Homebrew Mplayer-CE

[Inferior_Design]

I tried it out and MPlayer gets an error when I try to read the shared folder.
I put my computer's IP address and the folder names in the SMB.conf, and the folders are shared on my network. I don't know what my problem is. I can connect my Wii and PC with ftpii flawlessly.

Suggestions?

needs to be your Router assigned IP.

 

[Inferior_Design]

Still not working. I give up.

Can't wait for the next version...you've done exactly what I needed..fix the HD-Videos

. Hope it comes out soon

!!! Maybe it will also fix the small of-sync I have with big files...let's wait and hope

Has anyone had success using this version of mplayer w/ an SDHC sd card?

I have a 4gb Kingston SDHC Class 4 SD card and the latest mplayer-ce won't even load. The screen just goes black when I try to load it through HBC.

Did you try this? Worked for me!

QUOTE(madtamski @ Feb 22 2009, 08:40 PM) For those not having much luck with the samba problem...

I couldn't get mine working either, but eventually did by setting the NT Access rights on the shared folder to allow "Everyone" read and execute access.

This worked for me both in Windows Vista and Windows 7.

Right-click folder, then pick "Security", "Advanced", "Change Permissions", "Add", "Advanced", "Find now", then pick "Everyone", then give read permissions.

It helped me, hopefully it'll help those having problems!

Samba works/worked for me no problem with MPlayerCE v0.21d and earlier versions..but with anything after the v0.21d i cant get it to connect at all...
any suggestions...i havent made any changes to my firewall or router settings...and XP is set to share just like it was with .21d and prior versions...thanks

Edit:
By the way...feel like an idiot for having to ask since it was working before...lol

Thanks for the help but its not working still. =/

Maybe I should just give you guys my info since I'm probably making the mistake here.
Win XP. No user name, no password.
My router tells me my LAN IP is 192.168.2.1
My computer tells me my IP is 192.168.2.10
Folder name "Movies"
Set to share on network. Windows Firewall allows this share
#Samba share1 (smb1:/)
ip1=192.168.2.1
share1=Movies
user1=
pass1=

Folder name "Music"
Set to share on network. Windows Firewall allows this share
#Samba share2 (smb2:/)
ip2=192.168.2.1
share2=Music
user2=
pass2=

Is that right?

 

[UranusKiller]

yeah correct, do you have a password at all?

 

[Inferior_Design]

I did. But I disabled it.
Does it matter if I have it turned off and only one user account on my comp?

--edit--

I tried using my disabled username and password. still no luck

the error message I get is

error reconnect smb...
it says the same thing for the shares with no information in them.

Was I supposed to delete all of the extra text at the top of the smb.conf? So that only the #Samba... are present? If so that's my problem.

--2nd edit--
That didn't work either.

Would having another computer on my wireless network cause a problem?

 

[UranusKiller]

Would having another computer on my wireless network cause a problem?
No, your using XP right? check if your router has firewalls etc stopping sharing.

CODE#Max 5 samba shares (review menu.conf to add more samba browsing)
#no ip or no share means samba disabled

#Samba share1ÂÂ(smb1:/)
ip1=
share1=
user1=
pass1=

#Samba share2ÂÂ(smb2:/)
ip2=
share2=
user2=
pass2=

#Samba share3ÂÂ(smb3:/)
ip3=
share3=
user3=
pass3=

#Samba share4ÂÂ(smb4:/)
ip4=
share4=
user4=
pass4=

#Samba share3ÂÂ(smb5:/)
ip5=
share5=
user5=
pass5=

The router's firewall is currently disabled.

My Wii has its own static IP set to the router. I don't think that matters.

 

[UranusKiller]

unsure about that, I doubt it, try putting your user name in the user field, and for password put =0

The only things I can see causing a issue, your folder isn't shared, maybe anti virus program causing a problem, firewall or protection on sharing on router, or the IP is incorrect.

but without a password on user account, you can leave them fields blank, just use share and IP only.

 

[UranusKiller]

wii can use dhcp

My Wii has its own static IP set to the router. I don't think that matters.

You said your router has it's own IP for the wii
then this is a possible problem
you have to know the ip number

 

[Inferior_Design]

The Wii IP is 192.168.2.3
But for the smb I'm supposed to put the PC IP right?

 

[UranusKiller]

But for the smb I'm supposed to put the PC IP right?

I just use my own router assigned IP, try each IP see what it gives you, exit before each smb config change.

 

[Inferior_Design]

Thanks for all the help Uranus.

I'll try out every possible combination and let you know how it goes when I'm done. Hopefully all goes well.

 

[AgentX]

The Wii IP is 192.168.2.3

Yes. Which if I read correctly above is 192.169.2.10 not 192.168.2.1? :S
