It would be awesome if there was a native setup option to link the HA Media Browser to a remote folder such as a NAS share.
I have GB’s of music on my NAS and being able to directly play these via the HA Media Browser would be great.
I’ve seen various threads talking of work-arounds to get this functionality but it really should be in-built to HA, configurable from the GUI.

Greetings,
i would like to ask for Feature request to be able to mount NAS share.
I guess through systemd with some refresh if the NAS is available, remount automaticaly.
As for now i made a tutorial for a workaround which is not ideal as after update i need to do all the same steps again.

I upvoted both. I want to be able to use MotionEye or similar add-on and use external storage. My setup is not designed, or really capable of easily adding a USB connected hard drive, and I have 40TB (4x 10TB) in my Synology 918+ that I want to utilise.
I do use HassOS and Home Assistant. Don’t want to muck around with docker and stuff like that. I prefer to keep it as simple as possible.
