Network folders (NAS) support? (1 Viewer)

[ronzelver]

I can not access my Music library on my NAS?! Ok, if I map the NAS-folder to a 'local' drive, but I would like native network support. Anyway, many thanks for developing this great tool

Well, there is support for it.
The only problem is that i need Interop.Shell32.dll for it.

If i compile on Vista, which i do, it'll not work on XP.
so i would need to build on XP to have it work on both systems.

i'll see what i can do. Maybe i'll do the release builds on a XP Virtual Machine.

 

[ronzelver]

Maybe, you could post two builds for the time being?!?

 

[hwahrmann]

well, if i can build on XP, there's no need to have a second build.
It's just a question of setting up a build environment now

Maybe someone running XP can do it for you

 

[hwahrmann]

Ok, i tried now.
Works perfect on XP but doesn't on Vista.

It will take a while, before i find some time to debug the cod, so in the meantime, map your shares to a drive letter.

Instead of building too versions (for xp and vista) you could solve the problem with a plugin-system.
so you can extend functions via plugins for different operating systems

 

[hwahrmann]

Well to have a plugin system just for handling this one different behaviour is a bit overhead.
i'll try chasing down what happens on Vista, but haven't found time yet.

I understand this will take some time, but just in support, I second the request to be able to access network drives.
