Plex and movie content library

Support and Troubleshooting
1

I have successful installed the Plex app and are now trying to add some movies to Plex library. First I tried to add some movies to the Videos folder in the Files app, but could not figure out how to select it from Plex lib. Then I added the movies to the Downloads, in the Files app

.

When selecting the location, during adding the Library in Plex, I can see the (a) downloads folder, but not a Videos folder. How can I select the Videos folder?

Hi! I found a solution.
You need to edit file /home/umbrel/umbrel/app-data/plex/docker-compose.yml using the terminal or ssh. Volumes should look like this

    volumes:
      - ${APP_DATA_DIR}/data/config:/config
      - ${APP_DATA_DIR}/data/transcode:/transcode
      - ${UMBREL_ROOT}/home/Downloads:/download
      # Just add the following line:
      - ${UMBREL_ROOT}/home/Videos:/videos

You can even add other folders such as external devices (which was my case) adding:
- ${UMBREL_ROOT}$/external:/external.

Hope it helped.
