Read-Only Library for local resources

[garlicpizza 0]

I'm using the latest Emby Server (emby-server-qnap_4.4.2.0_x86_64.qpkg) for my QNAP TS-653B.

 

I have a local disk pool with media files, which I want to access via Emby. Now this works fine, but I want to have Emby read-only permissions on the actual media files.

 

I understand that metadata has to be written on the disk, which requires write permissions and that's fine.

 

I was hoping to find an option to use an SMB share for the library, where I could restrict the permissions with a read-only user for Emby, but I haven't found such a thing.

 

Is there any way to give Emby read-only permissions on my media library?

So i guess there's no way to configure this in the QNAP file system?

Not that I am aware of. In QNAP I can only open Emby, but have no further "App"-specific settings.
