In my opinion that is better than mounting network shares from a computer on the TV because the computer does not need to be turned on when you want to play a file.

I will publish the samba package later... before I have to write an usable start script.

Then, I will try generate a custom binary with all printing and authorization features disabled and hope that it needs less memory, less libraries and does not slow down the CPU.

Substituting charset 'ANSI_X3.4-1968' for LOCALE 

I don't know what is wrong but there isn't any file called CP850.so in any samba package. The debian package search does not know that file in any debian package.

Anybody an idea why? Connecting to a real share (if you know the name) works. The whole path to the smbroot and the shares is readable and executable (bad permissions are the main reason for that error). But may be this problem occurs because the TV is a single-user system and the guest account of samba must be mapped to the root user.

Actually, the smbroot is /dtv/usb/sda1/samba. Because the mountpoint of the stick may be different some cases, I am looking for a suitable place in the TV memory. Since recompiled with only small features, the whole samba package has a size around 3MB and requires another 700KB of external libraries.
