3 minute How to setup a shared folder on Windows 7 for WDTV Live media player

[Vicpapa1]

You're the best! Works perfectly with my Samsung BD-P3600 and Windows 7.

THANK YOU!!

4 words i have to you:

YOU ARE THE KING !!!

[EmilyAllan]

It worked for me. Thank you! I had to set the sharing settings both public and private to the following in Windows 7: My settings are:

"Turn Off Network Discovery"

"Turn On file and printer sharing"

"Turn off public folder sharing"

Then follow your tutorial, and everything is working. My FLAC files are even being recognized and played on my stereo as well. Thank you!

This is by far the best and most simple way to do this thing.And it's not even in the user manual.THANK YOU!!!

Great instructions! I had tried setting up with the GUEST account, using haneNFS and neither worked. This is fast and it WORKS! I am now watching 720p movie on my downstairs TV.

Thanks for taking the time to post!

[ljungren13]

@LUIZAT2004 you could always convert the mkv files with this program: mkv2vob

[sfc7267]

no go my friend, i guess im not sharing correctly. I have 2 hard drives which are dedicated video only drives. it isnt even trying to see them. im pretty sure that it is set up for sharing but idk, any advice helps!

[TheLaird47]

Thank you for this video. Trying to get the shares up on the wdtv was driving me nuts.

[TheSteveSiegel]

didn't work. Network shares don't even show up on WD TV
