I have installed serviio-server on Synology DS213. The Console on an Windows XP. It works.
I put the shared Folders with "\\192.x.x.x\video". When i want to save, the share Folders change to "/volume1/homes/serviio/\\192.x.x.x\videos"
How can ich change it?
Thank you for help

You're adding your shared folders in Windows notation, but your Serviio server is Linux remember. So you need to express that share as /volume1/videos

Thank you patters,
but the notation is not the problem.
The shared folder is "192.x.x.x/videos/"
If I save the folder, the folder changes to "/volume1/homes/serviio/192.x.x.x/videos".
The videos are in the folder "192.x.x.x./videos" and not in the folder "/volume1/homes/serviio/192.x.x.x/videos".
Have you an idea, how i could save der right folder? Is it possible to change the folder directly, without remote access?
Thank you for Help.

A Linux folder path must contain a / at the beginning. Your storage volume on the NAS is /volume1. So to me it looks like your folder notation is the problem.
If you're asking about using Serviio on the NAS to serve content that's actually on a different computer then I doubt that's even possible without mounting the share in Linux first.

Yes it is right aboute the "/" at the beginning of a share in linux systems.
I don´t no why the folders changes from "/192.x.x.x./videos" to "/volume1/homes/serviio/192.x.x.x/videos",
but i have solved the problem at follows.
I put a softlink in the DNAS-folder "/volume1/homes/serviio/" with a link to the "video" folder on the NAS.
Now i can do in the serviio console the folder "videos", when i save it, the folder change to "/volume1/homes/serviio/videos".
At least the serviioserver find the videofiles.
Thank you for all help which i found in this forum.

I have also installed on DS213, followed the instructions verbatim from the serviio site
http://pcloadletter.co.uk/2012/01/25/se ... o-package/. Installed consol only on XP machine. Success all the way to trying to add my libraries. No matter what path I try, it does not seem that any files are found. Both lights are red. The path I am using is /volume1/video and /volume1/music. In I have given Serviio User r/w access to both shared folders. Any thoughts on what I might be missing?

How do you create this "softlink"? I am hoping this might solve my problem as well.
