Qnap NAS Folder in Hassio Media Browser

Hi everyone,

How can I integrate my NAS folder into Hassio?
So that I can access it from the media browser.
For example music.

Thank you.

Nobody here who could possibly help?

Hi Kabala,

I am no expert in this feature, but my understanding is that other integrations need to support this new media player browser feature. So, in your case i think (it’s just a hunch) that the samba integration would need to be updated to support this new feature. Of if you use supervised install on generic linux then perhaps you can mount the share & expose that in home assistant. I am pretty sure you can manually configure the media browser feature of home assistant to include different folders.

In my case i have an external plex server on my network & even this cant yet be exposed to the media browser feature. It will require the plex integration to be updated to support this feature.

In short, it might be possible if you use non-hassos version.

Thanks for your detailed explanation.
I currently have a Qnap server, Plex server is also installed.
Hassio is installed on a Raspberry pi 4.
How do I have to go about it to get it to work?
I really have no idea.

Thank you.

I have the same problem.

Do you solve this situation?

I successfully mounted my OMV NAS folder with that command:

mount -t cifs //192.168.2.136/nas/music /usr/share/hassio/media -o user=YOURLOGIN,password=YOURPASS

Also install nfs-common and cifs-utils:

sudo apt install nfs-common

sudo apt install cifs-utils

BTW. My Hassio is on Docker.
