I don't recall seeing the <back...> on the firestick but I may have just missed it.. I'll check that tonight after work. I know it isn't a problem with SMB because I can access it outside of the plugin via the Kodi "Files" section. I already had to enable CIFS in Windows 10 to get the SMB to work in VNC.(2019-04-10, 17:20)lagman Wrote: Yeah, VLC can see the ts files and play them easily enough, but I want be able to read the description of each episode before I open the file so I know what I'm about to watch. Right now all I see are the files and the file names are not descriptive enough.
I'm fine with using the IPTV Recorder plugin as my player so I can see the descriptions. I installed the plugin on one of my firesticks but I can't figure out how to make it look at my smb:// for the recordings. In the options I only see 3 folders and no way to manually type in the path (ex. smb://myPC/recordings). I think if I can figure that out I'll have what I need and can just use the IPTV Recorder plugin on each firestick as a viewer.
So you're saying that you can't see myPC in
Firestick \ Kodi \ IPTV Recorder \ Settings \ Jobs and Rules \ Kodi Recording Folder \ <back...> \ Windows network (SMB) \ WORKGROUP \ myPC
?
If that is the case then either you haven't allowed file sharing from myPC
or added a rule to the firewall on myPC
or enabled an older version or compatible version of SMB in Kodi and myPC.

There is an SMB minimum version somewhere in Kodi but I can't find it right now.
I've been having problems accessing SMB shares on Windows recently from various Kodi addon Settings.
I had to add the server in the Kodi File Manager first by directly entering its name in the "Add network location..." dialog.
