SMB Difficulties - ATV4K + High Sierra and/or Mojave
Posted: 25 Aug 2021, 14:43
Hi,
I've recently switched to using MRMC on AppleTV. Previously I ran Kodi on a Mac.
It feels like I've tried every possible combination of SMB settings, but I cannot get MRMC to connect to my SMB Shares. These work from other Macs in the house, as well as from the AppleTV itself (using VLC/FileExplorer).
It's very likely this is a user problem, but I'm pretty stuck.
Is there a cookbook/tutorial/wiki detailing how to set this up?
Errors are either 'Share not available' or applicaiton hangs/very long timeouts, or ID/PW loops.
Connecting to Jellyfin does work pretty well, but I'm trying to set up 'direct' access to some music files.
Thanks for any pointers/suggestions.
Carlos
