Hello guys.
I've got my new htpc with xbmc (frodo), running on win7 ultimate, that plays movies and music from a Synology nas (ds413).
In the \cinema directory of the nas, I've put both mkv (or avi) movies and dvd video movies; but, while mkv files are directly in the \cinema directory, for each dvd video movie I created (inside \cinema) a new directory (named with the movie title) where I put all the .vob files of that movie.
I set xbmc and the nas to use nfs protocol because I red it is more performing than smb and, overall, because it doesn't need credentials.
Sorry for the large introduction; now the problem.
When I try to play a movie, if the movie is mkv format it always starts immediately.
Otherwise, if it is a dvd video format movie, it doesn't starts; I don't receive any error messages; it simply doesn't starts.
But, if I play a mkv movie (just for one second) and then stop it and try to start the dvd movie, then it plays regularely.
I don't have any ideas how to deal with this problem.
Can someone help me to solve it?
Thanks in advance.
