Hi There

im using neutos and the latest tinfoil with an original sx os license files putted on the root of my SD
I can confirm that the license is working because i see game icons now in tinfoil, plus several new options

i bought the license to have access to my SMB share where several NSPs and XCIs are placed at

I connected the share without any troubles. But as im trying to install one of those files, i either get

"FAILED TO READ NSP METADATA" or "FAILED TO READ NSP, ...NCA magic ..."

I activated the konami code, But that wont help.

Do you have an idea or tipp for me on how to avoid this? I cant install anything through the network. USB or NUT Server is working fine (with the same files)

Regards, and stay healthy

I understand sorry if maybe it is the firmware.... you should be using Offical SXOS firmware with the latest tinfoil idk if I can link SXOS website on here for the firmware but you can probally find it on your own

USB you play the games from your external HD / SMB is where you can play the games from your computer. Mabye you need the SX Server also

no, sorry
with USB i mean a PC connected by USB with NUTServer running on it. That works fine
Even the network NUT is working fine with all files
But SMB installations through tinfoil are failing with NCA blahblah

I understand hopefully someone with more experience can guide you in the right direction I never used SMB personally

Hello. Also ran into this problem. The konami code doesn't help. File placement is also at the root. Short names don't help. Can anyone have managed to run the installation from a personal SMB server? No Internet search results found
