Can you view movies on Boxee B that exist on a connected hard drive on Boxee A?
Is this possible? So, on Boxee A there are some hard drives connected and all the movie pictures show with no issues. Is it possible to have another Boxee B in a different room utilize the same hard drives on Boxee A? If so, how? It is setting up a source on Boxee B using smb??

If they are connected to the same network, then yes it's possible and very easy to set up.
Connect hard drive(s) to Boxee A
On Boxee A - Go to Settings -> Network -> Servers -> Check off "Enable Windows file sharing".
On Boxee B - Go to Settings -> File Sources -> Add Sources -> Windows Network (SMB) -> BOXEEBOX -> Select the external drive and set it up as a source.
Done.
thank you!
