"Thanks for the answer. I'll dig around into mounting SMB shares in OpenELEC for RPi. I'm sure it's not too difficult."
=================================================================================
Did you ever find a nice step by step procedure to mount SMB shares prior to OpenElec starting?
I had tried on a RPi3 using LibreElec to run both the KODI client and TVHeadend/backend but never got a picture which could be viewed.
I eventually erased the SD card, reloaded LibreElec, and used ServerWMC running on my laptop as my backend. It works perfectly but I don't want the laptop on 24/7 so I'd be perfectly willing to buy another RPi3 and install LibreElec and just use the TVHeadend/backend for my live/PVR server. I would not need the client running.
I'd like to use my 2TB NAS for storage of recorded TV.
Being a Linux ignoramus I do need a good step by step as so many things on linux are given missing a critical step. It is like a bomb disposal instruction which says, cut the red wire................ but not after cutting the blue wire.
