Yes, I have tried the default levels and tried turning min and max to smb1. Same issue. Only "benefit" I gain when using smb1 is my ability to browse samba network. 
I just looked in my file service settings on my nas and min is smb1 and max is smb2.
Sorry for the late reply have been out of town. Yes I am sure I am putting in the correct user/pass when prompted. I even created a new user on my Synology box just to make sure it was not a permission issue. Same problem. It will not play any videos until several mins after a reboot. Still, Zeroconf works just fine. Any other information I can give you to help? Very stumped on why the user/password doesn't want to take until after a period of time. Once again, when I do a share via my Windows computer, I don't have this issue. Only when the files are pointed to my Synology box. I have not played with any of the SAMBA settings on my Synology box btw...
Synology DS218+
Would it help if I provided a log with the issue and wait the 10 mins or so when it starts working? Will that help in your troubleshooting? The one provided earlier, I did not wait until it started working to create...
Thanks again for your help.
Hi I thought I would wait about a week until I asked again if anyone had a chance to look into this. If I need to upload the log a different way please let me know. New to this forum. Very curious on this issue.

I am not sure that worked the link above. If not, I attached the KODI log.
As I hope the log shows, when I restarted, I tried to play a few of my movies and it initially did not work. But as usual about 10 mins later it played (after I had pulled the log of course...).
Creating a fresh install of 9.0 now. Will post shortly. Thanks again!
Hi thanks for the reply. My NAS is already set to as the master browser and is so according to my LANscan. Any other ideas? I don't think it is an election issue, as my other computers can see my NAS even when I restart my Kodi box...
Hi, I have had my video files on my Windows 7 computer for years. I connected via SMB (smb://) with no issues. However, when I upgraded to a Synology NAS to save power, I can connect via SMB. But, when I restart my Kodi device, it will not see my shares for about 10 mins. Any idea? I am willing to troubleshoot.
This same problem exists on 8.2.5 and the new 9.0 trying fresh installs. The problem does not happen with my zeroconfig. But I am curious as to what is causing the SAMBA issue only with regards to my NAS. Is it a setting on my Libreelec or a setting in my NAS?
I just tried to share a video file on another Windows 7 machine and my Kodi sees the files immediately after a Kodi reboot.
Wired Ethernet connection on my PI 3B.
