Try Kodi, it's awesome!

Thanks; I'll try it.

Tried Kodi, and I agree, it's great. Works perfectly with my media NAS. Didn't realize XBMC had changed its name.

VLC media player is an open source software.It is available for all platform like Linux,mac OS,Solaris etc.

What's your point? How does this relate to the thread topic?

+1. Exact same issue. Sees the server; says directory is empty. Can anybody here recommend another player since we're obviously not getting support from VLC? Just want to play avi, mp4, mkv, etc. from my Windows Home Server to my Shield TV...
