[PATCH] Persistent mountpoints for SAMBA / NFS Shares

[pcristi]

After every official f/w install scripts is lost, need RUN_ME batch file again.

Hi everyone ,

Since I upgraded my Q5Pro to HDM-1.0.8 ,the automount shortcut doesn't work anymore ,I need to open the shortcut in the MediaCenter manually first to be able to access it in Kodi ,so ,any idea for restore the automount functionality ?? Can I use the RUN_ME batch file again or this method will erase the previous shortcut for create a new one at another path ?

Thank you .

How do I get Kodi to see my 2 Qnap's when using NFS? Nothing happens when I try browse network using NFS. It's working fine in the other Mediaplayer and even play video using NFS. I thought it was going to work now because of the NFS fix in latest firmware.

Thanks for the new version.

I have updated opening post and re-written the out of date instructions.

I've also made the thread sticky to go with the other patch threads.

There should be a subdirectory under mmt/nfsshare containing your NFS share.

If the patch hasn't created this subdirectory then either the share wasn't created properly in media center in the first place or the patch has not completed successfully.

Does the NFS share you created in media center appear in media center as a shortcut?

Can you see a subdirectory under mmt/nfsshare using a file browser app like ES File Explorer?

If you're sure the shortcut is there then run the patch again. This process definitely works. I just re-tested it on an NFS share with Kodi. Resume also works, at least before a reboot. I haven't tested it with a reboot.

There is. But empty...

The patch was successful. the picture i attached is from the 2nd time i execute it.

Does the NFS share you created in media center appear in media center as a shortcut?

yes its there. look at the screen. sometimes i can not enter "bad error" or "bad server" something error message. in Kodi e.g. it works everytime.

Can you see a subdirectory under mmt/nfsshare using a file browser app like ES File Explorer?

i used ES and the folder is empty.

If you're sure the shortcut is there then run the patch again. This process definitely works. I just re-tested it on an NFS share with Kodi. Resume also works, at least before a reboot. I haven't tested it with a reboot.

the shortcut is there. i tested with both .BAT. why there is sometimes the error message?

thank you 4 your help!

A couple of things to try:

You get an error when installing the patch. Try running the batch file to uninstall patch then reinstalling it.

Your NFS shortcut in media center contains the '/' character. I don't know for sure but this may cause problems when used for mapping in the Android filesystem. Re-create the share and give it a name with only alphanumeric characters.

Ok. I executed the patch now three times. The first time was without an error. All others contain this "error".

I created the nfs in my synology (/volume1/video)
Than i go into the media center and there to the option nfs
Auto search
He finds my nas... i click on it...goes in and i see the content folders.
He ask for a name (long) and name (short)
I typed in "video" (without "")
Hit OK
shortcut is displayed as you can see on the screen above.
Execute the bat from my win 10 pro PC
Himedia Reboot alone
Going to the mnt/ nfsshare folder  ? empty

Mhhh..

I don't have this problem.

What type of share is it (Samba/NFS - NAS/Windows PC)? I suspect you'll need to set permissions on the folders to be viewable by all.
