Indexed Folder
By default, media files within the photo, video, and music shared folders are indexed by Media Library. If you want DMA devices and DSM's photo, video, or music applications to access more files on your DiskStation, you can add more indexed folders here.
To add an indexed folder:
-
Click Create.
-
In the window that appears, give the folder a name that will be seen by DMA devices and DSM applications in the Name field.
-
Click Select, browse to a folder you want to index, and then click OK.
-
In the File Type section, tick the checkboxes to specify which types of media files will be indexed. DMA devices and DSM applications can only browse and play media files that match the specified file types.
-
Click OK and then click Save.
Note:
-
Remote folders mounted using File Station cannot be added as indexed folders.
-
You can add up to 100 indexed folders on your DiskStation.
To edit an indexed folder:
-
Select the folder on the folder list, and then click Edit.
-
Make changes to the settings. (see To add an indexed folder for detailed information.)
-
Click OK and then click Save.
To remove folder(s) from the list of indexed folders:
-
Select the folder(s) on the folder list, and then click Delete. (Press and hold Shift or Ctrl while making multiple selections.)
-
Click Yes and then click Save.
Note:
-
Deleting folders doesn't actually remove them from your DiskStation. It only prevents DMA devices and DSM applications from browsing and playing their contents.
