Hi.

When I disconnect the network from and then try to access previously added network location (that is not accessible at this point), the screen freezes for a minute or so.

It would be much better to do that more async and have the "waiting" symbol showing that it is still alive and doing something, rather than freezing.

At the same time, I would not mind lowering the timeout to 10 seconds or so if the directory cannot be found. Is it possible to do at this point?

Thanks.

Hi,

I have the same problem. I have two computers in my network and a raspberry pi with kodi 17.
When the servers are sleeping and i press info or press play, on one computer i get after few seconds the message file not found. But on the other computer it takes almost two minutes and freezes the usr interface completely. Even the log info on the screen with cpu info freezes.
The files are all referenced over the network with samba of the pi over smb. It is really annoying when you have to wait two minutes before you can do anything. On windows with kodi i don’t have this problem.
