Img ? sorry

Dreamcatcher2007 · March 23, 2016 at 1:33 PM

Hello all,

Sorry for the question, but i'm using only Raspberry pi's for Kodi and don't know how to put the files on a SD Card, is there a ready build img for Raspberry PI3 ?
Would be great, in the meantime i will search how to make it myself but due a lak of time will this take long over here

Thanks for you're reply in advance.

In the downloads section.
Extract with 7zip or similar to get the.img file, write with win32diskimager.

Open samba.conf and it's the second line that's not hashed out.

Edit: I'm assuming that's all you need but I've never needed to try it.

@Dreamcatcher:

To reach the samba shares, you don't need to change the workgroup. Open up a file browser and enter:

Code

\\ip.from.libreelec.here\

and you're done.

If you have multiple clients and changed the "systemname" to something individual (like TV-room, bedroom, bathroom ... etc.) you can reach the shares with

Code

\\bedroom\
or


\\bathroom\\

that's for windows....
Linux based systems reach the samba shares with: smb://whatever.ip.here/
same as for the hostname....: smb://bedroom/

It's surely not even possible to have 6 pi's without knowing that...?

you never know

Hahaha, i have tried serveal things sorry, also samba config file but no results at all, still workgroup, is mis something lol and sorry i'm not an Linux man to old to learn hahaha, no most of the time i use ready img's and when i want to learn something i read a lot but a simple thing like this.... i'm stuck haha, also the suggestion : \\ip.from.libreelec.here\ don't works, ok YES i have changed my IP to my own lol.

Thanks guys looking to solve it....

\\ip.to.libreelec.here\

should work. As it works for me very fine while NOT being in the same workgroup!!!

So maybe you entered a ":" before and that's the cause.

Again...while you are using windows you have to use this to access the samba share:

Code

\\ip.to.libreelec.here\

while you are using linux, this way:

Code

smb://ip.to.libreelec.here/

Note the difference between "/" and "\". That's important!!

Might be a silly question - but have you changed the workgroup in settings / services / SMB client?

Dreamcatcher2007 · April 7, 2016 at 12:05 PM

YES did not do anything, very..... anoing..

Grimson · April 7, 2016 at 2:27 PM

Make sure you saved the samba config file as "samba.conf" and not "samba.conf.sample" in the "configfiles" share. It then should be enough to deactivate and reactivate samba, but a complete reboot of the LE device can't hurt eighter.

Dreamcatcher2007 · April 7, 2016 at 5:20 PM

Oke.... found it, what a stuppid mistake, i used an older version from my config file, xbmc version, and here is the name in the Prismcube sat box smb.conf, and offcourse it should samba.conf
So problem solved..... sorry for this,

Thanks for the help...
