I recently picked up a Zidoo Z9S media player.  It has a video wall app called Home Theater 2.0 which needs access to my movie share in order to maintain movie information for each file.  I tested it using "public" but would like to have it be "private" which I assume is the correct approach for security.  How is this done?

When you're adding the source, doesn't it give you an option for credentials? Username / Password?

I am pretty sure it must but I will double check.

Just to follow up, the Zidoo does ask for credentials when trying to connect to the server.  I am going to set up my server using my Window's user name and password per gridrunner's video on "Unraid Shares in Depth".  I think that should do it.
