Custom Folders and Custom Libraries on WD My Cloud Home

Hi,

im fairly new to the NAS integration, so I’ve looked on the web and can’t seem to find an answer to this.

But how do I create custom folders and allot a custom libraries to this folder?

So on my local Storage which I have set up, I have folders and libraries for ‘Standups,’ ‘Concerts,’ etc. But I can’t see a way to name the folder path when creating a new library on Plex for the WD My Cloud Home.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

I’m sorry but you can’t. Western Digital has made it so you can only have 1 of each library type.

You can read more about Plex on the WD My Cloud devices at https://support.plex.tv/articles/115003310834-western-digital-my-cloud-home/.

What i would do is I would create a new library on the plex server and on the WD i would make sure to have everything organized and separated into different folders. Like standups in one folder and Concerts in another now with concerts i have concerts on my server and the automatic scanner does not label them so to get them to show select other media after you click the plus next to libraries and click other videos and it should come up with all your concerts and the same with your stand up and if you want to make it that you concerts how pictures i would go to google and look up the concert and get a photo for your poster and manually add it.
I hope this helped you
