Can not read the video files on the XBMC through my Toshiba Blue Ray
#1
Hi Guys, I don't know if I should post this here but I really need your help.

I have a Toshiba blu ray player BDK21, I connected it with an RJ45 to a TP-LINK router which I have in WDS bridge with another TP-LINK router.

So the blue ray player gets internet, and it has some applications, they are running fine through the internet, then I installed XBMC on my laptop which is connected to the same network via RJ45 to the main router, so the Blu Ray recognizes the media server but then when I go to the video folders it says 0 files just like if it can not see the movies I have on the XBMC server.

I configured XBMC to use uPnP , then I added some movie files from a folder, and I can play these movies and watch them on my laptop.

Then I tried to add as an exception all the XBMC and uPNP services to the windows firewall, also installed IPX protocol for file sharing.

I don't really know what is going on, do you know anything about this ? Its like the blu ray can see the server but can not read the content.

Please please help me.

did scan the videos into the xbmc library?

xbmc only serves library content, not the files you browsed to and played
