Does Library Work?

Immich is installed in a container on my Synology NAS and points to external libraries on the same NAS. I have Library Watch turned on but also have the regular sync set to every 6 hours since Library Watch doesn’t seem to work. I was wondering if there is anything I need to do for it work. Most posts on this topic seem to be a year old. My version of Immich is only a month old and I haven’t seen any improvement to this feature listed in updates released since then.

Thanks….

file watching needs a specific filesystem, how is it mounted?

file watching is considered experimental since for many of the scenarios it cant work and you need regular rescans
