JBed ATV2 - Error: Connection Refused

[weidmark]

Hi,

I have searched the forums for this issue and although I have found people with the same error I think mine may be a different circumstance.

I JBed by ATV2 (running 4.3) a few months ago and put XBMC on it. It has been great for streaming from my desktop upstairs. A few days ago I was going to stream a show and when I tried to access the shared folder it gave me the error Connection Refused. I have tried:

Toggling the shared permission on the computer
Re-adding the shared folder on the ATV2
but I really don't know what else I can do.

My PS3 which I also use to stream still works perfectly and gets no errors.

I am really hoping to not have to re-JB it, especially since I dont even know if that will fix the issue.

Any help is much appriciated.

PS i use a wireless connection for my ATV.

I guess this isn't a common thing to happen.

I am puzzled, anyone have any ideas?

where are the files hosted? os?

where are the files hosted? os?

Do you mean the drive that the OS is installed on? If so no they arent on that drive. I installed a 2TB drive just for holding media which is where i stream everything from.

I mean you said you are using XBMC, so obviously you are connecting to another desktop to gain access to those files.

Oh sorry I interpretted what you said another way.

Yes the media is all on a desktop which is running W7 x64
