Serviio for Mac not able to add folder from external drives

Hi,

I'm wondering if anybody can help me. I am trying to stream video from my iMac, running OS 10.6.8 to my WDTV Live. All of the movies that I am trying to stream are on an external drive and when I press on "Add local" from the library tab, my external drive does not show up in the drop down list. I tried the "Add path", but I think I might be doing it wrong, cause it doesn't work.

I thank you in advance for your help

Chris

K I found out how Serviio works with external drives. If your trying to add an external drive to Serviio and it is not showing up in the drop down list when you press Add local, you can follow these instructions and it will lead you to them.
- Choose your Macintosh HD or your main drive on your machine,
- then scroll down to a folder called Volumes.
All of your drives are all there and you can add which one you want to your library. Hope this helps someone who's a little bit lost like I was. I must admit this was a bit more confusing than the PC version.

Hope this helps.
