New install on DS224+... permission denied

[kevinpauli 2]

Just upgraded my DS214play to a DS224+ and to my horror discovered VideoStation is gone, hence I'm a new prospective Emby user.  Would be happy to pay the subscription if I could just get the thing working.  Despite following directions here https://emby.media/support/articles/Synology-Set-Permissions.html , my movies library remains empty in Emby.  The logs are saying "Access to the path '/volume1/movies' is denied."

This shows I have given the emby internal user read/write access to the "movies" shared folder on volume1:

But nevertheless when I go to movies I see "no items found":

If I go to the Settings - System - Library and click the "Scan library files" button, it returns instantanteously with no message.

 

And if I now go look in the logs, I see the message about "Access to the path '/volume1/movies' is denied.":

 

Naturally, before posting I've done many system restarts, and trying unsetting/resetting these values to force them to take effect...  Anyone have any other ideas?

Hi,
What do you see for user and group permissions when opening the movies share on File Station?

Oh man, your question pointed me in the right direction. I explicitly added the "emby" user there, and gave it all read/write privs in the filestation folder, and that did the trick!  Might want to add that to the setup docs somewhere (assuming I didn't just miss it), thanks!

Awesome, glad you got it working.
