I have my QNAP NAP Server running and providing Music song to my iPhone, Samsung TV, etc. I now want to add more songs to the Plex Server. Can you point me to documentation that shows how this is done? Also, can you tell me how to find where Servers and Libraries are stored? Many Thanks!

Hello OttoKerner, Sorry for the confusion. Yes, I do have a PLEX Music Library stored on my NAS and Plex does scan this library. So, what I would like to know is, If PLEX can scan this library does Plex identify somewhere in Plex where that the Music Library is stored. I know where that is right …

Isn’t your server already on the NAS? What do you want to move to the NAS? From where to where? Take a look into the Plex media info . It tells you precisely where Plex is expecting to find the media file of any item in the library. The properties of each Plex library, on the ‘Add Folders’ tab wil…
