Hi John, I gather you have connection from the linux system to the NAS (ie you can browse the files on the NAS using dolphin) Are you able to "right click" an avi file on the NAS from dolphin and "open with /kaffeine"? I have been running a NAS with a Mandriva box for about 6 months and this works fine for me. (Yes, I am also using SAMBA) Interestingly following your post I tried to use the open and file browse functionality from within kaffeine. My NAS is mounted to my file system, and browising it through the 'file system' rather than directly over the network works fine. It seems I, like you, have trouble from within kaffeine accessing the NAS using the remote protocols.
