Accessing /.kodi/addons folder with samba?

  • I wonder if there's any changes I can make so that I can access this /.kodi/addons folder with samba? Currently I can access the userdata folder and my usb drive. I have one addon that I frequently have to manually edit files in (beta testing etc).

  • Add new samba share like this

    Code
    [kodi_addons]
    path = /storage/.kodi/addons
    available = yes
    browsable = yes
    public = yes
    writable = yes

    or even for whole .kodi folder

    Code
    [kodi]
    path = /storage/.kodi
    available = yes
    browsable = yes
    public = yes
    writable = yes
