Cannot add multimedia folders?

Post by RobSys »

Hi...

I cannot add any media folders under multimedia management...

Under the "media folder" tab, I can add my multimedia folder but when I select "apply" the folder entry disappears... I cannot use any of the media stations.

Can anyone help?

I've just started searching the forums, as I too have the exact same problem. I add any of my shared folders, hit Apply and it disappears from the list. If I select the "Media Folder" option from within the Shared Folders settings the same happens - I hit Ok and when I re-open the folder properties, its reset back to not being set.

Fixed it.

Resorted to IT support 101 and turned it off and on again...

Go into Control Panel -> Multimedia Management -> Media Library and click on the "Deactivate Media Library" button. Wait a short while, then click on "Activate Media Library" button.

After this, mine all works correctly and has picked up the various media folders on my NAS.
