Cant download to my Synology NAS drive.

Post by BaracudaDee »

Hi,

I have sabnzbd and sickbeard installed as an addon on my HTPC running OpenElec XBMC. Unfortunately I don't know how to get
my downloads post processed onto my Synology NAS drive.

I can seem the Synology directory needed. In the "Completed Download Folder" field I have tried,

//THEVAULT/video/downloads/
/volume1/video/downloads/

"THEVAULT" is the name of my Synology drive. Both of these have resulted with the errors,

Cannot create directory //THEVAULT/video/downloads
Cannot create directory /volume1/video/downloads

when I try the browse option I get several folder, none of which point to my NAS drive.

If someone could tell me where I am going wrong that would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

On the OpenElec, go the command prompt, and ... find where the NAS is. This should help:

Code: Select all

df -h
It will show your mounted disks. If the NAS is not there, you have to mount it. If OpenElec has Nautilus, mounting a remote share is not that difficult.
