XBMC SMB Sharing with Apple TV 2
#1
I have been trying to figure this out for days.

I set up XBMC on my ATV2. I was able to share a folder from my laptop (win7) using SMB no problem. Then I tried sharing a folder on my computer (win7) doing the same thing (add source, browse, workgroup...).

When I try it on my laptop I have no problem entering the username and password then choosing the file. When I try it for my computer, it does not let me past the username/password login to the computer. When I enter the info it just brings me back to the same screen as if I entered it incorrectly.

I tried 10 times. I know I am entering everything correctly (case sensitive). I even made a new user for my computer and tried logging in that way but it didn't work either.

It doesn't seem like anything is wrong with the ATV2 because it worked fine with my laptop....but it also doesn't seem like it is an issue with my computer because I downloaded XMBC on my laptop and was able to add the shared folder from my computer to that and stream movies fine that way.

I am very confused. Please help!
