Hello... Sorry to drudge up an old thread, but I've been pulling my hair out over this for a few weeks and just can't get past it. I'm running Manjaro KDE, trying to mount my unraid shares so I can read/write. Here's what I CAN do: I can browse the shares directly by entering "\\vault" into the file browser (dolphin). This gets converted into "smb://vault", and I'm able to browse/write to all my share exactly as I would expect. I can create shortcuts to folders using this structure, and everything works fine within the file browser. The issue is, I can't set applications to write to those paths. So, everything I'm reading online (this thread included) points me to fstab. So, I've tried literally every permutation in this thead and have had no success. The "noperms" option throws an error for me, but everything else "mounts successfully" and then I can't read or write. However, I CAN do "sudo mkdir test" in the command prompt, which works when I give the *computer admin password* which makes no sense to me. I'm so close, but I just cannot get programs to write to my shares directly. Please help me 😰 Thank you very much. Happy to provide any extra info that might be needed... EDIT: I must be an idiot or something, I finally got it working when I changed to do the mount in my mnt folder instead of my users folder. Not sure if there's some reason that would cause an issue or if it was just something with the permissions modifications I'd done to that previous folder, but it works now! Used the exact line from the above user... pretty much! Thanks! I'll leave this here in case it happens to help some fellow struggle-er in the future

Ahhh, they're just the library names... so if I wanted the documentary portion to work, I'd have to split out all my documentaries into separate libraries. Got it. Thank you very much for clarifying that. And let me know if I can help at all on the all locations map, though I'm guessing it'd be more difficult to collaborate. Mostly just didn't mean to shove that off on you, thank you for your help though! And thanks to @hogfixer too!

Am I the only one who can't get the "Documentary Shows" and "Anime Shows" counters working? Not sure how it's pulling this genre information, or if I could change it to pull a different genre, but mine just show N/A: I'd love to get these working and be able to tweak them if possible. Haven't been able to dig up anything on how to do that though. Also, I'd love to add a map that shows all the locations of the IP addresses I've ever streamed to (not just the one's I'm actively streaming to) if possible. Any help is appreciated! This is so cool though, thanks to everyone who put time/effort into it. What a wonderful tool.

Thank you very much!

Curious if the status on this has changed recently? Due to quarantine I've been doing more simultaneous plex streams at once (sharing with friends/family), and I'm outgrowing the Ryzen 7 1700 I've been using since I built this server a few years ago. I'm in the process of looking for a new rack mounted case so I can expand my number of drives, and I was thinking about switching to use my RTX 2070 super to handle the streams (this site estimates it could do 27 streams... which should be plenty I hope: https://www.elpamsoft.com/?p=Plex-Hardware-Transcoding) I haven't looked into running plex in a windows VM as the above user mentioned... should I? I'm assuming jumping through a couple hoops to get GPU working is worth it considering how cost effective (again, I'm assuming?) GPUs are at handling the encoding? Said another way, it seems like it would make a lot more sense to buy an expensive GPU for handling video streaming rather than an expensive CPU, right? I'd still love to keep running plex in docker, but I'd definitely consider switching if that seems to be the general consensus among other people trying to do this kind of thing. Thanks in advance for any advice.
