Switching from addon to native: question re network credentials


Recommended Posts

After spending some time in these forms, I learned that the only way to enable chapter thumbnails is to use Emboy for Kodi in native mode. So, I deleted my local library from the add-on and, when prompted, chose native mode instead. Kodi subsequently asked me for my server name, which I entered. It then also asked me for a login and password. Is this login/password combo my Emby server login? Or is it the login & password to access my server (Windows, btw) over my network?

 

Thanks.

Network credentials. The same you use to access the samba share.

Thanks. I honestly don't think I even have a login for samba shares. I open it up to anyone on the network. However, I tried leaving the info black and still got an error. Do you happen to know what to do in this instance?

AFAIR there was a change in Kodi/Win10 with anonymous samba access and you need one now. But don't ask me what, when or where it was changed :)
