Hello,

Firstly I am running Kodi 15.2 on RPi 1B

The problem:

I am unable to access my win7 (Ultimate, 64-bit) file folders from Kodi. When I try to add a video source from Windows network (smb) I get an error message saying: Error2: share not available. When I add the network location manually I get an error message saying: connection refused. I managed to make a connection once but lost it again after I rebooted RPi and I am unable to do that again.

Kodi has internet access and I have assigned static IP adress to it ( I have tried different ones).

I have tried:

Disableing firewall/antivirus on the PC

I have also tried to edit registry like here:

I changed the Minimum Session Security as explained in the bottom of this thread:

I also made sure that I don't have any Windows live programs installed.


Any suggestions or help would be nice. Thanks in advance!

you could provide us with a full debug log (wiki)
i had a few issues before with SMB i got it working a dirty way.
if you look at step 4.2 of the kodi SMB wiki
add the user everyone,
also i made sure that i turned off any VirisScanner/firewall to make sure it doesn't mess up stuff

So i got it working(ish). I made the connection manually to my PC's IP adress, assigned a static IP to PC aswell. Tried rebooting both systems and it workd if I give it time ( like 5 minutes).
