Thanks, I hadn't thought of that, the more complex and, likely, impossible solution was the one that came to mind first.
I'm testing it out now and it appears to be working.
Hi,
Unfortunately my server is located in a place that is not convenient for swapping discs. I don't have much experience with UNRAID or know much about servers/networks in general. I was wondering if I could use my optical drives from my windows PC over the network in UNRAID (and this MakeMKV container). I was able to share one of my drives as a network share in windows. Using the unassigned devices plugin I can get it to appear in UNRAID as a networked drive in /mnt/remotes/xxx.xxx.x.xxx_AsusBD (my.IP.Address_ShareName). I can access the file system of the disc in UNRAID but unfortunately it does not appear as a device and does not have a srx or sgx assignment. Does anyone know if what I am trying to do is even possible? Has anyone successfully been able to map networked optical drives for use in this container? Running down and up three flights of stairs every time I need to swap discs is getting a bit old.
I would understand if it's not possible, I was mostly just wondering if anyone more capable than I am has had a similar issue and was able to come up with a solution.
Thank you
