film or series to Emby, you can enter metadata labels. Example: If you have a musical film, you can add a microphone as a label.

OK. If you want to remove or change those, then just use the Emby metadata editor. You will not be able to accomplish that by messing with the server's internal folders.

And if you delete movies from Emby, will the images and metadata, actors, etc. still be stored somewhere?
How do I know that everything has been permanently deleted and no longer consumes storage?

Those get cleared out. Nothing to worry about there. Actor images might remain though.

Ok. Thank you so much for your help!
