Hi!
It looks like you (Finchy) solved the problem I am facing.
I have a Windows Home server with all my video files on AND my MySQL library for XBMC.
Then I have the XBMC client on:
1) Windows 7 laptop
2) iMac 27 (Lion)
3) ATV2
All are showing the library correctly but the only device that can then play the movies are the Win7.
I have security on the server so I have to authenticate and here do the problem start.
HOW do I pass the credentials from OSX and ATV2?
The OSX XBMC just passes the local user account and that does not exist on the server. Same thing with the ATV.. Default user is passed as credentials.
Adding a SMB network folder works perfectly because there I can pass on the username and psw.. But when using the library I cannot.
I have been googleing this for hours and cannot find any solution..
Very happy for all help!!
