8	+	.
9	+	For Synology versions of DSM 7 and higher you need to assign read or read/write permissions to the system internal emby user for any directories used by Emby such as your media folders. We recommend setting read/write permissions to take full advantage of Emby's features.
10	+
11	+
12	+	To set permission open the Control Panel on Synology DSM. Then open Shared Folders.
13	+	Highlight the shared folder containing the media you wish to appear in Emby.

24	+	Change the drop down user type to "System internal user" (in the red box above).
25	+	Scroll down if needed until you see the emby user.
26	+	Check the column to give emby at least Read Only access but we suggest granting Read/Write access like this:

30	+	Click the Save button.
31	+	Repeat this process for any other shares containing media for Emby.
32	+	Emby Server should now be able to access the folders.
