Awesome! Glad to hear that worked for you! Yeah, seeing some more options for that would be kinda nice.

Do you have a preroll folder listed in your Plex container settings? You should, and it should be the same as what you created for Rollarr. That was a problem I had too. Rollarr sees your videos, and puts the correct links in Extras (as you said). But if that folder path isn't recognized by Plex, it won't find them. SO if ROllarr is /media/prerolls/, make that same one in Plex.

Have you tried manually adding just one preroll file to the Extra field and seeing if just that one plays? I have a feeling there may be an issue with the path name. If you put in the same path with just one file from the directory, and it doesn't work, then I would guess there is a slight difference in the path names between Plex and Rolarr.

Thanks for the reply @SmithyNithy Got yet another question... is there a way to set up a recurring 'holiday' on my own? I would like to add New Years and a few others, but if I do it in custom, it is only for one year and I would have to remember to redo it every year.

I just found out that to get the Test Connection to work, I had to add the http:// to my ip address along with the port number. After pressing Submit, I go into settings/extras, the actual path that is listed for the current month is in there. But, when I play movies, it doesn't play any of the files in that directory. Plex will play prerolls when I have the actual files listed in the extras field, but it doesn't go looking for files if you just have a directory listed. I also double checked my data.json file after getting the Test Connection to work, and that is still empty (except for the one line as specified in the OP) EDIT: I just found that you have to select the files in the folder when selecting your location. I never new this (it wasn't written anywhere). Once I highlighted all the individual files, it added them correctly to the extra fields. smh

I'm a bit lost and hoped to get some guidance here. I followed the steps in the first post. Created the data.json file in the appropriate directory. Installed the Rollarr docker. I confirmed in my Plex settings that I have the exact same location for my preroll files. Even when I fill out the server location, plex token, default location, I press save and get the OK screen. I press Submit and get the OK screen. If I check the .json file there is no extra info written in it, just the one line I created it with. When I play a movie in Plex, no preroll plays. I've also tried setting up the Monthly, but still no prerolls play. So, besides it just not working for me, couple of questions. What address am I supposed to use for the Plex server. Do I just put the IP address, or no I also need to include the port number (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:32400)? When I press the Test Connection button, nothing happens. Doesn't matter what I have for an address, I get no reaction when I click it. What should I be seeing when I try it? If I create a Monthly schedule, and also a Holiday schedule, will one override the other? Play the Monthly until it reaches a holiday, then play the holiday and go back to monthly afterwards? Cheers!

OK, I can see what you are saying. Thank you for the help!!

But, I cannot access the webserver. I launched Calibre, went into preferences, changed the webserver port from 8081 to 2027, restarted. That IP 172.17.0.8 is not my ISP IP. I believe that is the Bridge IP. If I change over to Host, then the webserver IP changes to my ISP but the GUI reverts back to 8080.

I have other things that use port 8080, thus I wanted to change them to be unique. Works fine in my Windows version. When I've tried using Bridge, Calibre was inaccessable from outside my network. I had to switch to host for it to map to the correct IP. I use a dynamic service, DNS2GO, to map my IP address. I will try installing again. But the way you say to just change the ports sounds exactly like how I do it each time I install.

Here is where I make the port specifications, but it still goes to 8080 to login. 2027 works fine. 🤷‍♂️

Hey Folx! Very new to unraid and docker, and I'm having an issue I hope you can help me out with. I've installed calibre (I used to use it in my Windows server before I upgraded to unraid) I have a couple of problems. First, I used to use port 2028 as my GUI interface. But when I set that in the settings instead of 8080, it still uses 8080 and errors out when I try to access it via 2028 I use 2027 as my server interface, and that works fine. The second issue is I can't get calibre to see my ebook directories. I've tried using the default container paths of /books and /import, and I've also set them to my actual location of /media. If I set them both to /media, I get the error "Error response from daemon: Duplicate mount point: /media." In either case, no matter what I set the mount point too, when I launch calibre, I cannot see my Media directory when setting preferences in the app itself. Can I provide any further info to help diagnose this? EDIT: I think I figured it out. I'm learning. Looks like the default container needs to be unique for every location. Which is annoying, because that isn't how my hard drive directories are set up. Oh well. At least I figure out what the issue was and how to access the data.

There it goes! Whew. Thank you very much for walking me through that. I was totally misunderstanding how the folder/container structure was working.

It should look like this then if I'm reading you correctly

So this is incorrect: I've seen other apps (so I assumed this one too) create whatever folder is listed in Container Path, at the Host Path location. I didn't need to have Computer_Images two deep. So do I make Host Path /mnt/remotes/Computer_Images and leave the container path blank?

So I switched it around. Left it /media in the UI settings, and made it /mnt/remotes/ for the path and /Computer_Images for the container in the docker app itself. No errors when I go to the status, but when I try to run a backup, I get a notice that the backup failed. There are no entries in the Log to say why and there are no new files created in the Computer_Images location.

Ok, so I left the app at /media. Then I launched it's UI and changed to /mnt/remotes/Computer_Images and this is back to the status screen:

Correct, but my problem is that when I DO point it to the Computer_Images location, I get the error shown in the first image. I just posted the second two to show the setup for when it does work to the array, not the NAS.

Hey folx, noob here, running urbackup on an unRaid system. I've been able to get urbackup to launch and run and even make backups. But, I want to change where the backup images are saved. Currently they are saved in my /media folder on the array. I want to instead save them to a shared folder in my QNAP NAS. I've mounted and shared the NAS folder, I can access it with File Explorer on my windows laptop, and I can even browse to it within the unRaid UI. But, when I go into urbackup settings and point it to that shared location, it can't find it. I get this error: urbackup can't seem to see anything under the /mnt folder. I even tried pointing it to the NAS's IP address on my LAN and that was even a greater failure. This is my current working settings for urbackup: Any ideas?

Has this ever been figured out? I'm a new user, just installed Day/Night and am getting the same no address found error.
