Title
This bug is still in Ubuntu 20.04, and it is a VLC design issue.
VLC does not use existing SMB mount information (like GVFS, or KIO plugins) to
access remote files.
Instead, it uses an internal SMB implementation to be able to stream files.
The end result is that even if users have mounted SMB sh
Thank you for reporting this bug to Ubuntu.

We appreciate that this bug may be old and you might not be interested
in discussing it any more. B
Actually adding authentication information in VLC helps in my case - but
only for one SMB server (if the information differs per server).
AFAIconcerned, the problem is here that VLC tries to reinvent the wheel
(samba module) while there already is a GVFS mount point that is ready
for use by any ap
Testing with nautilus shows the shares are available. Testing with

It is a VLC issue since the same thing also happens when using VLC's
"file open" dialog - completely without a file manager. At least in

This bug is not "invalid". The comment #4 is not a solution, since "your
SMB credentials" vary depending on the server that one wants to connect

I had this problem after I upgraded from Ubuntu 13.10 to 14.04. After
messing around with the settings, I got it to work again. What I did was
to go to Tools -> Preferences -> Show all settings (at the bottom left)

This bug is present on other distros as well so it seems to be a PCManFM
bug. Maybe it needs to be pushed upstream? Seems like PCManFM messes up
the path so that most players, not only VLC, can't play the content. The
only two players I have found that is usable is GNOME-Mplayer and
