I have XBMC running on my new MacBook Pro. I want to add my iMac as a source. I have a few folders that I'm sharing via SMB on the iMac. However, I cannot see them in XBMC. This used to work when I had XBMC running on an old first generation Xbox. Any ideas? Thanks!

If you haven't done this already, you will have to first "add source"-->Browse-->"add network location..". This will show all the Mac SMB locations that are available. Add the iMac SMB location and then go back to "add source" and the iMac will show up in the selectable list. Hope this helps.

When adding the sourse I always add it as a winows share towards the bottom of the list.

Has to be something with my network. I tried XBMC at work and it worked perfectly. I have a very common wireless router. I just don't get it. Hopefully someone else can help out. Thanks!
