Oh I see, the Movies folder is within the Video folder. I thought I mounted folders.
Well you also can do that but need to start with the share
BTW I assume you can remove the vers
entry
Ok, great. Thanks for the help. So I’ve mounted my Video network share (without the vers). I can now cd to /mnt/Video and I can see the contents of that.
A few questions:
- How to remove the other failed attempts that created /mnt/Movies (I tried
umount /mnt/Movies
but I get the errornot mounted
. - Do I need to revert the install of the smbclient?
- How do I now use this new /mnt/Video folder within OSMC? I’m not sure where I need to go.
Many thanks
Hi,
If its not mounted, you can just remove it from fstab and remove the mount point with:
sudo rm -rf /mnt/Movies
sudo rmdir /mnt/Movies
No
Browse to: root file system, mnt, Video
Thanks Tom.
Sounds much too dangerous!
Use sudo rmdir /mnt/Movies
Perfect, that worked. A couple more things just to tie up things:
-
I want to change the username and password to network share as I’m a little paranoid that it has been shared on this forum to troubleshoot. How can I change the credentials used for /mnt/Video or how can I unmount it which will then allow me to re-mount with the correct credentials.
-
I have a separate issue which is, when playing back a 4K movie (using wired gigabit network and a video file size of around 15GB) picture quality is great but the motion is not very smooth. Seems to get very choppy especially during fast moving scenes. When I play the movie, it switches to 4K resolution at 24Hz. Is there anything I can do to improve this?
Thanks very much for the help
Just run umount /mnt/Video
and then you can change the credentials.
BTW you also can write the credentials into a file and then use credentials=/home/osmc/.credentials
in fstab to avoid sharing your credentials when sharing the fstab.
As this would be the third problem you create under your initial thread I suggest you open a new thread for that.
No problem, thank you so much for your help.
