Server Version#: 1.16.5.1552-8e8d0c785
Player Version#:
I have a new Synology DS218+; I just added my media libraries to it yesterday. I named the server “homeflix” and copied two folders, named “Movies” and “TV Shows” to the preexisting “video” volume.
Plex successfully found the homeflix server. I went through the steps to add a library by
Add Library>Library Type>Movies
and hit Browse for Media Folder. Here’s where I may be fumbling. I get a dialog box showing the first pic below; If I select volume1, near the bottom on the right is a “video” folder, which I’d presumed was the volume with the media folders/files I’d copied over. But if I select that video folder, this is all I see:
It doesn’t display the contents of video or display video as the selected folder on the left.
In case that’s how it’s supposed to be, I hit Add, then Add Library, I get the briefest message that the library is being processed, then nothing: “There are no items in this library.”
The media folders are an EXACT copy of a local drive. If I run Plex from my Mac with the external local drive as the media library source it works perfectly (my naming and organization is correct). I used Carbon Copy Cloner to make an exact copy of it on the NAS videos volume, so the folder/file names are correct.
What am I missing?
