    Found this

    setting up share in windows 7:


    Select folder/drive which you'd like to share in your network, then:
    right mouse click > properties > sharing > share > select "everyone" > add > Permission level: Read/Write > share > done
    and your folder is already shared
    (if your folder is in \User\PC_name(admin)- e.g.: Desktop, My documents, My Videos etc., you need to go to [Advanced sharing] and select tick-box "share this folder")

    adding CIFS share in vu solo2:

    blue > blue > network browse and mountpoints > lan connection > select your PC > press green button (mounts management) > add new network mount point
    and settings should be as follow:

    Active: Enable
    Local share name: movies //name of your share as it will appear in your vu
    Mount type: CIFS share
    Server IP: 192.168.0.22 //your PC IP address
    Server share: cinema //share name from your PC
    Use as HDD replacement: no
    Mount options: rw
    Username: admin //your_PC_name/PC_username
    Password: ... //your password if you have any

    then press ok and your PC files can be accessed using ftp client or movie player
