Hi everyone,
unfortunately I recently had to move from Linux to Windows 8.1. After installing Kodi 14.2 I wanted to add my mapped network drive as a video source. Unfortunately not all subfolders within the share show up. The shared folder is a share on a Synology NAS and has been working without problems for a long time. I'm using it on other machines via NFS and samba on a daily basis.
This is how my folder structure looks like
When I browse the M:\ drive from Windows explorer everything is fine and I can easily open and play the content underneath e.g. M:\videos\movies. However within kodi only the subdirectory "someDirectory" is shown underneath movies, the other two directories (movies, tv shows) do not show up. I also tried to manually add the whole path but then no content is shown in the folder.
The problem also exists when I browse the network drive directly using the samba feature in kodi. After giving my credentials for accessing the share I only see the "someDirectory" subfolder, but not the others.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot !
