Time Delay setting to allow for NAS to become ready.
#1
Situation: I have a NAS box which sleeps the drives to reduce power consumption and to increase their life. So if the NAS box is asleep I get two errors from XBMC when selecting it as the source -
Error
Operation not permitted
then clicking [OK]
Remote share
Could not connect to network server
after finishing with these errors the NAS box has had time to become ready and it can then be selected without errors.

Request: It would be nice to have a setting in XBMC to extend the delay before 'time out' errors appear for NAS sources. Maybe as a "Wait for NAS" radio button and then "Wait for - xx seconds" in each 'Source' just in case you have multiple NAS boxes.

Thanks for allowing suggestions to be made. Love your work!

PS, I did a search and couldn't find a solution or similar request :-)

have you tried the <clienttimeout> setting in advancedsettings.xml?
