Hello, i can´t add any network folder. I tried to add IP adress \192.168.100.99\G\MP3 or mount drive as "X" and type X:\MP3 .
But Subsonic still say : No music folders found.Please change the settings.
I have Win XP.
Can i add network folders?

Yes. Try \\server_or_ip_address\drive\folder. Note the double backslash

hmm. Doesn´t work for me.
I tried \\192.168.100.111\g\Mp3 - that adress is right and mounted like X network drive too.
Still " No music folders found "

I tried other network folders too , but can´t add it.

Can you use that same address in windows explorer to see it? Make sure it's exposed to your PC first.

The Subsonic service needs to be given logon permission to the share. Follow the instructions in the document:

Use a simple UNC e.g. \\SERVERNAME\Music
