New Samba Shares cannot be accessed from Android/Zidoo media server

I get it but this is a media server and media devices work with netbios. As mentioned in other thread there should be a click the button in the gui that could say this might be dangerous but it shouldn’t take months of searching to find the solution nor a 2 page thread without a solution because something that Is taken for granted is off. Just my opinion.

You cannot blame OpenMediaVault for the horrible software of these Zidoo devices. No device should be using SMB1 or NETBIOS anymore. Go google "EternalBlue" or "WannaCry"!

If your Zidoo does only support SMB1 go use NFS instead or install that Kodi Fork. Kodi has an integrated SMB client that supports SMB3 and i think WSD too.

It uses netbios it is smb 3 I was using nfs. NFS appeared to have random stutters. Not the end of the world but annoying. They appear so far to be better with smb.

If they cant update their software and also use a current Android version you should think about replacing the unit.

Even a cheap FireTV 4K Stick is a better solution than this. Uses less than 1W. Uses almost no space. And you can install Kodi, Plex, Jellyfin etc. 4K, HDR, Atmos and different refresh rates just work and your av-reciever can handle the sound with eARC.

Doesn’t do 3d

The FireTV Stick can do 3D! Just not 3D Multiview Video Codec. But you can convert that to 3D SBS or 3D TAB. Yes it looses some quality but 3D Video is dead anyway for home cinema. You cant even buy a new 3D TV anymore. The only place it still might have a chance is VR/AR.

I have a large library of 3dmvc. Over a 100
