A question: Do I need to use the IP address of the WHS as opposed to just browsing for the server on my network via the "Browse for new share" window and Windows network (SMB) option?
It seems to have found the media ok and is adding it back, but I'm not sure if I am bypassing the entire Sql database by browsing for the server path rather than typing out the IP address.
The share name is fine. I didn't realize until after the fact that the thumbnails are not shared in the database. They are currently independent on each machine. You can copy them if need be for now. There is a way you can share the thumbnails but I think most people end up shying away from it because the delay in the load time of the art can take longer. I haven't tried it myself yet to be honest.
