[QUOTE="aswede, post: 396938, member: 89689"] Thaks for your suggestion. I am not sure I did exactly what you suggested, dmin but what I did do was to create a new account on my local machine, with admin rights. Then I took this new account, and verified that I could read and right to the network drive, without using a password ... I just typed in the UNC name in the address field of a window, and the folder opened up. I then tried starting MediaPortal, from this new account, and wuth the Recodring Folder set to the same UNC address. No luck. I then mapped the shared drive to a drive letter (T), and then used this mapped drive letter in setting up the recording folder T:/TV. Again, no cigar! What am I doing wrong here??
