Very slow folder navigation Apple TV

[smolz]

I have added a couple of shares to the Videos section. These are 2 folders sharing via smb from a vista machine. My problem is navigating around the interface, i can click into the 1st level of the source, but i click menu to back out and it takes anywhere from 1-5 mins to actually go back. Am i doing something wrong?

No, you must have a problem there. It shouldn't take anywhere near that long. I'm is working fine with the latest updates although XBMC does take longer to shut down now.....10 to 15 seconds to go back to the main ATV menu screen.
you may have to reinstall your patch to correct this problem, but try to re Patchstick before starting from scratch? Good luck.

Did you figure out a solution to this? I seem to be having the same problem. Did reinstalling the patch help?

How is you network configured (especially your samba share) ?

A couple of years ago, I had these issues when I didn't point directly to the IP of the host machine. I resolved that in adding IP, login and password within the bookmarks file.

Something like that :

<bookmark>
<name>Network My PC</name>
<path>smb://xbox:password@ip/MySharedDrives</path>
</bookmark>
Hope, it could help.

I'll give that a try.

what I am using right now is just normal Windows SMB...and I also have the old ccxstream, but seem to be having the same problem with both...really slow when opening folders...as well as it takes about 5 min pluss to open a video file
