Ok so I am having a problem that I am going to try to explain the best I can. I truly hope im posting this in the right spot if not I do apologize. First I will explain my setup and then I will explain my problem.
I have an Ubuntu server running XBMC, MySQL Database Server, and sharing my media on two samba shares. This machine is directly connected to my router via Ethernet cable. I have set up my Ubuntu server to use MySQL data base by putting advancedsettings.xml in the users directory and it reads to media from the samba shares. Now, I went to my windows workstation that is also connected directly to my router via Ethernet cable (I know this probably doesn't mean much to you but im telling you because its leading up to my problem please bear with me.). I installed XBMC on the work station and put the advancedsettings.xml in the users directory and it worked perfectly. I also purchased an Matricom G-Box Midnight 2 MX2 Box and again I directly connected it and loaded XBMC and put the advancedsettings.xml in the users directory and worked perfectly.
Now for my problem that you know my setup. I loaded XBMC on my sons Windows workstation that is wireless-N and added the advancedsettings.xml to the users directory. I started XBMC and It connected to the database and lists all of the media and information about the media properly but when I go to play the media I get a "Media not found do you want to remove this from you library screen". So I went back to my Matricom box and unplugged the Ethernet cable and started the WiFI and same thing I got my sons machine. I plugged the Ethernet cable back into the Matricom box and again it worked perfectly. I have shut down all firewalls, IPS, and IDS and still not working.
For some reason when I'm on WiFi with a device it will read the Database but cant find the media. If I go to the network directly on the wifi device and browse for the samba share I can see it and access it just fine with no issues. I can also directly click on the file and play it through VLC.
Please Help Me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If there is anymore info you need please let me know and I will provide it!!!
