VLC for Android and Chrome OS • Unable To Access Media in Shared Network Folders



Using VLC For Android, 3 5.4. I seem to be unable to access the media files in the shared folders of my network connected PC. VLC manages to recognize the PC and the shared folders, but on selecting a folder, I get “No media files found, please transfer some files to uour device or adjust your preferences “
My PC is running Win11 and SMB1 is activated (is this necessary?). The other PCs on the network are able to access the media files from this PC, just not my Android media box. In VLC, checking and unchecking “prefer SMB 1” does not make a difference.
