searching for the Plugin Folder

perlian · August 1, 2016 at 2:35 PM

Hello,

i formerly used Raspbmc und after that OSMC

now "today" i switched to Libreelec on RPI2

In the past i used the "N24" addon to watch the documentaries on N24

Since it was not longer included in the official sources I copied the addon manually to the plugin folder and it works great

But now in Libreelec i cant find any plugin folder

What can i do ?

Stick the zip file somewhere you can access from the Pi and install from zip?
The addons folder is at / storage/.kodi/addons.

very needful hint........ but i cant reach this folder

Samba access dont show it and a tool like mc isnt available or installable on libreelec

any other way ?

You can use winscp to see it.
Or add the .kodi folder as a source in /storage/.config/samba.conf (which shows as 'configfiles' over samba) then access it via smb.
Why not just install the zip from the kodi gui though?

If it's the folder you're sticking in the addons folder you should be able to zip it (eg with 7zip) and install as normal.
