Yes, you can use a networked location. You have to address it differently than a local drive. You use what is called a UNC location. It looks something like this: \\computer_name\share_name. The computer name could also be an IP address. You also have to make sure that Serviio has the proper permissions to access the network location. By default, Serviio runs as a local service on your computer, which has very little network permissions. Most people change the service to run under their personal user account instead, when then gives Serviio the same permissions that you have as the computer user. How to change that depends on your operating system.
