i have a NAS (SilverStore 2-Drive NAS) in which i store all my FullHD video recordings.
The NAS shares the folders as public.
In fact from my windows 8 pc i can access them using Windows Explorer at this address:
\\192.168.48.100\Public\Videos
I have an Android mini pc connected to my TV and I would like to access my videos from there.
Anyway when I try with Android Explorer 192.168.48.100 is found as a network place, but if i try to open it it says "try another username/password?"
How to access from Android a shared folder that from Windows is seen as public?
What's "Android Explorer"? Do you mean the default Web browser? Have you tried a file system app like ASTRO or ES File Explorer? – ale – 2013-08-19T00:38:42.630

Or search google play for a network media player until you find one that uses the file sharing protocol your NAS is using so you can directly browse the network location from the media player. – Damon – 2013-08-20T08:15:40.903
@Damon it is SMB, but i found a way to access, see my own answer – user193655 – 2013-08-29T07:31:34.253
@AlEverett By "explorer" i mean the an app called "Eplorer" (wtih white icon made of paper boxes) that was alerady installed on my device. It is a tool to browse local folders, sd cards, usb and network places. – user193655 – 2013-08-29T07:33:10.277
Ah. That must be specific to the Android mini-pc. – ale – 2013-08-29T09:58:46.413
