Please log in for more thread options Actually, this won't work. MCE does not support recording to a Network
Share by default. This is because the necessary services run under the
System account's credentials and that account does not have network access.
It can be done, however, by adjusting the permissions on the necessary
services, to run with a local user account, instead of the System account.
Also, you need to manually edit the Registry to change the Recorded TV
location to use the UNC path to the NAS device you want Recorded TV Stored
on.
