I have a screenshot but it appears I can’t attach it here. I don’t know what I’m missing, because all the permissions look right and before the last update I used your method with those permissions to transfer similar files from the same system. I wanted to use FTP because there are some large ISO files stored that I need to move off the old Thecus Nas before I retire it. ![]() I fired up a laptop and had no problem copying a few files over. However, when I tried to FTP the files it failed, Task manager said I didn’t have the privileges required to move or copy (I tried both) the files. I connected with my admin login to the NAS I wanted to transfer files from and could navigate the file tree and open files. I found that out after a series of attempts to change things that weren’t the issue. For some reason, the format of the connection name is critical, not the server name, but the name you give to the connection you wish to manage. after doing that, the instructions say to answer all of the required blocks, but they aren’t that self-explanatory. The icon is no longer next to the tools icon, it’s now a large orange circle in the top RH corner as shown in the attachment.īefore using it you must install HybridMount free from their app store. ![]() If I use the access key from MC running on my Mac, it connects to said Mac and everything works fine.It helped sort of anyway. When I do this, the remote can access the library but not the Yamaha renderer. To access the NAS install of MC on both Gizmo and JRemote, I have to enter 192.168.1.195 instead of the access key. My home network and everything connected to it resides at 192.168.1.x, and while I use a web browser to access the MC UI of the NAS install by visiting 192.168.1.195, the associated library server access key directs Gizmo to 10.0, where it finds nothing. This test alerted me to something that could potentially be the culprit for not finding my Yamaha renderer when connected to the version of MC running from a container on my NAS. I successfully got JRemote and Gizmo controlling MC installed on my Mac, rendering audio from my NAS to my Yamaha receiver. I'm just hoping someone on this forum might have some experience in the matter. During this process, I've discovered support doesn't extend to running MC from a NAS, and I can accept that. It's been a learning curve for me at every step. Is my impatience starting to show? I've been putting in significant hours for a week and a half, but I'm prepared for longer if there's light at the end of the tunnel. The thread was suggesting the router could be the culprit - I'll investigate that some more. I did read somewhere else in this forum though, that BubbleUPnP uses a different renderer search method than MC. However, that doesn't explain why the Media Renderer Analyser only detects my Yamaha receiver 5% of the time, unless the analysis is somehow performed through MC on the network? I've even run the analysis while playing music to the renderer via MinimServer/BubbleUPnP and still found nothing. The key difference between the way I'm running MinimServer and MC, is that MC is running from a docker container whereas MinimServer is an app that doesn't need to be run from QNAP's Container Station. Now, I can play music from my NAS to my phone via Gizmo, but I can't access or stream to my Yamaha receiver. UPDATE: I found info on the web that said to enter the address where Media Center resides instead of the key. It's trying to connect to whereas Media Center is accessible on my home network at a different address. ![]() The key is correct, because if I enter an incorrect key, the authentication doesn't make it to the 'attempting connection' phase. Please double-check that you have entered the correct key, and that the server and your connection are working. There was a problem connecting to the server. ![]() However, the Gizmo app on my Android device cannot connect to the server - it gives the following error: It worked fine and I successfully set up a library - I have Media Center running on my NAS and I can access it via a browser. I ended up finding this handy guide to set up the container to access folders outside the container folder:
