Thank you so much for the link. Thrilled to bits it is possible! As for the mounting issues, I am using fstab and have them auto mounted to /media/external BUT Manjaro does some stupid thing under the guise of it being for security where they use a "virtual" setup for external drives where they virtualise the "media" folder thats specifically for externals and changes it to "run/media" So Home Media Server DUMPS all my videos every time I reboot. I can in fstab, mount externals under /mnt/ and it works fine, BUT Ive read you only mount internal drives to mnt. Interesting that This program though seems to perhaps read the fstab setting and not the annoying manjaro virtual setup for externals behind "run/media". Its so hard trying to google it because manjaro support always refers to a level 3 difficulty tutorial on external drives that has no substance to help with this issue lol BUT, I do prefer Manjaro itself. This is the only issue I do have with Manjaro. Other than that, I much prefer it than Mint. Thank you for the link, much appreciated
Oh, and one cool thing with Home Media Server over this one is how you can structure folders. Like I have a Favourite folder and under than can have my own folders like by genre that then has genres in it, or by year with the years in it. I can have my own "categories" like cartoons then have a folder for my son and a folder for me and list our own in them. You do this simply by dragging a movie into the created folder with subfolders. I cant see a way to do that with this. I can create a folder but not "sub folder"?
