My system breakdown as follows.
MainPC - Windows 10, My MS profile/passwords - working PC - location of Jellyfin Server.
Movies 3 - Shared Folder used for Mounted Hard drive
Movies 3B - Shared folder on hard drive with other things on it
Movies 4 - Shared folder on hard drive with other things on it (the problematic one)
TV Shows 11 - Shared Folder used for Mounted Hard drive
Other Movies - Shared hard drive with 3 folders used for certain "movie" content (not porn).
Media - Shared hard drive with several folders used to organize music and Apple compatible versions of movies for IOS devices
Additional shared drives and folders
MediaServer1 - Windows 10, My MS profile/passwords - Main Kodi client
AEW - Shared Folder used for Mounted Hard drive
Movies 1 - Shared Folder used for 10 Mounted Hard drives
Movies 1B - - Shared folder on hard drive with other things on it
TV Shows 101 - Shared folder on hard drive with other things on it
D: - Shared hard drive with several folders used to organize certain media for Jellyfin/Kodi
MediaServer2 - Windows 10, My MS profile/passwords - Secondary Kodi Client
Movies 2 - Shared Folder used for 4 Mounted Hard drives
TV Shows - Shared Folder used for 10 Mounted Hard drives
That is my current setup while I work on a new vault system that will house all hard drives used for my media library and a system dedicated to just running my Jellyfin server. Every share listed above has worked in JF prior to needing to add the Movies 4 location to move around some storage space. Each of the shared folders have either mounted drives or separate folders by type and letter as part of further organization. So example \\MAINPC\Movies 4\Blu-ray Movies Z\Zack and Miri Make a Porno (200 Bluray 1.78\
All shares/folders were added to JF prior to v10 through Dashboard/Libraries/Manage Library where the pop up menu gave to text boxes to enter the media path. The top box, when populated, would return all subfolders in that path and allow you to select down further is needed. The lower box said something about share directory, I can't really remember, but I always filled both boxes with the same share path. Now that lower box is gone in v10.
When attempting to add a new location in v10 and putting the path for my new location into now the only text box available I again see it populated with all subfolders and allows further navigation. This is no matter what manner I enter the path, the SMB share, the computer direct folder, the SMB shared folders mounted as a hard drive, nothing works. 1 shared path, 4 sub-folders, 44 total media folders, JF can't see to add any of them.
