My System: Dream box laptop and pc

thanks for your reply. I still can't get it going. When I run the vlcf front end on the dream box it says server not availible. I know its running the xml becase it tells me to check my settings and file path and it puts the file path from the xml file on the tv screen.

I do have my pc drive succesfully mounted under C:\movies and thats the path I put in the xml.

Do you have to open up ports on your router? I opened 8080 9090 and put in my dream box IP. should I put my Pc IP?

Do I have to change any of the vlcf player preferences? I changed input server port to 8080.

Do I use the same user and password as i do in my cifs mount setup? I did.

The vlcf front end just can't see my pc or can't log on for some reason

I really need to get this working. I have hundreds of channels but still just watch TVU player all day.

Thx
