My SAMBA server does not show up as a media system. I'd like it to show up as a media server so that I can access it from my TV and my PS4. It's running on a machine running Ubuntu. I can access the SAMBA server by looking up the IP on a Windows PC.

How do I make it so my SAMBA shows up as a MEDIA player?

Note: My workgroup is WORKGROUP

Samba is not a media server. It is a file server used mostly for Windows.

You need to install some real media server to be able to use it the way you want.
