import network
I have a hybrid network based on Samba. I can access my files from all my machines individually but I can not add the network directory from the import media option in SB. If use the open location option it shows all my media file. How can I add this folder to the library? I do not want to physically copy the files just access them from my laptop which is running Ubuntu. The server also runs Ubuntu and the files are on an NTFS drive. I can play individual files with vlc, rythmbox and xbmc, but SB has the functionality that I need.
Thanks

Inappropriate?The networked storage has to be mounted correctly and you should have full read/write access to them.
Can you confirm, if that is set up right? -
Inappropriate?I also am having this issue. My platform is CentOS, Gnome 2.16.0. The network has been mounted by browsing to the network location in File Browser (smb://[computername]/[sharename]) and is accessible throughout the OS. I can see an icon on the desktop for this share, and it appears in the "places" windows within Rhythmbox, etc, etc... But is mysteriously absent from the SongBird interface entirely.
My network is Windows "domain" based, and the files are being shared from an external HDD attached to a Windows XP machine. Seems to work fine everywhere except SB.
Perhaps I'm a *nix newbie, and I'm not invoking SB with the correct permissions? I would think if the regular file browser could see it though, then SB shouldn't have a problem...
I’m confused
