Trouble understanding part of SLM set-up

[golphur]

I have Channels DVR running on a Linux machine and SLM running on Windows. SLM has generated a few streamlinks for me but I never see them in the channels app after doing the end-to-end process. The streamlinks I have generated actually work. I manually moved them over to Channels using a thumb drive and whoala, new movies appear in the app "movies" section and run properly (this case, Apple TV). I believe my problem lies in SLM setup, when filling in, "Channels URL" and "Channels Directory". The Url box was initially filled for me and a ran the "test" button and got a positive response. The URL shows at 192.168.1.219:8089 which is correct for my Channels DVR. Now, "Channels Directory" is filled with "C:\Program Files\StreamLink Manager_internal" which is a directory structure on my SLM Windows machine?? I'm new to Linux but I believe the directory should be filled with something like \media{user}\dvr?? Confusion abounds. Would love some help.

Please be sure to read the Wiki first as many of your questions and understanding of how things were done are answered there. For instance:

If you insist on your particular setup, you'll need to map a network drive in Windows to your Linux machine, at the very least to the Channels directory there. You'll also have to make sure permissions are set correctly on the Linux side so that it has Read/Write/Remove access. SLM can only "see" what is on the machine/instance in front of it, so unless you make your Linux directories available on your Windows machine, there's nothing it can do.
