rtmc 0 Posted September 15, 2023 Posted September 15, 2023 so ive got a new ds923+. Two new drives installed mainly to be used as an emby server. I have a windows server but will migrate manually and rebuild. Installed emby from the package center and just went to add a test library that has a handful of movies in it. emby doesnt seem to be able to see the folder but i can add it if i enter the entire path and even then the contents cant scan. So reading up it appears that I need to give emby permissions. So i go and look at permissions and there are only the two accounts that I have made one admin and one user. no "emby" or "embyserver" or anything of that kind. Any help greatly appreciated.
rtmc 0 Posted September 15, 2023 Author Posted September 15, 2023 this is the install instructions that im following. https://emby.media/support/articles/Synology-Set-Permissions.html this is what im seeing
rtmc 0 Posted September 15, 2023 Author Posted September 15, 2023 ok feeling quite dumb. I was able to change the permissions with the pull down. The folder and subsequent folders are now visible when I add the library. However, when I scan nothing is found. There are a variety of files in the sub folders avi/mpk/mp4. Not sure why the scan emby is not finding the files.
Solution rtmc 0 Posted September 15, 2023 Author Solution Posted September 15, 2023 not sure why. i deleted both my test folders started over and it worked.
