New Install of Xbian not asking for source type - Baz8755 - 24th Oct, 2013 04:00 PM
Hi,
Last night I installed Xbian Beta 1.1 on my new Pi and spent the whole evening trying to add a video source.
Having watched a YouTube video and reading discussions it would appear that after adding a UPNP share I should get a screen that asks what type of folder it is, but I do not get this screen. It simply adds the folder and the only way I can see my movies is with the file list. When I get back and right click the source I do not have the add to library option and when I edit it there is still no option to set type.
I spent the entire evening trying to get this to work and did several fresh installs to no avail. What do I need to set up to get this extra screen?
Cheers
Baz

[Resolved] found that using UPNP was the issue, now using Samba shares
