Hi, i have mysql including shared thumbnails running on 3 Win7 clients, server (sharing videos, music, thumbnails is ubuntu lucidlynx). Everything is working fine, except one thing:
when i try to play a movie via database mode it does not find the movie and xbmc suggests to delete it from database. what i figured out is, that this happens because xbmc is not able to pass user/password to the share via database mode. (may be my configuration, i do not know)...
when i start the (same) movie via file mode, the movie plays fine, and then afterwards i am able to start (all) movies via database mode, so this is definitely an authentication problem. database initially also works if i connected to network share in windows prior to starting xbmc.
configurationis as follows
passwords.xml
<passwords>
<path>
<from pathversion="1">smb://LUCIDLYNX/</from>
<to pathversion="1">smb://user:pass@LUCIDLYNX/</to>
</path>
</passwords>
sources.xml
<video>
<default pathversion="1"/>
<source>
<name>hd.filme</name>
<path pathversion="1">smb://LUCIDLYNX/video_hd/hd.filme/</path>
</source>
</video>
strPath in xbmc_video database table is set to
smb://LUCIDLYNX/video_hd/hd.filme/
when i add the user:pass@ here, i am not able to play a file via database mode.
any suggestions, ideas are highly appreciated.
thanks in advance.
