I have a dedicated nas but its low power so i wana use unraid plex till i get new server to combined the 2 , so issue im having is i wana add movies from the nas to plex on unraid but if i use /nas/videos/ect as location it finds nothink , i only managed to get it to work on a windows pc

 

Any advise ? I know its network related and unraid work read from network nas

 

Thanks craig

Unassigned Devices plugin will let you mount SMB shares.

Dude i love you better than i hoped for

 

Ummm /mnt seems empty , no folders if you use plex to navigate or manual type

You'd probably want to mount the remote NAS share using Unassigned Devices. Then map a container volume to it in your Plex docker setup. That way Plex can see it.

I remote smb 4 folder shares with show up and can be explored via /mnt/ but plex seems it as no folders , unassigned part is empty and see no way to add device

Shutdown and restart the Plex docker.

Dockers will only see mounts that were available when the docker service starts so try restaring the docker service (not just the docker) after adding your SMB mounts.

i got it working i had to install it as a plugin , but all seems fine , was only temp fix as now moving from nas to unraid due to have much faster it its to read files ect cheers for all your help
