is there a way to do that?

You mean run it from a different location?

Sorry, I was not very clear.

I'm talking about the default location where others can upload to my server.

I can click MORE and is currently set to Z:\Incoming.
I have no recollection on how I initially set that but would now like to change it to a new folder.
I see no way to do that.

Thank you.

Hi, That location is defined by Subsonic based on the location of your mediafolders.
It just uses the first folder you have defined under settings >> Mediafolder and adds an "Incoming" folder to that folder.
You can't change it without delving deep into the code. You can change it every time you upload a file.
But that means that you have to point to the file to be uploaded, change the destination folder, upload the file, get the "Succes"-message, return to the previous page, just to see that the folder has been changed to what Subsonic wants it to be.
So, this might be a feature request if you use this option a lot.

Keep in mind that path is what your server setup has access to.
If you're using remote UNC paths to a nas etc...you are better off using the UNC path to avoid having issues with drives that are not mapped or setup on the Subsonic server.
