Hope I posted this in the right place. I'm having trouble changing the download folder in Config to a network share (on xbmc live). Normally I would put the network path in //drive/folder/etc. but this isn't working.
In the xbmc live interface I got to use windows smb so the path looked like smb://drive/folder/ I don't think sabnzbd understands this as I just get a folder called smb created?
Is there any way to get my media saved automatically on this drive?
Thanks

Re: changing download folder to network share
On what kind of operating system is SABnzbd actually running
and where are the shares located?

Re: changing download folder to network share
Sabnzbd is running on XBMC live so linux. The share is located on a NAS drive (which i'm accessing from XBMC live using SMB).
Re: changing download folder to network share
You need to mount the share first.
I don't think the OS accepts paths like smb://drive....
The XMBC application interprets that and silently converts it to something else,
or it does it's own SMB protocol.
