Presently, I have three HD TVs, two Samsung and one Sony. On these
TVs
there is a menu where I can access remote devices to access music or
videos. By marking the folders "shared" in Windows, these folders are
available on these TVs. I have found no way to accomplish the same
thing with my FreeBSD-8.2 PC. Simply using Samba and creating a
shared
music or video directory does not work. I contacted Samsung and they
told me that they do not support architecture other than Microsoft &
MAC
and that I should contact whoever wrote the OS I am working with for
assistance. I didn't bother with Sony since I assume I would have
only
gotten the same response.
If anyone understands what I am talking about and has a feasible
solution I would love to hear. I had considered either mapping a
drive
in Windows that pointed to the FreeBSD share or creating a link to
it.
I would prefer not to have to go that route however, even if it did
work.
I probably should add that this entire system is wireless with the
exception of the FreeBSD machine that is hard wired to the wireless
router.
My guess would still be Samba, as this is an implementation of the
shared
folders of Windows. Maybe your configuration was not perfect?
