If you want to play on VLC network Drives. You need to install Samba like Stevecook said. But you also need install some extra packages.

1.Install GVFS-Fuse. Restart Host and client PC. Restart Samba server will probably do this but forgot the command

If you still have issue playing on vlc then

  1. Install vlc-plugin-samba. Then in VLC Preferences Show settings all, Input/Codecs - Access Modules - SMB (You need to enter the credentials. For me the credentials are of the Host PC).

Then restart both host and client PC and should work.
