Feature: Add set Nas IP and Credentials to settings.

[JAKAMY]

Hi after the new number update changing the Nas ip address in the xml files to adapt to tailscale new ip when on the go doesn't work anymore and says no credentials found when downloading a title.
The current credentials are also encrypted and can't be updated manually.
Please add the option to add a default Nas IP in the settings and the option to edit the credentials/path? 
Tailscale changes the lan nas ip but doesn't support nas discovery, it was working before in old versions before. I can access it in file explorers like cx file explorer.
Thanks

I have the same problem with you, can use cx Explorer...

The settings xml have the line NetworkShareCredentials but cant change manualy cause encrypted.

The solution in my opinion is put the options to add ip, login manualy similar as on cx explorer.

If have a manualy form to do this anyone can help us?

Check if the two flags update beta (1) and the check for last update/version (2) is checked and restart the aplication and update to the last beta version 1.21-beta-1

When update, the option manage nas appears on the options menu and you can change the credentials/path.

For me, is working!

yes i am on the latest beta. The issue isn't the menu option, it's that the saved nas entries can't have the name edited, so if you have dockers running on your nas one day the saved name is synology, another its jellyfin... this makes launchbox think it is not the same nas in the rom path and says no credentials found without an option to add them or edit. The request was to separate the rom paths from current nas name saved and have them use a nas nameid set in the nas management settings. this way the most important would be the ip address entered with the nas name as the entry id. so if my local network nas1 ip is 192...2 and i am working outside, i can go to nas details for nas1 and change the ip to tailscale 100..45 and still be able to access the nas because the rom paths in the platform xml saved as //nasid1/data/r1.zip will have  launchbox replace it on the fly using any ip saved under nas1 and resolve the link without getting blocked by anything else to either //192...2/data/r1.zip or //100..45/data/r1.zip as entered in nas settings.

You have the options above in the nas management:

Login As Guest
Edit Credentials
Change Ip Address
Verify Connection
Scan Network Drives

For me work on this form:
1) put login as a guest to reset the credentials (my nas dont have acess as guest)
2) first login in my local lan, find the nas and add the roms, dont try to do this via tailscale (for me dont work) 
3) now you can edit the ip adress (for tailscale acess) and the credentials if you want, i believe will work for you.

If you put direct the ip adress of tailscale on first login, dont work, i cant find the nas.

If you see two connections on Nas Management you can exclude one of than, you login as a guest and exclude the one if you dont use. You can always use only one connection (via tailscale).

The other changes... xml, etc launchbox do it automatic...

No the networkdriveid value in xmls breaks everything when switching networks and is not editable in settings nor it should be mandatory really. IP should be the king 🙂
