Accessing a file via Samba

Hi all,

I do not have enough experience for Mac OS. I want to implement QT to my project and play movies on intranet.

On Windows, I can play the movie with the following address:
\\172.16.0.120\Share\sample.mpg

On Mac, I can't play the movie with the following address:
sbm://172.16.0.120/Share/sample.mpg

When I wrote this address on Safari, Mac OS tried to open "sample.mpg" folder which does not exist...

 

I can access the file via "Finder" -> "Go" -> "Connect to Server", and then I am clicking all folders...

I can access the file with the following address If I map this MAPPED-PC (172.16.0.120):
file:///Volumes/MAPPED-PC/Share/sample.mpg

 

But I still can not access with "sbm://172.16.0.120/Share/sample.mpg", isn't there a way to do this with smb?

Can sbm (Samba protocol?) direct access a file or is this protocol only for directory accessing?

 

I am sure the Share folder inside of the folder that is the root of the samba share.

I can write down my code, maybe it can help a bit.

This html code works on windows:

Code:

<object classid="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B" width="352" height="352" codebase="http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab#version=7,3,0,0" id="qt">
  <param name="src" value="blank.mpg">
  <param name="enablejavascript" value="true">
  <param name="postdomevents" value="true">
  <param name="autostart" value="false">
  <param name="qtsrcdontusebrowser" value="true">
  <param name="qtsrc" value="\\172.16.0.120\Share\Sample.mpg">
  <param name="scale" value="tofit">
  <embed src="blank.mpg" width="352" height="352" pluginspage="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/" name="qt" id="movie_embed1" enablejavascript="true" postdomevents="true" autostart="false" qtsrcdontusebrowser="true" qtsrc="\\172.16.0.120\Share\Sample.mpg" scale="tofit">
</object>

but this does not work on mac:

Code:

<object classid="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B" width="352" height="352" codebase="http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab#version=7,3,0,0" id="qt">
  <param name="src" value="blank.mpg">
  <param name="enablejavascript" value="true">
  <param name="postdomevents" value="true">
  <param name="autostart" value="false">
  <param name="qtsrcdontusebrowser" value="true">
  <param name="qtsrc" value="smb://172.16.0.120/Share/Sample.mpg">
  <param name="scale" value="tofit">
  <embed src="blank.mpg" width="352" height="352" pluginspage="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/" name="qt" id="movie_embed1" enablejavascript="true" postdomevents="true" autostart="false" qtsrcdontusebrowser="true" qtsrc="smb://172.16.0.120/Share/Sample.mpg" scale="tofit">
</object>

When I wrote "file:///Volumes/MAPPED-PC/Share/sample.mpg" in address bar on Safari and hit the return button, movie starts inside of the Safari.

I could access file via "Connect to Server" and then I right-clicked the movie and then I selected "Get Info" and I saw "Server: smb://172.16.0.120/Share/Sample.mpg" in General panel...
