Not all shared folders are displayed in PS3

Post by lvbox »

I just installed UMS and during the install it asked me to specify my shared folders. I have several folders I wanted to share, but during the install I only selected one "Movies".
When I went to PS3 it correctly shown that one "Movies" folder.

Now I went into Navigation/Share Settings and added more shared folders.
however PS3 still only shows "Movies" folder and no other.
my Samsung TV correctly shows all the folders I shared.
I tried restarting UMS with "Restart Service" button. Same problem.
Tried re-scanning for media servers in PS3 - same issue. It's as if the original folder listing is cached either at PS3 or at UMS for PS3 only.

Please help.

Thank you.

You have to restart UMS itself for changes in shared folders to register properly.
