The VideoLAN Forums

Hi, I have an 8 TB device connected on a Windows 11 Pro machine serving through it's UPnP server. I can play all the movies on VLC for WIndows on any Windows machine, my Pixel phone and they play fine my Roku, but it will not play any movie on VLC on my 2 Firesticks or my 2 Sony Android TV's. Half the time it just says No media files found and I can't refresh it I can't even get it to go back to the network list. Sometimes I can see the file structure, but it won't play any of the movies. It says to check the log for details and there is no log anywhere I can find.

Since I'm the only one that will answer myself I will. LOL! I fixed the issue on most of my systems by allowing VLC access to storage. That fixed all but my Fire TV Stick 4K.
