no freedom of opinion on this forum at all..so quick to ban when people call out the over priced boxes sold here..I'd bet every mod here got a free box thats why they are like this..like watching fox news around here so one way

then why did i pay for avov 2 box and i tell true been happy with them for a long time and yes they had problem like all new boxes have but for most part i'm very happy i dont have any boxes that are perfect what is that some want this others want that

I can find my other devices on my network but I can't see my network shares like on the mag stb. But thru kodi you can access anything you have on your network. it can even be set up to scan for new content from your pc.

go to video, files, add videos, use the SMB to find your network. then you can set it up to scan as a movie, tv show etc.

i tried that but it didnt see my network i'll keep trying tough.......i'm not too proficient with the kodi

Glad you got it worked out. I shut my password protection off in Windows to skip that step. I'm not running NAS either, just a 3T ext hhd.

This is not hard to do. Just setup network shares to your Movies and TV folders. Then in Kodi setup your Movie and TV folders pointing to the shares you created. Kodi will do the rest and load the movies and TV shows.
