Hi!
i'm trying to add a mapped drive to XMBC via my NAS. When i 'browse', the drive doesnt show up and when i type in the network path, xbmc says it cant find it.

the only way i can add the directory is to 'hardline' the network (using backwards slashes).... such as //nas-xmbc-server/media

any ideas?

It's best to use the full protocol path to any network share, such as those that start with "smb://LOCAL.IP.ADDRESS.HERE/media"

ahh!! perfect, thanks!

i've never really done anything with SMB 'stuff' before, so i'm kind of getting it figured out.

thanks a ton, thumbs up
