Hi there,
I’m a new user of Plex, as well as a new user on NAS (here My Cloud Home Duo).
I have installed my Plex server on the NAS (directly through the Web app configuration interface), created my Plex account.
But when I want to create a new librairy, I don’t have the feature allowing me to choose the path folder to let Plex find my files (movies, photos…). I can just choose the type of librairiy and configure advanced settings, but that’s all.
I can I do ???
Thanks a lot for your help !
Best
That’s a restriction of the Plex Server when installed on a WD NAS.
From https://support.plex.tv/articles/115003310834-western-digital-my-cloud-home/ :
File Locations Get Created
After enabling Plex Media Server, a new
Plexfolder will be created under Files:
Inside the Plex folder, subfolders corresponding to the different library types that Plex supports will automatically be created (such as
Shared TV Shows). These subfolders are where your libraries will look for media.
Tip! : These are the only locations under which Plex Media Server will look for content. It will not look for content in custom locations outside of these subfolders.
