Library Server serves only the LIBRARY and not the media? [SOLVED]

(1/4) > >>

pepar:
With an always on MC Library Server, do clients read the content from the NAS (unRAID in my case) and only get library details about the content from the Server?

It must come from the mc server, as it works without connection to the drive where the actual files reside.

mattkhan:
If the client has access to the content at exactly the same path, it is possible to configure it to read the content directly from that location. Note this currently implies that client runs the same OS as the server (or at least the same family, windows vs nix).

pepar:
Client could mount the Samba share (unRAID) but is currently only sharing the library via the Library Server.  If client isn't reading the file directly from the Samba with that scheme, I'd prefer to have it do that.

aoqw76:
Check media network / client options / play local file....
That should enable the option as described by Matt above.
