okay.. then you dont have the same "problem" I did ;) got a little hint for you thow.. if it's because your symlinks you might want to consider using mount --bind instead. ex. mount --bind /mnt/smb/my/directory /usr/local/freevo/movies/my_directory that might solve your problem. I use --bind and I dont get the same problem you do.
