DMS IP control

[FrankD]

I'm trying to use the PLAY, "filepath", END command to directly play a file.

The file is stored local in a directory structure on sata1.

What is the compete path I have to fill in to get this working? I have no clue about the root where the path name should begin.
Tried the obvious paths but so far nothing worked.

DMS Main share is at....\\android_xxxxxx\share
.
My Movies as an example is at....\\android_xxxxxx\share\sata\sata2\Movies
.
Where the 'xxxxxx' is a substitute for the uniqueness of your unit.

I use the VLC player and have no problems doing this!

Thanks,

I was close.
Nice that in my explorer the device presents itself as ANDROID_XXXXX on the network. Obviously the programmer has different ideas about case sensitivity...

Going to use this box as a test pattern generator. Having the ability to access the patterns under a button press on an iPad saves me a trip to the dumpster.

Tried it and it will not work no matter what I tried. Other ip commands work over the network but this one isn't.

This is the final straw.
This pos that pretends to be a movie server is going into the dumpster.
