Serviio

I have a lowly Buffalo LS-V3.OTL NAS connected to a DLINK DIR-825. I cannot get Serviio to recognize the external internet path to my NAS share which is just MP3 and FLAC audio files.

I have configured port forwarding on the DLINK router to unblock port 47601 (NAS incoming port), and incoming/outgoing NAS ports 9000. I have configured my NAS external settings and can access my NAS either via the browser or using Webaccess client from my iPhone so I know the NAS is configured properly.

When I attempt to put in the path into Serviio (remote tab) as: http://buffalonas.com/my_share and set it to automatically update my router settings (which I'm not sure it's doing anything), it returns a red 'X'. If I check the status in the Serviio Library tab, I only see red dots.

I've tried setting the Buffalo as a DLNA server as well, but although Serviio sees it, it is amber in color (not sure what I'm doing here..)

Thanks!

You need to add the location of your media libraries on the Libraries tab (Shared Folders) using the Add Path button, not on the Remote tab. See http://www.serviio.org/component/conten ... ng-started.

Ensure that the user that the Serviio service logs in as has access to the NAS folders.

Yes, thanks for that. Initially when I submitted my post, if I pointed to my Buffalo NAS share, or '\\NASDISK\MUSIC SHARE', the Serviio library wouldn't retrieve any info. So I changed the Serviio service log on properties so as to duplicate what I have on the NAS (ID/pwd) -- and it worked. But since then, it hasn't... I've tried stopping/starting/reinstalling etc.

I also since changed the remote setup to a Dynamic DNS acct. instead of pointing at the BuffaloNAS link (doh). Serviio now says it is all good or green, and I can access the NAS share through Serviio using "Open MediaBrowser" -- but since Serviio library isn't updating the files from the NAS, nothing is showing up

Hope that makes sense
