That was left over when I was learning how to mount my NAS, just never removed it. Glad you caught it. Perhaps you can edit those instructions.

thanks

Not sure what you mean by this? how was the volume mounted twice?

Thanks clarkss12.

So, I did what you advised, changed the settings so they matched my ip adresses etc.

I'm guessing it will work for folders more than one level below "volume1" right?
Once you reboot the openelec and the folders are created in storage, if you navigate to them via ssh should you see the contents of the folder on the synology using ls?
should these mounted folders be seen via windows explorer when looking at the openelec box?

Hi guys,

I have a Wetek Play running LibreELEC Krypton which contains two DVB-S2 receivers.
I would like to record the resulting recordings on my Synology NAS.
I have followed the wiki entry here:

Mounting network shares - OpenELEC

But I can't get it to work. the script creates something in multi-user.target.wants and what looks like a directory is added in the /storage directory but there is no link to the actual folder on the NAS. I have a text file in there and it doesnt show when I look in the new directory in /storage.

As you can see by what I am writing I am far from being a Linux expert. I would be grateful if someone could take a look at the mounting file and tell me where I have gone wrong or give me some suggestions.
The Synology NAS share is 'video' and I am trying to mount a folder within that share (video/RECORDING/Movies). Is this even possible? Can I only mount a share and not a folder within it?
i used to have TVHeadend running on the NAS but im just testing out TVHeadend 4.2 on the Wetek as 4.2 has not been compiled for the Synology. I, unfortunately, have no idea how to do that myself. Is TVHeadend 4.2 even worth this effort over TVHeadend 4.1?

The mounting script is:

# This is a mount script to mount the Synology TV Movies folder.


[Unit]
# The description should be used to explain what this servicefile is for
Description=mount Synology TV Movies folder


# if we do network mounts like here we *require* 'network-online.service' which checks if the network is online
Requires=network-online.service


# our scripts must start *after* 'network-online.service', on timeout and if 'network-online.service' fails we can not mount and this scripts fails too
After=network-online.service


# usually we mount networks shares because we want they avaible *before* XBMC starts. so XBMC has access to this mounts from beginning. Note: this slows down the boot!
Before=kodi.service


[Mount]
# The share we want mount
What=192.168.1.16:/video/RECORDED/Movies


# Where we want mount this share
Where=/storage/nas_tv_movies


# Any options you usually use with the "-o" parameter in the mount command
Options=


# filesystem type
Type=nfs


[Install]
# The target is used by 'systemctl enable <name_of_this_file.mount>' to link this service to a runlevel for starting on boot. usually 'multi-user.target' is ok here.
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Thank you for any advice.

Please make sure you have enough space on ./ storage.
I had similar problem and after deleting some old backups, upgrade went OK.

Thanks Yurek99, that worked!

Hi,

I am trying to upgrade my Wetek Play OpenELEC from 6.0.3 to 7.0 by adding the .tar file into /storage/.update folder but when I reboot the upgrade fails and all that is left in the .update folder is an MD5 file and a SYSTEM file.

I tried also using the Leopold add on 'OpenELEC Dev Update' to update to 6.95.1, 6.95.2, 6.95.3 and 7.0. All fail. when I enable 'verify update settings' it states that the MD5 hash doesnt match.

Ive never upgraded my Wetek Play, can anyone give me some advice as to what to do next?
