Adding new network library - Organism7 - 2025-11-13
Hi,
Apologies if this question has been asked many times previously!
I have been a user of Plex for many years.
But due to a number of decisions made by them and suffering more and more bugs I decided to try Jellyfin.
This has been one of the best decisions I have made!
However, I have hit a problem which I hope more experienced users may be able to help me with.
I have a UGREEN DXP4800 Plus.
This is running the Jellyfin Server software.
I also have all my video files such as TV Shows & Movies stored on it.
Everything is working fine.
However, I have a Music folder stored on a (Synology DSPlay1
NAS.All my devices, including my PC and mac-mini are on the same home network.
Network scanning software sees them all and shows their IP address.
I can copy files to and from every device using my PC or mac-mini.
But, when I opt to add a new "Music" Library within Jellyfin and browse using the "Add Folder" button it does not "see" the Synology DSPlay18 unit.
I do NOT want to move my Music library over to the UGREEN DXP4800 Plus NAS.
Can anyone help me find a way to enable Jellyfin to "see" the Synology DSPlay18 so that I can add the Music Folder stored there?
Any help appreciated.
Thanks.
