Thank you for the reply…
Here is an example of what’s giving me fits:
Root Folders
Path - This shows the path to your media library
Free Space - This is the free space being reported to Sonarr from the system
Unmapped Folders - These are folders that do not have a Series associated to it
The X at the end will remove this root path
Add Root Folder - This allows you to select a root path for a place to either place new imported downloads into this folder or to allow Sonarr to scan existing media.
Non-Windows Users:
* If you're using an NFS mount ensure nolock is enabled.
* If you're using an SMB mount ensure nobrl is enabled.
This is just one example. The simple fact is that this tells me nothing. I guess I should understand what nsf or smb means and kinda do but ‘nobrl’ or ‘nolock’ means nothing to me and do not exist on my system as far as I can tell. “add root folder” does me no good because, when I enter the actual address, I am told it doesn’t exist!
I can go through this all over the place. You tell me its so easy but not for me. It also says, in one place that the downloader (i assume this is the the download client) refers to the category address which should NOT be the root folder and, then, again, says it should be (I can send that one to you if you want).
What I really need to know is how to make the real address of where shows are acceptable to sonarr. My shows are at /mnt/3tb/TV my category address is /home/greg/Video/tv - neither is acceptable. I suspect the problem may be in sabnzbdplus but can’t figure it out. In “missing root file” it gets even better! It tells me that the root folder address is in some kind of list but doesn’t say anything about where or what that might be.
If you want I can send you copies of every ‘root’, ‘add root folder’ etc. Not once can I find what you say is there.
I am not trying to be a smart ass but I am really tired of this. I know its out there because I have been through this before but its been several years.
The embarrassing thing is that I did this dance before, several years ago and that has become some kind of reference but noplace in that one does it say, right out loud, how one can setup a root address.
I am, obviously confused. I can understand your fury but, instead of that why can’t you simply tell me how to setup a root address or tell me where to go - if its so simple!
