Existing SMB share access on all my FireTV's lost & only on my FireTV's
Posted: 21 May 2023, 08:13
All my FireTV devices lost access to my SMB Share recently. My other devices still have access.
I wiped all MrMC settings and clean app install.
I found that MrMC could not see my SMB share or any shares.
I enabled "Use libdsm for smb servers" and my share became visible.
When I try to add new Video source, I selected Browse > Windows network (SMB) > Select my share name and...
Error Login authorization failed with error code: 1 or sometimes -1984751464.
MrMC does NOT prompt for login credentials before attempting connection. Of course it's going to fail. It does not know my share user name and password.
Nothing I do allows me to input my username and password, using browse.
I've tried manually pointing to my SMB share, via "Add network location" with credentials but it fails.
I really just want to browse, click my smb share name, enter my credentials, and have it login & connect.
I even reset one of my FireTV's to factory. Reloaded all apps and settings. Tried MrMC setup once more and still same issue.
MrMC was working great for many years on my network, with this video share and now all my FireTV's can't connect.
It's been years since I last setup MrMC on my video share. I don't remember it being so difficult to set up.
Some help please.
