Cloud home and VLC on apple TV

Hi.

I just brought a Cloud home today, and trying to set it all up on my apple TV.

So far it works with Plex, it was easy.

Now im trying to get it to work with VLC.

In VLC it can find the server “mycloud…SMB” and I log in to it with my Cloud home username and password. Then a map called public shows up, but it is empty.

I have searched the internet for a guide to set it up, but cant find it.

Not sure if this is the right forum, but I hope you can help. Thanks.

The My Cloud Home is not a traditional NAS. It has a private user space which Plex can use and a default Public share with is a SMB network share. VLC probably can only see traditional network shares and cannot see the private user space. See the post below. It is for a different product but probably the same issue

Visit the Learning Center for the Home in WD Support. There is also a pdf user manual that is essential, and videos, too.
