Using SMB + authentication on Linux

[Giwayume]

I added a SMB folder, vlcscheduler.yaml:

sources:
        - path: smb://192.168.1.200/some/folder/

This SMB share requires username/password authentication. I don't see where to configure that.

VLC Scheduler just says:

Error: The source path is not a directory: smb://192.168.1.200/some/folder/

Can you document how this is intended to work with SMB?

Can you mount the SMB share as a local folder and use the path to the folder as a source?

Certainly, just wondering if there's a way to do it without mounting. Python has libraries to deal with smb.
