Shared files with Windows XP and Boxee

[doghanna]

First I would like to say thanks in advance for any help anyone can offer. I am trying to set up boxee on my Mac that is connected to a network that also uses a computer with windows XP.

My home network works fine and front row can access the files on the XP computer. When I try to add content in Boxee under the Settings/Media Sources, only the files and drives on my mac appear. I can also access everything else over the internet. The XP computer files never appear.

Can someone suggest any other items that I need to include in my setup which follows:

network:
nothing checked

Servers:
Enabled web server is checked
Web server Port 8800 (this port has been forwarded on my router}
Web server passord has been entered

SMB Client
only the workgroup name has been entered

I have tried to access the XP files through the manual method of inputing it's IP address 192.168.1.2 without luck.

Did you ensure that both machine are on same workgroup?

[doghanna]

Yes they are on the same workgroup since I can access everything on both computers without boxee.

It must be something in my setup.

the webserver stuff is unrelated. you can turn that off.

what do you see when you manually browse the network?
boxee > video > browse > network > ???
