Can videos be located in multiple locations? No problem. My videos are spread across 7 different folders on four different hard drives. Just add each location, and check the media type (audio, video, image).
Yes, you can use external sources, such as a USB drive connected to the computer or a shared network folder on another device. With network sources, permissions become more of a problem. On Windows, Serviio runs as a local service user, which does not have network privileges. The simplest way to fix that is to change the user account the service runs under. For Mac or Linux, I can't speak to how that might work, but it is possible.
