have 2014 15" MBP, latest VLC 2.2.1 and Synology NAS on my LAN.
i have buch of movies on it and Quick access configured so i can access it via web browser from anywhere.
problem:
if i want to watch MKV file, that is not supported via web browser, i need to use VLC. remotely i can create a public direct link to the file and then paste it into VLC - open network dialog / URL
It accepts it, however it never plays. Any advice?
if i paste the link into web browser, it will start downloading the MKV file, so path is correct. obviously i don't want to download. i want to stream directly from the source.
