Pop_os (Ubuntu Clone) server not finding movies on my Synology NAS

[mlapoint 10]

Emby Server

Pop_os 22.04 LTS
    It is a Ubuntu clone made by System76

NAS

Synology 1522+ with NFS enabled

Problem

When I run "Scan Library Files", it does not find any of the movies, tv shows, etc.

What I have done to fix thie issue

1. I have properly setup NFS mounting and can see the files if I go to /mnt/media/movies in the terminal.
2. I have setup permissions on the shared folders as "Read/Write" for all of the users.

Why this is happening now

This all worked great until about 6 months ago when I purchased and installed a new router.  The new router changed the IP addresses from xxx.xxx.1.x to xxx.xxx.50.x.  The NAS is now on xxx.xxx.50.x so I had to re-hookup everything.  Emby is the last thing I have and have not been able to get it working properly since then.

Thank You,

Ok, forget this, I found out the I just need to re-add the directories and it works.

Hi, where did you re add the directories to? Do you mean Emby library setup?

[mlapoint 10]

Yes, apparently when the IP Address changes, emby doesn't remember where the movies are.  I just deleted the address of all of my directories and re-added them.

What IP address are you referring to?

[mlapoint 10]

The ones of my NAS. They were xxx.xxx.1.xxx and they changed to xxx.xxx.50.xxx.

Is the ip address part of the folder path in emby library setup?

[mlapoint 10]

No, but it is in the fstab file mounting file.

OK thanks for the info. We'll take a look.
