Android Shield TV and SMB on Windows 7
#1
I have a strange problem: I run a mysql database on my Server for Kodi. All my files are on the server and shared via samba. If I restart the server, Kodi runs fine and every file is playable without a problem on Kodi 17.6 on my nvidia shield tv. After some time, sometimes a couple of hours, sometimes the next day, no file is playable with Kodi. Even if I want to add the network location manually with user and password, I can't. Do have anyone an idea for a solution?

If I access the share via x-plore from my shield, it works fine.

To receive meaningful assistance you will need to provide a full debug log.

The instructions are here... debug log (wiki)

If you are using the Basic Method, then ensure the following is applied...
1.Enable debugging in Settings>System Settings>Logging,
2.Restart Kodi
3.Replicate the problem.

If you are using the Advanced Method ensure you have correctly created and applied the advancedsettings.xml file.

In both instances, you should see the word DEBUG throughout the log.

Note: Full logs only. No partial or redacted logs
Do NOT post your logs directly into the forum. Always use a paste site like pastebin.com. Post the link to your pasted log in the forum

First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.

Did you disable IPv6?

Now I restarted the server and everything works. Log:

Edit:

After a few trys I think I found the reason: If I access my smb-share with x-plore from my Shield TV the problem occures. But I don't know why this happens.
