I have tried setting up new user on pc and putting share file with shared access but wizard shows nothing found ?

Double check this part: -
Create a new user account on your XP pc with these details as administrator: -
User = VUDuo
Pass = VUDuo
Create a shared folder in the root of C: drive called: -
share
Right click on the folder, then click on sharing tab. Check the box that says Share this folder on the network and allow network users to change my files. Click apply and ok.
Reboot your PC and VU Duo, then start again.
If it fails again please post the exact settings that are in the Cifs mount screen.

Have you read all this thread and tested the mount as stated? http://www.vuplus-support.co.uk/showthread.php?566-Stream-movies-from-pc-to-VU-DUO&p=2724&viewfull=1#post2724
Also what format are the movies you are looking to play?
Cant view any pictures in share folder. When it trys to setup mount it gives execution failed with reason being
no route to host ?
This guide works 100% with windows xp http://www.vuplus-support.co.uk/showthread.php?566-Stream-movies-from-pc-to-VU-DUO&p=2724&viewfull=1#post2724 If its not working for you, you have a setting wrong somewhere. Have you any firewalls enabled on the XP PC apart from windows firewall?
Sorted it. Typo on my ip address. I can see pictures now. Which plugin do I need for viewing movies. Cheers for the help.

What movie format are you looking to play? The Duo will play 720 & 1080 mkv's very well.
Hi there. Mkv file playing via media player but no audio?
Whats the audio format on the mkv file?
Ok, just done some more testing with a few mkv's. Now all the ones i've got have dual AC3 and DTS audio. With the mkv playing, press audio button on your remote and make sure the DTS stream is selected.
Hi
trying to playback MTV with dts audio. Dts audio is selected. Picture is superb but no audio. Any ideas?
Do I need to download a certain plugin to get it working or do I need to convert the audio to different format. Mkv files I have have dts audio?
