    Hi,

    Today I have updated from 12.2.0 to last 13 nightly (03052026) and I'm not able to connect to my samba shared units connected to my old Asus AC87U router.

    With libreelec 12.2.0 samba and NFS protocols works fine. The problem is with libreelec 13. Neither samba nor NFS seems to work.

    The router has the latest merlin FW 384.13_10 and it's configured to use SMB1 and SMB2 protocol.

    When I choose the user and password in Kodi, the password file is marked in red and I can not continue. (I'm sure that the password is correct)

    Is it possible to do anything to solve this from the libreelec side, or it's time tu upgrade my old router? I would like to try something before that ... :D

    Any idea?

    Thanks!

    Already tried but it doesn't work.

    I connected the USB to another PC and works fine. Then I downgrade to 12.2.0 and that version works fine on my Intel N100.

    I have forced the usage of ALSA to avoid PulseAudio with the advancedsettings.xml file, and now it seems to be working fine. I will let you know if it stops workings...

    XML
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <advancedsettings>
      <audio>
        <!-- Forzar salida de audio por ALSA -->
        <defaultoutput>ALSA:default</defaultoutput>
      </audio>
    </advancedsettings>

    Thanks for the help!

    I'm having issues streaming videos via SMB in Kodi. I have two sources:

    • A Windows 10 PC
    • An Asus RT-AC87U router running the latest Merlin firmware

    Videos from the Windows PC play perfectly. However, videos from the Asus router always crash after a few secods.

    While playing a video, I press CTRL+SHIFT+O to check the buffer stats. The forward buffer shows ~7.5MB for videos from the PC, but 0.0MB for videos from the router.

    If I force SMB1 as both the minimum and maximum protocol on the router, playback works fine. But I’d like to understand why SMB2/3 fails, especially since:

    • Kodi on the same Intel NUC N100 (running Windows 11) works fine with the router
    • The router logs show errors like:

    Any ideas?
