Emby sees folder on Qnap NASbut doesn't load anything

Mapped to music files folder on NAS is fine, but,  when I tried to create another library for photos and while all the folders show  - they are all empty? No photos inside.

Hi there, did the library scan complete after adding the new library? What format are the photos?

[Bloosky 2]

Yes, all the folders show up but none contain any photos, almost all of which are .jpg

May need to go over folder paths assign to each library as it almost sounds like the path may be part of another library.  Plus we will probably need to see the server log.

Honestly I can't even explain how to point Emby to my NAS because it doesn't come up as an option when I go to configure the library (not sure how I got the music in place). Maybe we start there? Getting to to see my stuff on my laptop works fine but I'd rather try to keep all that stuff on my NAS.

Well, got it to work. I have all my music and photos under the parent folder Multimedia" on my Qnap NAS, so I copied the path I pasted in for my music files (Emby doesn't show my NAS or folders when I try and select it from the drop down), and just changes "Music" to Photos" on the path string. Worked.
