Connecting to local network shares

Im trying to connect to a shared folder or just even the windows media player library on the xbox one app, what should be the full path if my share was just the c drive?

Hi,

I guess it should be available automagically when you select "browse" in the main menu. If it does not show, are you sure it is accessible from the network from other apps?

I do have the same issues

shares are available on the same network (WIFI for XBOX One & Wifi for my windows 10)

VLC (not from store but with installer) works on windows 10, not for XBOX One

addition :
SMB shares on the NAS are sometimes accessible

I have no idea why access is sometimes OK, sometimes KO
