NAS not mounting.

[geordie]

I've been given a NAS drive and I thought I would connect my Humax to it. I already have another on the network and the Humax has no issues.

It is a Synology NAS and the log file entries below are repeated so this describes the issue. The Humax itself can see the new NAS (blue button, Network etc)

The new NAS is the same type as the old one and I have looked for differences but I cannot see any. Of course, I probably have missed something.

Do these log entries point to something.

Solution found,

Set maximum smb protocol to smb2.

Set maximum smb protocol to smb2.

More or less what I was about to say. The CF won't do SMB3.

It is best to set shareFolder=off in the [ModSettings] subfolders to prevent remote drives appearing under My Videos since that can throw of the disk space calculations
