[QUOTE="Lehmden, post: 1076779, member: 109222"] OK, So you don't run the MP2 server on the Buffalo. Yes, that's by design. Mapped drive letters are not used. UNC path is the way to go... \\Server\Share\Videos instead of Z:\Videos. It happens real often that mapped drive letters are unavailable. E.g. after a restart normally no mapped drive is available until someone open it in explorer. MP2 can't do this. Neither can MP1 also mapped drives are allowed there (what leads to lots of problems in case of unavailable drive). So it's not a good way to connect shares. You need to add the media sources as "Network Neighbourhood" (last option on third screenshot). Then you should see your Buffalo and you can add your media. [/QUOTE]
