I have been using a NAS, and my Mi TV box will access the network share to play the files inside (SMB).

I set up a simple Windows 10 PC recently to replace the NAS as it is old. I have already shared my media folders. I tested, my MacBook can actually access the folders.

However, my Mi TV box cannot, it just kept saying that the network share is not accessible.

Any tip for me to solve this?

Seems to be SMBv1. Win10 is using the new version of SMV\B protocol. Even when I enabled it to support SMBv1 clients, still no go. And not just my Mi Box, the other Android box, or tablets all cannot access, while my MacBook and Windows PC no problem accessing. Was considering downgrade it to Win7, but in the end I installed Kodi and let it share my media library over uPnP. It works. Since my Android boxes are just to consume media over network, so this way works for me.
