My setup has a MySQL server with a local xbmc running on a win7, and a pi running xbian, using the SQL db using the advanced settings.xml

It used to work fine, until today, when all of a sudden the xbian fails to open any of the titles it gets from the db. (But it does get the titles from the db)

My db is using a static IP address. No changes to the windows sharing.

I suspect the PCM settings nevertheless. I oun out there is no smb client on he xbian. Also apt-get fails to find an smb client.

How do I debug the reason for the smb access failure?

Thanks,
Dan

XBMC is using internal functions (and system libs) to connect to various sources including smb sources.

try to play an item and check /home/xbian/.xbmc/temp/xbmc.log for some logged messages.
