Realtime monitoring, SMB share, fstab, current state?

[BloodyIron 24]

Hi Folks,

 

I have been meaning to figure out something with the real time monitoring. I have my media on an SMB share, and within the VM that runs Emby I have fstab mounting the SMB shares on boot, so Emby isn't mounting them.

 

I tried looking it up, but I wasn't sure what the current good method is. I would like to figure out how to get real time (or near) monitoring going for this content so when I drop new stuff in, it picks it up.

 

As it is right now, it doesn't quite seem to be doing that, even though I have it turned on.

 

Please advise?

The best thing to do is discuss a specific example, and then attach the emby server log from the time frame of that example. You can learn how to do that here:

So... it could be working already, and you want me to try it out, see what the logs say, paste em kind of thing? Aka, try to reproduce it?

Yes, I'm just looking to collect additional information. 

 

By the way, you can enter an smb path directly into emby without first mounting it, as long as it doesn't require a username and password.
