I'm running a Raspberry Pi on my tv and want to stream movies from my iMac's hard drive. I have tried searching and found plenty of how-to's but all are dealing with windows it seems. I've ran into a road block here, please correct me if I'm wrong.
I first went to my Sharing settings on my Mac and added the folder I want to share. I went into options turned file sharing on and enabled AFP and Windows (SMB). Now in XBMC I went to Video > Files > Add Video > and then went into Windows Network SMB. I managed to find JAY'S-IMAC-3 but when I go and select it it tells me Error: Operation not permitted? Anybody know what's going on here?
Here is what it looks like in my settings. I went ahead and set Everyone to Read Only but am not sure if I was supposed to do this or not?
