I think some things work easier than everything "clickity-click" in Windows.Īlso the fact that Windows in the last year(s) has changed its ways on how to set up a SMB server on Windows 10 is not encouraging to me. I'm kind of glad I abandoned ship on Windows and switched to Ubuntu Linux years ago. So I changed it to be the same as drive letter and. And mine was totally different from drive letter and drive name. You need to use SHARE NAME! Not the drive letter, not the drive name, I repeat - SHARE NAME. Yeah - for smart guys it's obvious which one to use but not for dummy There are three names: drive letter, drive name and SHARE NAME. In case someone stumbles on the same pothole: From reading this forum I realize you all guys are pros and use this system for a long time.ĮDIT: Problem SOLVED! Thanks everyone for the help and support! Got message ERROR 2: SHARE NOT AVAILABLE. When I followed that guide and rebooted the Pi, I tried to add SMB share in Kodi.
With LibreELEC it's different I need to create/edit some config files in the system, right? Where can I find latest and newbie friendly guide? I read one but it's hard to follow ( Mounting network shares ) in terms of the path name - what if the folder's name is "\\SERVER\F - Movies Hitachi"? As I understand, I need to change SERVER with IP address, right? But what about the folder name - is it ok to have spaces in the name or I need to rename it? With Windows based HTPC I used SMB and it was easy to setup. Question: what is the best way in terms of speed? NFS - UPnP - SMB - Network location (direct).Īnd how to connect? I tried each way in Kodi - only UPnP can see the server but can't see the folders and files. Now I need to add folders with movies from my server. Put latest system on microSD card, booted. I run Kodi on Windows HTPC for years but finally decided to dive into LibreELEC on Raspberry Pi 3.
