Dear Infuse Team,
I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention an issue with SMB protocol compatibility in Infuse.
I recently set up an SMB share on a Linux server, which is configured to use SMB 3.1.1 for enhanced security and performance. The setup works flawlessly across multiple devices and applications, including iPad, iPhone, and Windows 11, as well as apps like nPlayer and Fileball. However, Infuse is unable to access the SMB share.
After extensive troubleshooting, I have concluded that the issue lies with Infuse’s lack of support for the SMB 3.1.1 protocol. Downgrading the SMB protocol to a lower version resolves the issue, but this compromises the security and performance benefits offered by SMB 3.1.1.
Given the importance of modern protocol support for secure and efficient media streaming, I kindly request that Infuse add support for SMB 3.1.1 in a future update. While I understand that the performance benefits of newer SMB versions may not always be immediately evident, their role in maintaining compatibility and security standards is critical.
Thank you for your consideration and for creating such a fantastic media player. I look forward to your response and hope to see this improvement implemented soon.
Best regards,
Iresee
