I am wondering if there has been a fix/resolution for SAMBA working for Apple products (Macs', Macbooks' Apple TVs' etc). I am currently using the last build from Dec '19. (forgot the build number)

I am using a Netgear R9000 that allows to view files that are on my external hard drive. I have video files that I stream to my Apple TV from a couple of network hard drives.

I think the implementation that was introduced when I wasn't able to view my files anymore was "wsdd2" was my understanding from browsing the forum (correct me if I am wrong).

Any help input would be greatly appreciated.

WSD is Web Services for Devices, a Microsoft API and wsdd2 is for Windows discovery.

You will need something like Avahi mDNS/DNS-SD for Apple devices to see the shares without having to access them directly.

Someone will need to make a request, then fingers crossed. Maybe it's already there however, I haven't checked.

I know there is an Entware package for Avahi. Eventually, Windows 10 will migrate to mDNS/DNS-SD.

Thanks for the input ... I pray someone submits a request. I will look into seeing how I can do that myself.
