SMB Windows share is not working - Newbie is asking
Posted: 10 Feb 2016, 18:35
Hi
first of all I would like to congratulate to the nice MrMc Player which I like so much on my new apply TV.
Other than infuse it is running totally smooth.
I have some problems with the windows shares.
After installation of MrMc on the apple TV, I can add 2 shares via menu "add videos" --> SMB.
And this happens without MrMC asking me for my username/password!
After the 2 shares - for every additional one he asked me for username and password, which he did not accept, when I type it in.
I crosschecked the user/password with infuse and VLC - here the shares with the user/password are working.
When I try to add a new share manually (even via IP adress - hopefully I took the correct one listed in the system menu). it is also not working.
A message displayed is "operation time out" ...
I can use MrMc, but this is limited to the 2 shares.
Can anyone help a total newbie.
This will be so much appreciated.!
Thanks to all!
