mhddfs and plex

Hello all,

I am planning on using the the mhddfs plug-in, but I have a couple of questions for any of you that are using mhddfs. First, when you set the bind share and add branches, does the file structure of the branches show up under the new bind share? For example...

Say I have the bind share /pool/ and I have the branch share /Videos/ which has sub-directories /Movies/Kids/. Will directories under the bind share be /pool/Videos/Movies/Kids/ or /pool/Movies/Kids/?

Second, when the drive gets full and starts writing to the second disk will it retain the file structure i.e. /Videos2/Movies/Kids/etc on the second branch?

Lastly, with regards to Plex. Will Plex be happy if I point it to the bind share i.e. /pool/Videos/Movies/Kids/? Or do I need to point it to the branch /Videos/Movies/Kids and if the drive gets full and spills into the next drive, do I need to add the directory from the 2nd branch to the Plex library?

I'd just like to set it up right the first time instead of renaming shares.

Thanks

Hi ryecoaaron, you're right about the VM. But just to clarify, when I setup mhddf it's going to create the file structure

/pool/
/Videos/Movies/Kids <- branch 1
/Videos2/ <-Branch 2

And if I go into the /pool/ directory I'll see the sub directories
/Videos/Movies/Kids?
/Videos2/

is this correct?

Ok. Thanks for your help ryecoaaron. And for the awesome plugin.
