Emby v4.8.8.0

Issue 1: The Library file scan is not completing - it's currently stuck at 93% - I haven't monitored daily, but it's been running for a while. Not sure what's causing the scan to pause out
Issue 2: Unable to select a folder. I'm able to connect to my TV folder on the NAS /volume1/TV, but I cannot access my Movies folder /volume1/Movies - I've reviewed the permissions for my emby connect user and the user is an admin with read/write access to both

I've recently updated emby to v4.8.8.0 and the NAS to DSM v7.1.1 - it's an older NAS (DS414), but has treated me well over the years. During the upgrade, I had to reinstall/reconfigure emby and some of my other apps due to the upgrade of the behind the scenes db and application. It's been several moons since I set it up and perhaps (hopefully), I'm just missing a small detail somewhere along the line...

Log file attached

TIA

I may have figured out my problem... 

As I was looking through other posts, I came across a reference to this: 

turns out I did not provide access to the emby internal user... Issue 1 has been addressed.

Of course, neither TV or Movies had the read/write access for the emby internal user - so I've added that to both (even though I could already access the TV folder), I've removed the TV shows library in Emby now and re-added both TV and Movies. Currently scanning the TV folder, hopefully we get it to finish!

once it looks to either be locked up again or complete, I'll provide an update - and a new log if it's still locked.

it took a while to scan everything, but it seems like things work pretty well with the correct permissions 😜
