Hey all,
I hope someone can help me with this.
I have the following setup:
1. HTPC with xbmc live running Pre-EDEN from Dec 11th
2. ipad 2 with Pre-EDEN from Dec 10th
3. mysql server on HTPC with XBMC library
Both machines can connect to the library without any problems.
The HTPC can play/resume items, the ipad, however cannot.
The HTPC is the Library server. I don't have a NAS or anything.
All files are on a local hard drive on the htpc.
To make sure the ipad can access those files via NFS I added some path substitutions to the advancedsettings.xml.
So here's the setup:
Mount on HTPC:
/var/mobile/Media/mediaA
Path:
/var/mobile/Media/mediaA/Media/Movies/"Some Movie Part 1" (there are blanks in the names, which doesn't bother the HTPC)
Everything plays fine on the htpc
I share this path via NFS to the ipad.
On the ipad I created the same folder structure
/var/mobile/Media/mediaA
however I cannot mount nfs shares on the ipad on ios level. That I did with xbmc-ios
I added the following lines to the advancedsettings.xml
When I add a source to XBMC/ipad I DON'T use "NFS://path/to/media", BUT:
Add Videos => Browse => Home Folder (/var/mobile) => Media = >MediaA (up to here all folders reside on the ipad) => Media (now we are on the htpc) => Movies.
On my iPad in VIDEO=>FILES I can now see the files that are on the remote server. I can watch them, too.
However, when I try to access the files via the library I get a message "This file is no longer available".
The path on the ipad is the same as on the htpc.
I also get the following entries in xbmc.log:
Can anyone help me out here? :confused2:
Thanks
