can no longer share folder with blu ray player
« on: April 19, 2014, 08:45:42 PM »
i finally got my new rig up and running; also, i left XP behind and installed Win 7

problem is, now i can't share my movie folder with my LG BD670 blu ray player

it was simple and easy in XP...just right click the folder, select share, and voila, it showed up on my blu ray player

in 7, i've done all the appropriate steps to share the same folder, but it's not showing up on my player...i see the folders MUSIC, VIDEOS, PICTURES, and PLAYLISTS, but not the new folder i created in my Libraries called DOWNLOADS

anyone tech savvy enough to help me out with this?

*the DOWNLOADS folder is on my 4th hard drive, not my OS SSD...if that makes any difference

I had the same problem.  I got sick of it and just deleted the homegroup on my network profile and shared folders became visible.  Try out KBW's solution first though.
