Mark LaBelle Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 For months now - since the upgrade to 2.9, announcements has never worked right - or in the case of my doorbell - AT ALL. I deleted the announcement agent and readded and started to build the myriad of announcements again (pain the arse). I went to add a simple doorbell sound to the announcement agent and low and behold I am now getting an error that it can't upload the simple wav or mp3 file from my desktop. See image for error. Something about an SM1B protocol for file sharing. Says I need SMB2. Crazy! Any idea what the heck happened to announcements? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark LaBelle Posted March 2, 2019 Author Share Posted March 2, 2019 Found the issue - seems you have to turn off and back on Windows Features>SMB1 and the reboot. It now allows me to upload. Wife is happy we have a doorbell again! She was sick of flashing the lights on and off. . Hey, it was a good workaround. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
