Adding a separate library for 3D Movies

Post by Kryptonick »

I've installed YAMS last night, today I added AdGuard and Homarr and I'm pretty happy with the way things are.

However: most of my Plex watching is done on a regular TV. A bit of it is done watching 3D movies using a VR Headset. I'd like to separate out my library of 3D movies so we don't end up trying to watch them on a flat TV.

As things are my docker-compose.yaml has

Code: Select all

    volumes:
      - ${MEDIA_DIRECTORY}/movies:/data/movies
      - ${MEDIA_DIRECTORY}/tvshows:/data/tvshows
      - ${INSTALL_DIRECTORY}/config/${MEDIA_SERVICE}:/config

I tried adding

Code: Select all

- ${MEDIA_DIRECTORY}/3Dmovies:/data/3Dmovies

But I'm unable to browse to the 3DMovies folder when adding a library in Plex.

The current file structure is:

Code: Select all

library
	- 3DMovies
	- books
	- movies
	- music
	- tvshows

library is the media directory.

Is there an easy way to add the 3DMovies folder such that it appears in Plex?

Hey @Kryptonick!

According to your file structure, the mountpoint should be:

Code: Select all

- ${MEDIA_DIRECTORY}/3DMovies:/data/3Dmovies

(notice the uppercase "M" in the left hand side of the :)

Remember that "3Dmovies" is not the same as "3DMovies".

That should work.

Cheers!
