>Not to steer this back on topic or anything, but you can mount cifs shares inside the XBMC interface... Can MythBox access these mounts? I don't have XBMC in front of me but I believe you can either do it in the settings - media section (after setting your SMB stuff in settings - Network and restarting) or by entering the Videos section and adding a source.  


MythBox doesn't take advantage of smb:// style mounts internal to XBMC :-(
