Problems Accessing Media Files
« on: June 03, 2004, 04:53:00 AM »

Greetings,

I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out why XBMC will not recognize my shared media folder on my computer.  

Here is some background information:

What works:
XBMC will access the Internet to get updates from Xbox Scene and will update the weather.  
I can access my Xbox via an FTP program.

What does not work:
When I try to access my music files on my computer using the SMB connection, I get the following error: nt_status_object_name_not_found.
If I try to access my computer with XMS or XBMS, the Xbox thinks for a few seconds then does not show any shared files.

What I've done:
I have created a user (XBOX) on my computer and have permitted the user to access the shared folder as stated by other tutorials.  I have even given them full access to the folder.

I have shut down my firewall when I try to connect from the Xbox just in case my problem was the firewall.

These solutions did not work, unfortunately.

Here is the code from the Xboxmedialcenter.xml:

<bookmark>
     <name>SMB</name>
      <path>smb://12.48.221.123/Test/</path>
   </bookmark>
 </music>  

I would greatly appreciate any suggestions on how I can fix this error.

Thanks in advance,
