Serviio

Hi,

Sorry if this has been discussed already but the forum search tool seems to be not working.

I have a computer which is running Ubuntu 12.04 and I have a NAS in my network. I can mount the folders fine in Ubuntu but in Serviio trying to add the folder I can't seem to find it anywhere. I tried the adding the /home/username/.gvfs folder and smb://sharename but when trying to access them from my TV I get nothing. No folders or files so it seems Serviio can't seem to properly locate the NAS and its drives.

Any suggestions what to do?

Thank you

it's fairly easy. I think you said you manged to mapped shared drive already, if not follow this link https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently.

In my case - i mapped the network share to my nas as WDLive under /media/WDLive, then i added '/media/WDlive/Video' in serviio console.

sudo apt-get install smbfs
sudo mkdir /media/WDLive

Then edit your /etc/fstab file (with root privileges) to add this line:

//WDNas/Public /media/WDLive cifs guest,uid=1000,iocharset=utf8,codepage=unicode,unicode 0 0

sudo mount -a
