QNAP Setup Guide

Connect Pixette to your QNAP NAS in a few simple steps.

1

Enable WebDAV

Log in to your QNAP NAS admin panel. Go to Control Panel → Network & File Services → WebDAV. Enable WebDAV and set a dedicated HTTPS port.

2

Configure shared folder permissions

Navigate to Control Panel → Privilege → Shared Folders. Set 'Shared folder permission' to allow WebDAV access to your Multimedia folder.

3

Create a dedicated user

Go to Control Panel → Privilege → Users. Create a new user (e.g., 'pixette') with a simple password — avoid special characters for initial testing.

4

Set user permissions

Grant the new user read-only access to the Multimedia share (or whichever folder contains your photos).

5

Configure Pixette

Open Pixette on your device and enter your QNAP connection details: URL (https://YOUR_QNAP_IP:PORT), username, and password.

6

Index and enjoy

Browse to your photo folder, select it, then tap 'Index Now'. Once indexing completes, your slideshow is ready.

Tip

Use a simple password (letters and numbers only) for your Pixette user. Some special characters can cause connection issues with WebDAV.
