Ah, I'll bet you missed a recent change to moOde. You now have to enable SMB in the System Config menu under the heading File Sharing. The setting is off by default.

I did spot that one Kent, believe me, I've tried every setting over the last few days!
The only way I've been able to repro the "Unable to mount location....' message has been to start with a fresh image of moOde 8.2.0 with the SMB service disabled. When I browse the network from my Linux Mint file manager I see an icon for the moOde player but clicking on it gives me this message.
Once I've enabled the SMB service, I can click on the icon to get to all the shares on the player. To open any of them I have to enter the user pi credentials as I said previously. Same is true if I open them on my Apple iPad using OWLfile app, for example.
For SMB sources, I have tried both single partition USB thumbdrives and two-partition uSD cards (with moOde image on them) in a USB adapter. All work just fine browsing, reading, and writing all the file systems available.
Incidentally, once I've gone through all this I find that if I disable the moOde player's SMB service again, clicking on the host icon in my Linux Mint File Manager no longer triggers the error message. I just get an empty view of shares on that host. Clearly there's some caching going on in Linux Mint or its File Manager.
