Title: Wrapper doesn't work (Solved)
Post by: LeoeL on February 05, 2017, 07:42:22 PM
I apologize but I didn't understand if, to use the wrapper I must enter my Samba account or not.
I ask that because I can't use the wrapper even if I flag the wrapper.
Kodi returns "Wrapper ha stopped"
Where do I fail?
I have FW 2.0.1 and Kodi 17 RC2 but with final is the same.

Yes you must enter your Samba details in wrapper app (My Apps - Wrapper).

Try reinstalling the wrapper.

* How to reinstall or uninstall wrapper? Using firmware 1.0.5 or later go My Apps - Wrapper and select either 'use wrapper player' or 'use Kodi player'. Toggling to 'use Kodi player', exiting wrapper app, then running wrapper app again and selecting 'use wrapper player' will reinstall wrapper.

An alternative way to access Samba shares which might work better for you is detailed in this thread: http://www.futeko.com/newforum/index.php?topic=813.0

Tks, but Samba details are mandatory even if Q10 reads files using UPNP ?

What is the exact format for the samba details, please? There is only a user and password field in wrapper. I would expect at least one additional field for server and share information.

Wrapper samba credentials are to the media shared on a external server, or the internal samba credentials for q10?

Does this means that the wrapper is unable to play files provided trough a plex server addon?

The wrapper is Samba only (or Samba and NFS if used in conjunction with the persistent mountpoint patch I linked to in my earlier post).

Other details (path etc) are entered in Kodi.

If you have more than one password protected Samba share you need to use the patch method. http://www.futeko.com/newforum/index.php?topic=813.0

The Samba details are for the Samba share (on PC, NAS etc) you are trying to access.

Plex servers use uPnP so are not compatible with the wrapper.
