Oleg Iarygin <[email protected]> added the comment:
As I found out, any path starting with two double slashes is treated as an UNC
(network) path:
vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv root
\\machine\mountpoint\directory\etc\...
directory ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
So "/Library/Video" and "/" are directories mounted on your machine while
"//Library/Video" is a computer named "Library" with a share named "Video".
However, an error message in Python 3.8 (as a file path suggests) is
misleading. In 3.11 it was changed to "'\\Library\Video\' is not in the subpath
of '\' OR one path is relative and the other is absolute."
