    Media stream from any folder other than Videos?


    Is this possible? I'm streaming movies from my Videos folder but is it possible to stream to any other? I tried sharing other folders but TV (Samsung Q60R on Tizen) doesn't recognise anything other than main library.

    Media stream a custom folder to watch on my TV?

    I have a LG TV with webos in it, I'm trying to see custom folders that I've added via the folders "Network Access" (read permissions), for now I see the basic 4 folders which are: Music, Videos, Recorded & Pictures.

    This is how my media streaming options looks like:

    And the customs folder network access:

    I tried the same with my PS4 but couldn't see that folder, I know that I can copy videos to the Videos folder but I want to use a different folder from a different disk.
