Cant access Media Files on server... (1 Viewer)

I recently installed Media Portal and have in general had no problems getting it working apart from one (very important) thing! Despite my best efforts I cannot get it to pick up media content stored on my server.

All drive mappings and access is ok. I've tried adding the paths into the setup but it just refuses to see any media not stored on c:\

Any advice? :?:

R u using a Firewall on your server and have you allowed a network conn from your HTPC?

Have you shared the drive or are you just surfing in via c$

Not using a firewall.

Dirves are statically mapped and files are accessible from other media applications on my PC (eg Media Player etc)

Also have media on a second hard drive on my PC which is similarly inaccessible. This drive is mapped as D:\

I think I'm just not configuring something correctly in MediaPortal. I've gone through everything in the setup but can get it to pick up media anywhere by C:\

Is there a config file that I can manually configure?
