Hey all, I've been holding off updating to Kodi 19 however while I was away my wife updated to Kodi 19 trying to fix it not working (all it was - the host computer had lost network access - but alas too late).
I have updated Kodi on the three devices (host PC, Network Laptop & Android TV),  and all three show the correct movies/tv shows. However when I go to play them from the remote devices it says file not found - remove from library (or similar).
It works on the host computer Kodi (with advanced settings using 127.0.0.1)
I'm able to play the movies on the laptop (not using Kodi) so am struggling to figure what the issue may be.
Log File
Hopefully someone can shed light.
Cheers

It looks like your source is expecting a username and password:

Code:

Can't connect to "\\192.168.1.10\Media II" without username and without password

 

Here's a thread on changes to SMB support in Kodi 19 that will probably help.

That was awesome thanks pkscout!!

You're correct - It was due to the permissions on SMB requiring a password now in version 19.
For anyone else - this thread was helpful
In particular dkangel noting to create a password.xml (in userdata folder with advancedsettings) with the following:

Code:

<passwords>
    <path>
        <from pathversion="1">smb://IP ADDRESS/</from>
        <to pathversion="1">smb://username:password@IP ADDRESSS/</to>
    </path>
</passwords>
