Error Accessing the File System?
I have a new clean sage server install, and new client install to 5.0.4 on both. I moved a HDD from a standalone HTPC to the server and left the files on it from before the change. I had three sub directories on the HDD 1) /music 2)/photos 3)/DVD and the imported media was set to each of these for their respective files. After the install I can access the Music, and the Photo's from the media center just like before they work fine, but the DVDs will not play.
I get "Error (-3,0X80070057) There is a problem accessing the file system for playback". I noticed that thru STV the file size is stated as 0MB, but exployer shows them as being there and in the correct file size. The thumbnail icons of the DVDs saved in each DVD folder show up in the media center, it just won't play the DVD. Any suggestion as to what is wrong? Additional info: Server running in service mode. Client running full version as encoder as well as client. All HDD (Two) are in the Server PC. Only the operating system HDD is in the Client.

You're trying to play the DVDs from the client? If so, it needs to see them itself; you can't stream the DVDs via the SageTV server. You could switch the import dir for the DVDs to use UNC paths so that the client can read the files directly.

DVDs are read directly from the filesystem by the client, unlike many/most other media types, which are read by the server and streamed to the client.
Because of this the client needs to be able to access the directory where the DVDs are stored. And it must be at the exact same path that the server sees them at. For example, if you've imported DVDs on D:\DVDs on the server, the client needs to see them at D:\DVDs as well. The easiest way is to simply specify your imports using UNC paths. So for example you would share the DVDs folder as DVDs, then set \\servername\DVDs as an import directory. |
