@amck24The log file you attached is for an emby server running on windows and not the one running on the nvidia shield

Connect to your emby server through its IP Address and port 8096 just like when you are adding a library and instead - select Logs in the settings and then download the logs

Try this

embyserver.txt

What is the library path that you are trying to add to the library you are creating?

I think you are specifying the whole external HDD as the folder path

2026-04-14 17:48:47.705 Info App: Creating folder in database BE6D-992A - /storage/BE6D-992A
2026-04-14 17:48:47.738 Info App: Created folder in database BE6D-992A 4 - /storage/BE6D-992A

This then led to lots of errors as emby was accessing other folders which would not be available

2026-04-14 17:49:34.862 Error App: Error in GetFileSystemEntries for /storage/BE6D-992A/Android/data

2026-04-14 17:49:34.892 Error BaseItem: Error validating children for data 1973 /storage/BE6D-992A/Android/data

 

I do see Emby server found movies below this path

/storage/BE6D-992A/NVIDIA_SHIELD/Documentaries/

So can you restart the server and delete any libraries you created and create a documentaties library with the Add Folder path being just this

/storage/BE6D-992A/NVIDIA_SHIELD/Documentaries/

and if that is ok, create other libraries for other media subfolders below the "/storage/BE6D-992A/NVIDIA_SHIELD/" parent folder
