Hello
I've installed Jellyfin via apps on TrueNAS, which is running fine. I've yet to move my data to my TrueNAS which is the plan down the line.
I'd like to start using Jellyfin with my current media files located on my Synology Diskstation DS413j, however I'm having no luck connecting to the folder.
I've tried adding the network folder as my Synology (lets say \\192.168.1.101\volume2) then on the above folder I added the directory I'd like to share, for example "Movies", however I'm unable to connect. Jellyfin stating
After some searching I tried enabling NFS with NFSv4 support on Synology and gave permission for the IP of TrueNAS to access the volume, assuming there's a permission issue. Still no luck with that..
I'm assuming I've got a permission issue or I'm typing the location incorrectly or missing something?
After searching I keep reading the directory needs to be mounted to the OS? As in I need to mount the Synology folder to TrueNAS for then Jellyfin to access it? (here) But that does not seem right. I'm wondering if I am simply doing the syntax wrong on the URL and folder
Do I add \ for the folders, do I add before or after the IP? For example "\\192.168.1.101\volume2" or "\\192.168.1.101\volume2\" ?

Quote:Shared network folder: If this folder is shared on your network, supplying the network share path can allow clients on other devices to access media files directly. For example, \\server or \\192.168.1.101.
