I'm really new to this freenas I'm running stable 9.10 I've found a few documents telling me how to setup a freenas and emby media server.
But just about all of them fail to ad making it work.
I some how figured out how to setup the windows file share and got that working. and I can access the share from my computer and my Blueray player.
So i know that part is working. (my bluery can access CIFS shares. so I'm guessing its accessing it that way.
Anyway back to my issue.
I got emby plugin installed and running. I configured a jail to what I have seen many other doucments point to doing. and I still can not see the folders from emby.
I put in the folder location in emby and it says it cant see it.
Now in emby I put in the SMB share path correct?
or do I put the Jail path?
also do I need to create user accounts and passwords.
I wonder if I'm wasting my time on testing this. All I really wanted to do. was to create a NAS that I could hook up to the TV and play the video files. but I'm not even sure I can do that with this.
