Can someone help me with setting up my Vu+ to watch movies from my PC

Hi

Im trying to setup my Vu+ to stream movies from my pc but with no luck.

First i downloaded the vlc plugin but this kept crashing the box.
I then read that its possible to use the built in setup so i tried this

It finds my pc on the network and i enter the user name and password

Then i go to mounts management and add the ip etc

But when i go to media player and change location there is no share option

Any help?
