| I have my Samsung BD-P3600 Blu-Ray player connected to my FIOS router directly. There is also a WAP in client mode connected to the wireless, and my PC is attached to it. PC can get on the Internet no problem. Blu-Ray can find the PC, but rejects any username / password I give it to access my movie share. I created a user "bluray" password "bluray" and gave it read access to the share but it won't fly. Windows Firewall is off. My laptop, unfortunately, is from work and on a domain, and so won't connect to the home workgroup for me to test. What else could I be missing? |

You can test the share with your domain computer by using .\%username%. Are you sure the samsung doesn't require DNLA to be setup on the "server"? This. I'd be surprised if it used straight up SMB file shares - it's probably DLNA - which means you need to setup WMP11+. |

Make sure you come back and tell us how you like it. |

Make sure you come back and tell us how you like it. It was awesome when it worked! At my last place I had my PC next to my TV, so I just connected the second video to the TV and used VLC to display shows directly. But I can't do that where I am now. I was Googling around, and found a couple of references to people having to set up the info for the share manually instead of automatically. I'll try that. |
