Hi,


ok to mount the smb share manually is one solution but i was thinking of somekind of automated search. As it is possible with the "network neighbourhood " feauture in wind***
You just select whole network or current workgroup and freevo will search for all computers /workgroups which are available on the net and will display their names. Then you can browse the whole thing like a directory structure.


This should be very useful if you have limit space on your freevo machine. You just plug in a computer somewhere in you network and then search for it on your tv..... no config hacking and no trouble....

is there a plugin for browesing smb-shares within freevo?
I think of somekind like the windows network neighbourhood. This would be
quite helpfull if you have several computers in your network and want to
play some media over the net.


if you know the computers and shares you want to use, you can just use smbfs with or without automount (but be careful, there is a problem with the ogminfo module of mmpython, dischi: did you read my short analysis i posted here some time ago? i think it would be good if this will be fixed for the next release). otherwise there is the LD_PRELOAD thing called smbwrapper in the samba distribution which supposedly maps the samba network to the filesystem. i haven't tested it though...
