I have a macbook. I went into System Pref ---> sharing --> and I added all the folders I wanted to share. I also enabled SMB for all of these as well. When I go to add new source through boxee, it only recognizes the "Public" folder, it does not recognize the other folders I have shared (aka, iTunes Music folder).

I have done it several times (added new source) but it says everything is already added. The iTunes Music folder will not show up.

Does anyone have any advice?

Okay, well, boxee now does not recognize the computer as connected. When I go to network sources, I can find the network source (my computer) that was originally connected, but it says "not connected".

I updated it, didn't work.

I rescanned for sources, didn't find anything.

I have the same issue. I am missing one of my share folders off of my server. My other 4-5 folders work (some in the same share), but this one folder always says not connected. I posted about it and haven't received any info yet. Tonight I am going to re-install everything and try again.

Well I issue is a bit different than that. I can see the folder I want to use. I can go into the folder that has all my movies. I can even select a movie folder, but when I go to play the movie it just kinda times out. If I look at that network folder, it says not connected, but other folders in that share work fine.
