    Playing AVI, MPG, MOV In 7.04 through Network

    Ok with Freespire i could play my AVI's, Mpg's, and Mov's through my network without problems. When I try to do this through Kubuntu 7.04 it wouldn't play at all. Installed VLC and will play but downloads it to a temp file first which takes time. Any answers on how to make play straight off the network without downloading to temp file.

    Personally i mount the network share and from then i play with mplayer. Ofc you must have already installed samba if the network its with windoze computers. Luck

      Like Summary said. I have tried to make this work for about 6 months now, and so far, the only solution I have come up with is to mount the windows share and then access the files. That will allow you to play them directly.
      The command used to mount network drives would be something like this:
      Code:
      sudo mount -t smbfs //ip_of_remote_machine/share /mount/point -o username=username_to_share,password=pass_to_share
      - Delphi
