sorry guys but i am using this syntax, otherwise i could not log into the samba folder and play mp3s.
so, i believe there should be another issue here.
the video quits after a couple of seconds.
any other idea?
thanks for your answers though

yes, i have the same issue with videos.
i can browse no problem, but playing does quit after a second or so.
try using relax in the meantime.
