I've never had a major issue with xbmc before but this is driving me nuts.
I just built a new htpc, i have 3 htpcs and 2 old xbox based machines, i was replacing one of the older boxes with a new box...I have a standalone setup, minimal ubuntu jaunty 32 bit.
My media sources are samba shares.
I originally setup the xbmc from the ppa's When i try to add my Highres TV folder, it just says:
Downloading Tv show Information
Scanning for new content
But it never moves..it never gets any further.
THINGS I'VE TRIED:
i've tried upgrading to SVN (which is what i have installed now) Still no go, i've tried adding the samba details to both the Settings/network/smb AND to the share itself, i've tried to save the share directly with this format:
smb://user:password@server/share
nothing works....i thought that perhaps the scaper site was down but that is not the case..does anyone have any idea what is going on here?
