[Samba] Problem: Reading files which are still written...
Hi, I've just upgraded my vdr to Ubuntu 14.04 and now i have Samba 4. On my Windows-machine i can no longer watch videos which are still recording... (with VLC) On samba 3 this was no problem, but on samba 4 the playback always stopps at the point which was the actual filelength wenn i started the playback. I also mounted the video directory to an other linux machine via nfs and shared it there with samba3. This works like ever... i've also downgraded to samba 3 and everything is fine again... I have got no idea whats going wrong there... markus

When you did the 14.04 upgrade, were there any changes made to smb.conf? Maybe if you could post the current smb.conf that doesn't work we could spot something. Cheers, Steve
