I have 2 questions about unassigned devices: 1. Whenever Sabnzbd downloads any new file I need to do $ chmod -R 777 /mnt/disks/2TB/Downloads So I can rename and move the files around. Everything else seems fine, is there a way to avoid that? 2. Emby uses real time monitoring to fix subtitles, cover art and nfo metadata about episodes that are downloaded. It works for everything else on unraid except for my drive that is Unassigned. Everytime something new is there I have to ask emby to look for new content. Is there a solution to this?

Thank you!

Can we please get an update on unrar for nerd tools? Please?

Just wanted to report that I have upgraded my server to 8gb. That's the max this motherboard supports. I can now use the settings DZMM uses without any problem since I don't have any VM, all I have on my unraid server is Sabnzbd, Sonarr, Emby and rclone. Also my internet on my second home got an upgrade from 50mb to 240mb, so this improves how I can access my server. Now I have to ask I tried to ask this on Jriver forums but they had no idea. I have several complete UHD Blu-rays on my google drive, so that's the entire disc, not a single mkv file. If I try to play it from the cloud using anything on Windows 10 (Jriver, DVDFab Media Player) that would display the menus it takes almost 2-3 minutes to show the first menu and 1-2 minutes to show the next. After the movie starts playing is fine. So it's not a Jriver problem since DVDfab performes the same. I'm accessing my files using SMB to share the rclone mount. On the other side of this, the oppo 203 blu-ray player can show the first menu in 15 seconds! So I guess it has something to do with Windows screwing things up. All this is just to ask, I would like to try NFS from unraid to Windows. I got mount_rclone or mount_unionfs to show up as a drive on Windows 10 but inside the folder googleVFS there's nothing. As if NFS could not see the files. Is it possible to use NFS with rclone?

GorOps, that's a freaking coincidence. Last night was my first time streaming a remux from the cloud using the script provided here. Result, the entire server crashed and had to be forced shutdown and restarted. I have a very weak computer for unraid, a J1900 with 4GB of ram. I tweaked the script. I removed the buffer size limit off, changed buffer size to 512 instead of 1G. I removed all the upload folder stuff as I don't understand why this is needed, all my uploaded to gdrive is running rclone copy. I don't use a team drive so I removed it. And one thing that was causing problems for me is that the user script was set to run at the start of the array and I changed it to start of the array only (the last option on the drop down list). Also I my crypt mount is called secure: and the mountcheck file I first created was giving me some trouble, so I created a new one called mountcheck2. This is the tweaked version: #!/bin/bash sleep 10 ####### Check if script is already running ########## if [[ -f "/mnt/user/appdata/other/rclone/rclone_mount_running" ]]; then echo "$(date "+%d.%m.%Y %T") INFO: Exiting script already running." exit else touch /mnt/user/appdata/other/rclone/rclone_mount_running fi ####### End Check if script already running ########## sleep 10 ####### Start rclone mounts ########## # create directories for rclone mount and unionfs mount mkdir -p /mnt/user/appdata/other/rclone mkdir -p /mnt/user/mount_rclone/google_vfs mkdir -p /mnt/user/mount_unionfs/google_vfs ####### Start rclone gdrive mount ########## sleep 10 # check if gdrive mount already created if [[ -f "/mnt/user/mount_rclone/google_vfs/mountcheck2" ]]; then echo "$(date "+%d.%m.%Y %T") INFO: Check rclone vfs already mounted." else echo "$(date "+%d.%m.%Y %T") INFO: mounting rclone vfs." sleep 10 rclone mount --rc --allow-other --buffer-size 512M --dir-cache-time 72h --drive-chunk-size 256M --fast-list --log-level INFO --vfs-read-chunk-size 128M secure: /mnt/user/mount_rclone/google_vfs & # check if mount successful # slight pause to give mount time to finalise sleep 10 if [[ -f "/mnt/user/mount_rclone/google_vfs/mountcheck2" ]]; then echo "$(date "+%d.%m.%Y %T") INFO: Check rclone gdrive vfs mount success." else echo "$(date "+%d.%m.%Y %T") CRITICAL: rclone gdrive vfs mount failed - please check for problems." rm /mnt/user/appdata/other/rclone/rclone_mount_running exit fi fi ####### End rclone gdrive mount ########## ####### Start unionfs mount ########## if [[ -f "/mnt/user/mount_unionfs/google_vfs/mountcheck2" ]]; then echo "$(date "+%d.%m.%Y %T") INFO: Check successful, unionfs already mounted." else unionfs -o cow,allow_other,direct_io,auto_cache,sync_read /mnt/user/mount_rclone/google_vfs=RW /mnt/user/mount_unionfs/google_vfs if [[ -f "/mnt/user/mount_unionfs/google_vfs/mountcheck2" ]]; then echo "$(date "+%d.%m.%Y %T") INFO: Check successful, unionfs mounted." else echo "$(date "+%d.%m.%Y %T") CRITICAL: unionfs Remount failed." rm /mnt/user/appdata/other/rclone/rclone_mount_running exit fi fi ####### End Mount unionfs ########## exit Also I really would like some input from DZMM about the state of my setup here.

I was looking exactly to it and found this thread from last year. I assume, based on your guide for rclone is that unionFS is the only option for unraid? That's a shame. There's really no way to install MergerFS with unraid?

For some reason I can't use EmbyCon (Kodi Add-On) with Jellyfin. There are many reports that it works fine. When I try to log in from EmbyCon I get connection refused.

Also Jellyfin binds to a different IP address compared to Emby. Jellyfin 172.17.0.4 as local, while Emby uses the correct one 192.168.0.198. I also had to change the default TCP port to 8097 so it would not conflict with Emby. I`m just saying this for the sake of saying because I even tried disabling emby and having jellyfin at it's default port maping and the problem still persists.

I need some help figuring this out. I run an unraid server at home1 with my router as a OpenVPN tunnel so I can connect to my home network. This is running an emby server using the emby unraid docker. At my Home2, I have a Windows 10 PC that I have installed Emby server and I connect to my Home1 VPN network to be able to access my files. At Home2, I set my library to \\192.xxx.xxx.xxx\library And I'm also setting the metadata to \\192.xxx.xxx.xxx\appdata\binhex-emby\metadata\ When adding the library to my windows 10 server I uncheck all the boxes so it doesn't download anything. So why it's not using the metadata provided by the server? It takes sometime to scan everything and it seems it's downloading everything all over again. Just to add some more info that maybe help someone to point out what I'm doing wrong: This is on my Windows 10 server side: Paths Cache: \\192.168.0.198\appdata\binhex-emby\cache\ Logs: C:\Users\Bahamut\AppData\Roaming\Emby-Server\programdata\logs Metadata: \\192.168.0.198\appdata\binhex-emby\metadata\ Transcoding temporary files: C:\Users\Bahamut\AppData\Roaming\Emby-Server\programdata\transcoding-temp This on unraid side: Paths Cache: /config/cache Logs: /config/logs Metadata: /config/metadata Transcoding temporary files: /config/transcoding-temp

@DZMM. Your setup is working without a hitch here and I'm sorry if this has been discussed in any of the 20 pages of this thread but, would you recommend using a cache for media files with your setup? I think I can understand it more, in your setup you have gdrive, crypt, and I'm wondering about adding a disk cache. I don't use Plex, I actually use kodi with embycon, which uses emby library and direct stream all the files so no transcoding is necessary. Would you recommend this? I really would like to hear from someone way more experienced if that would be a good solution or not. I think the amount of API hits to the server would be greatly reduced but it would also complicated even further the entire setup. Maybe this would be something for setups with +1000 movies and +500 tv shows?

I knew it would have an elegant solution! Thanks DZMM.

Thanks for clearing it up. I'm using only the mount and unmount script you provided. All I wanted was to be able to access the files from outside the array and stream those. And as a bonus be able to edit and even execute some .exe files. I'm testing streaming old games which are light from the cloud. I'm going to ask the most retarded question but what do you guys use to do the rclone copy command? My server is headless. If I access it with a browser I can open a terminal and output the command. But if I close the browser on my other computer I can't check the copy process. If there a way to log into the array. Do rclone copy, leave it. Get back to it the next day (maybe from another computer) and still access the same terminal session?

thanks! Going to use it.

It worked! But I'm confused what should I use? /mnt/user/mount_rclone/google_vfs or /mnt/user/mount_unionfs/google_vfs If I add in krusader docker settings it can see both. On SMB using unionFS I can write to the share. Using mount_rclone I can't. Is that normal or I did something wrong here?

I just gave your script a go but Krusader can't find any files. I'm able to read and write using a smb share but Krusader can't. I haven't tried other containers but I believe it would be the same result.

Hey, does someone know how to make the mount point writable from a smb share? I'm monting like this: rclone mount --allow-other --dir-cache-time 96h --drive-chunk-size 32M --log-level INFO --log-file /var/log/rclone.log --timeout 1h --dir-perms 0777 --file-perms 0777 --umask 002 --rc secure: /mnt/disks/gdrive & And I've tried these smb settings: [secure-cloud] path = /mnt/disks/gdrive comment = browseable = yes # Public public = yes writeable = yes vfs objects = [gdrive] comment = share path = /mnt/disks/gdrive browseable = yes read only = no writeable = yes create mask = 0771 directory mask = 0771 valid users = unraid And I keep getting no permission error. Any ideas? I don't plan to upload like this, I'm aware of rclone copy but sometimes I need to edit my files in the cloud.

But... What if you stream a 50GB ISO? If you set vfs-cache-mode full? This downloads the entire 50GB before opening. I believe mode writes download huge chunks of the file too. Also it offers options like -dir-cache Cache time is the option to flush the cache folder isn't it? If all happens in RAM as you said why would those options exist? Is this for uploading only? I don't understand. I'm a big noob when comes to servers and rclone, I know, but with my very limited knowledge this doesn't seem possible to work 100% in RAM. It must put something on the drive while downloading. Doesn't it?

This guide is, at the same time, awesome and overwhelming. I'm looking into just mounting rclone gdrive, share it over smb and have everything happening in my cache drive. My question is, how do I make sure everything is happening in the cache drive? Do I have to make a share in the cache drive? and I point with rclone mount --cache-dir /mnt/cache/gdrive ?
