Adam Vande More articulated:
Are you sure these devices aren't trying to connect to a DLNA
server? Such need can be met by net/mediatomb or other port.
A couple of people have replied to this thread. The Samba shares are
configured correctly and are visible on my Windows based PCs. I have no
idea if the TVs are using DLNA. I never had to configure anything,
other than sharing the folders, on my Microsoft PCs, so am I to assume
that DLNA is always available on that OS? Anyway, I will try your
suggestion.
I have a Sony networked TV, and it definitely needs a DLNA server and is
very picky about what formats are served. I'm not a Windows user but I
have the impression Home or Home Premium versions of Vista/Win7 have
DLNA support built in.
Alexander Leidinger has written a couple of blog posts on getting Sony
TVs working with FBSD. Take a look at this and the related posts:
