First of all, welcome to the forum, blackfox135.
The first thing I would do is take a look at your supported files. These are the files, resolutions and audio codec combinations that PCShare will support, and they must fall into all three combinations for the unit to work:

So if those fall into line, I suggest that it may be a HDCP issue, so you also might want to check to make sure you have the latest drivers for your computer. If you have a branded computer, go to their website with your model number. If you have a "piece together", go to the website of the video card manufacturer for your search.
That actually seems to be the problem based on what you wrote. If the thumbdrive works, it appears that the codecs would be accepted for your PC as well. I'd definitely check the drivers.
Keep me posted!

I'm glad I found this forum. Samsung said one didn't exist. Just spent an hour discussing my problem with a Samsung tech to no avail. Had to ask them to open the manual to page 89 to help me out.
Anyway enough of the bbb....
My problem is this.
I can view video from my usb stick, but if the same video is put on my pc and I use Vista Media player to stream to the pc - it says media not supported. I can view the same pictures and music on my usb stick and stream from Vista, but I cannot stream video from Vista which I can watch from the USB stick. The videos are encoded with xvid and all are less than 800x600. Has anyone had a similar problem.
And for some reason, I can't get Samsung PC Share to show anything in the folders - says there is no media available.
Thanks in advance
