Shane Israel Posted October 30, 2022 Author Share Posted October 30, 2022 @NeldonadomI'm honestly not an unRaid expert so I don't know if using a cache vs not would be the cause of this issue. In my case I have all my videos on a share that is not using a cache. This is what I map in /mnt/user/files/videos I could see this being an issue if you are not mapping in a path off of your /mnt/user directory. Quote Link to comment
Keek Uras Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 Hey there! Giving this docker a go but it doesn't seem to scan folders recursively. Any chance that could be added or will be added in the future? I keep my video files organized and don't want them all dumped into one folder. Thanks! ~K Quote Link to comment

Thanks! ~K Fireshare already handles scanning for video files recursively. You don't need to have them all in a single folder. However, on the frontend it will categorize all your videos based on the top level folders name. So if your media is structured like this... /media/game_1/awesome_clips/my_awesome_game_1_clip.mp4 /media/game_1/funny_clips/my_funny_clip.mp4 /media/game_1/random_clip.mp4 /media/game_2/awesome_clips/my_awesome_game_2_clip.mp4 /media/game_2/weird_stuff/weird_clip.mp4 The front-end web app will give you these categories that all of your clips will show up under. game_1/ my_awesome_game_1_clip my_funny_clip random_clip game_2/ my_awesome_game_2_clip weird_clip Quote Link to comment

It is working. Thanks. Quote Link to comment
Cheezelz Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 I've since deleted some of the videos that were originally scanned and located by Fireshare, but now they are obviously showing up as "FILE MISSING". How can I scan for files that are no longer present or even just instruct it which files are no longer there? Quote Link to comment
Shane Israel Posted August 17, 2023 Author Share Posted August 17, 2023 (edited) @Cheezelz Fireshare uses its database as the source of truth. So if you don't delete your files using fireshare it will think that the file is missing (i.e maybe a drive didn't mount, or it moved, etc, etc). So in your case to remedy the issue, you can do this in one of two ways currently. 1. On every file in Fireshare that says "File Missing" click the edit button (pencil icon) and choose "Delete". This will delete the file and all associated data (thumbnail, symlink, db entry). 2. If you have too many "Missing File" files that you don't want to have to manually delete using method 1, you can instead stop the fireshare container and then delete the "db.sqlite" file located in your fireshare appdata directory. Then start the container again. This will require that fireshare re-scans all your files. You will also lose all of your view counts on your files.

Yeah that second option sounds great, thanks for the info! Quote Link to comment
