and the compiled VideoLooperOS is from:

I don't see anything that specifically addresses playing videos from a network share on those sites. Under configuration, It does look like I can change the directory it pulls the videos from. So in theory, once the network share is mounted, I can point the script to that mount point.

I get this error:
and it doesn't mount the network share. I have no idea what that error means. Is there a chance SMB/Samba isn't enabled by default on this distro? The network share is accessible with these credentials from other devices.
The script to play videos is created by AdaFruit:I'm not familiar with that OS, but I imagine that the answer for question number 3 can be found in the website used for the maintainers of that OS, possibly even the same web site you downloaded it from.

I'm attempting to follow the directions in this thread:For question number 2, search the forums here for "drive auto mount" you'll find posts on how to do it.
