Hello,
I am currently trying to get my Plex server to play back the movies files from my NAS.
I did already mount the NAS to HA, and it’s showing up in Media-Browser. I mounted it at /media/videos.
But once I try to select the fold /media/videos in plex as a media library, no movies or sub-folders are showing up. I think it is because it is only mounted there but not actually saved on the harddrive like a movie would be which I had to transfer to it via Samba Share (which I tried and it worked).
Does anyone have a clue on how I would be able to resolve this issue?
My hardware is quite old, but is capable of one or two 1080p streams.
I’m probably adding a gpu for better transcoding later down the line but for now it works I guess.
I am using cpu transcoding on a wimpy i3 540 @ 3.7GHz (old computer from somewhere).
For that hardware one or two 1080p streams are quite good I’d say.
I got a pi3b with usb storage working fine so far. It’s only a few hours old though, and not much else on it.
Seems to be able to cast fine, although I have only briefly tried two streams.
Plex server in HAOS. Media mounted via usb HDD in media location. Casting to chromecasts, or playing directly on an iPad Web page.
