Hi all, have got realies soulseek container working on Docker on my NAS but can't browse outside of the docker container to link to my downloads and music share folder?
Just wondering if anyone knows how to do this as I'm getting a bit fed up of having to leave my PC on 24/7

I don't understand why it should be so hard to get soulseek running properly on a NAS... Feel like I need a PhD to get all this stuff working :/

I tried using the container https://registry.hub.docker.com/r/realies/soulseek/ It's works fine BUT except one - it is impossible to hide @eaDir folders (and their contents) when scanning your lib and all this "garbage" is visible to everyone. In addition, this "garbage" significantly increases the scan time. I haven’t found any solution for this problem and it doesn’t allow to fully use Synology NAS for Soulseek. Nicotine+ has the same problems. Ideally it would be a good idea to add an option "hide folders with <pattern> name while scanning"  in Soulseek

And about you question - just pick your folder containing your library on the Volume tab via the Add Folder button and on the right side of the new "Mount Path" field specify the desired name inside the container, for example /Music (slash is required!). And this folder will appear inside your container when you will run it
