I'm having problems with XBMC seeing all of my shared folders.
I'm using ATV2, my media is stored on a USB drive connected to my iMac running Snow Leopard. I have set up my shared folders on my Mac, and when i check my FILES on XBMC i can see the missing folders (i have 11 folders shared, all from the USB Drive & 6 of them have loaded fine) but when i click on them it says ERROR TIMED OUT.
When i first set the system up a friend told me that XBMC didn't like folders with too many files in it (not sure if that's true or not) So of my 620 Movie Files I could only access 420. He recommended splitting the files down, which is why i have 11 folders on my drive, now i can only see 400.
I have tried taking everything off & starting again, & it does the same thing. I've tried scanning for new content over & over & it just doesnt pick them up.
There's nothing obscure about the files in these folders, mixture of AVI, MKV, MP4 & M4V, from other folders i can see these file types & play them no problem.
Can anybody help?
