I have a new LG 50PS80 plasma tv. I can, hard wire, connect the tv to the internet through my router. I have two desktop PC's connected to my home network through the router. When I get into Netcast>My Media>Network>it shows both pc's in the network. When I click on one of the Pc's, it shows all the photo files on that PC and I can view the photos. When I click on the other PC, it lists all of the photo folders on that pc but, when I try to open tha folders, I get the msg. "Failure to view folder". Both PC's run XP Pro and are in the same workgroup on the network and have file sharing enabled on each folder. I have tried everything that I can think of but can, still, only view photos from one pc. I would appreciate any suggestions.

ok I found a permanent solution guys! The issue with Windows 7 & Windows Vista if you have any is the LAN Manager Authentication Level.

Here's what you do:
1. Open the Run command and type "secpol.msc".
Optional: (2. Press "continue" when prompted by UAC.)
3. Click on "Local Policies" --> "Security Options"
4. Navigate to the policy "Network Security: LAN Manager authentication level" and open it.
By default Windows Vista sets the policy to "NTVLM2 responses only". Windows 7 was undefined in my experience.
5. Change this to "LM and NTLM ? use NTLMV2 session security if negotiated".
6. Click OK.
Once you?ve done this Windows Vista will be able to view network drives based on Samba servers and should fix any issues around using Samba as a Primary Domain Controller.

and NO REBOOT REQUIRED! I'm so happy to have fast streaming 1080p mkvs now. Hope somebody else will get a use out of this.

All the thanks for the help goes to this random tutorial I found online: http://www.builderau.com.au/blogs/codemo...htm?p=339270746
