    Windows: Read library from SMB share

    With Jellyfin Server on a Windows host, I wish to access an SMB share.

    AFAIK, Jellyfin does not support directly providing a network path.

    https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/admini...e/#storage

    Quote:A network storage device that is using samba or NFS must be directly mounted to the OS. The Jellyfin database should also be stored locally and not on a network storage device.

    According to this post, you can setup a scheduled task to mount the share to the OS for the SYSTEM user.  Or whatever privlidged user the tray app runs as.
