Mounting NTFS HDD with samba on K-R42

[gsavicic]

Anyone done that? I have managed to setup samba on my previous android mini pc (mk808) it was developer edition of app (samba filesharing from xda-developer forum), with this k-r42 i could not set it up. I have tried mentioned app, but nothing is appearing in windows network, other app samba server from playstore not working with windows 7. Is there any other way to show this hdd in my network so i can stream files? Only i have succeded to mount it like ftp server, but in that case i can only copy files first to my pc and then play it. I would like to stream directly from hdd. Thanks in advance!

I have T-R42 and my HDD streams No problem with Samba FileSharing from XDA. Can you stream your SD or internal memory?

I have tried today mounting usb drive formatted in fat 32. App crashed after trying to enable it. I have followed instructions from xda. Unit is rooted, i have installed developer version, disabled smb.conf replacing, and i have manually replaced smb.conf file with this one:

# Auto-generated by com.funkyfresh.samba
#
#
# smb.conf last written on 2013-07-03_12-49-11 app build 111105d
#
#
# Manual edits of smb.conf are not supported.
#
#
# Sharing of non FAT based filesystems is unsupported. Do so at your own peril.

Path to the hdd is correct. That same procedure worked with no problems on mk808, but on this k-r42 app is allways crushing after enabling it, and i dont have hdd in network.
