crap. i though i'd finally be done with these god damn smb issues. but without debug logs and/or ethereal (tcpdump) traces it'd be hard to track them down.
elupus,
As requested, I'm supplying a debug log illustrating the issue. You'll find the full log here:
Debug LogI'm using the latest T3CH build from 1/1/07. Streaming from my XP machine worked perfectly fine in the 2.01 XBMC build, and first broke with the Christmas T3CH build. I'm using a softmodded 1.6 XBOX.
On my Windows XP machine (192.168.11.2), I can sucessfully get the list of shared folders. When I try to view the contents of one of them (fansub3) the call fails, saying xbmc is unable to open the directory. My XP machine's IP is static, and just for sanity's sake I confirmed the IP is correct. Stopping the firewall makes no difference, and using my PC's name rather than the IP makes no difference.
I then connect to a networked drive connected to a Linksys NSLU (smb://LKGD8FCEE/Hdd_1_1_1). There, you'll see that I can successfully navigate folders and I was able to stream a file with no problems.
I've used Ethereal once or twice at work, so I'm only a little familiar with it but if it will help resolve the issue I would be happy to install and run it on my home machine while trying to stream from XP. Though you may need to give me some hints for setup/filtering of the logs so I can give you what you need to solve the problem.
I appreciate all your help, and thanks to all the developers for making XBMC the awesome app that it is.
Let me know if you need anything else.
