Server Version#: ??
Player Version#: N/A
So I am really confused here, and the shortcuts to Linux and setting up a server don’t seem to provide anything.
First off, I am running Elementary OS, which is an Ubuntu build. It is v 5.1(Hera).
I think I’ve installed PlexServer. I’ve followed the directions online and didn’t get any errors, but since Plex installs the way it does, I don’t actually have a direct application to launch, at least that’s how I understand the Plex setup. MY user for the ‘Entertainment’ computer shows up as logged in, though, when I access the web portal.
My music is set up on a NAS, which I have connected to, and which O have bookmarked so it will auto login on launch. That is working. I have rebooted and the folder is automatically connected.
But when I add that bookmark as a library, I get no results. “There are no files in Library”, I have tried scanning my library, to no avail.
I’m sure that this is related to how much “in control” you are when you use Linux. I get it, they don’t want to make anything easy, it’s what sets Linux apart, or something like that…
Anyway, I have no idea where the folder lives. I have copied the location, which is in this case smb://music/music/, but that doesn’t work. Is it buried somewhere int he file structure when I browse? Should I enter the actual ip address of the NAS? I am missing something simple here, I’m sure of it, and any help would be greatly appreciated.
