Window shares set up and WD TV Live
Hello guys.
I've had my readyNAS duo v1 for a few years now and I just recently bought a WD TV Live box for my TV. Now, I have a bit of a problem as the TV box can't see my readyNAS in window shares. It shows up just fine when I search for it as a mediaserver, but if I want to play ISO files it has to be viewed through window shares and it just keeps searching for that. :-(
I read that I might have to set up the share acces, but I must admit that I havn't got a clue as to how to do this. So, can anyone help me out on how to set this up so I can see the NAS via window shares??
I've got the box hooked up to a switch that is connected to the router and the NAS is connected to the router as well. I tried moving the NAS so the box and NAS was connected to the same switch, but that didn't help.
Any kind of help is much appriciated. :-)
Regards Jakob.

- LurifaxAspirantWell it's up and running now.
I have acces to my files and found a way to play them all. ISO, IMG and VOB files lag a bit but a quick conversion to mkv files and everything works like a charm. :-)
Thanks a lot to everyone who contributed. Really appriciate the time and effort. :-)
Kind Regards.
