with this build, it seems to run SMB better. to a point

it will allow browse, setup of sources, and start of playback of media. however after approx 5-10 mins of playback it quits playback and returns focus to the source menu.

heres a pastebin of the logs.

The smb client for windows hasn't changed for ages. It's rather old but it needs high effort to port it to windows. Everyone is welcome to try ;)

I never quite understood the use of the smb client on the windows platform?!? windows already has smb networking built in, so why not just rely on that? just map a network drive or even access unc paths (haven't tried unc, but network drives work just fine, of course).

To keep the ports clean of too much differences and you can't adapt it straight forward as windows maps it directly to a drive letter.
Anyway additionally the win32utils.cpp already contains code for mounting shares on startup via the windows API but the implementation in XBMC seems to have changed and it's not working anymore.

I have this same issue where smb shares seems to quit on me randomly while playing a video. I haven't seen this happen when the same file was played locally.
I was about to post about this myself. I don't use the svn 14022 just the latest 13859.
But I'll try and use Obstler's suggestion and hope that won't have any of the sudden quit problems anymore.


That was the only little thing that bugged me with the version I use.

Maybe I should check out C and Visual studio again... I normally program in Delphi. And try to figure out the simpler bugs/features to work on.
Was there somebody who has tried to compile in Codegear's ++ builder.
