[RPi5] Which add-on for Samba?

  • Kinda. I mean a program/addon for Kodi/LebreElec that allows me to connect to a server like the internet archive and download media from there. Thanks for asking though! :thumbup::)

    Which type of file transfer do you mean? From your desktop PC to SBC?

    Anyway the reason im asking is cause i cant connect my SBC to my PC via Samba. Whenever i do that it bugs out

    I use a RPI5 (raspberry pi 5) with 1gb of RAM. Thanks

  • So you should change your thread title to “I have 2 questions” ha ha.

    Sorry, but every thread here is a question. Why not give more info in your thread title, you might get a faster answer.

    okay i was saying i cant use samba and that i need a add-on that lets me download movies off of a database so technically it is 1 question but thanks for telling me :thumbup: have a great day man

  • There are lots of simple ways to copy/paste (SMB or SFTP) or upload (File-Browser add-on) or copy from USB (Kodi file manager) to move content to the local /storage of an SBC board.

    I'm not aware of any add-ons that source media content from the Internet Archive (Games, but not media). If you are seeking other sources of free media, there's a load of non-pirate video add-ons for Kodi in the Kodi repo. If you're hinting towards the pirate kind then you are asking the wrong audience as that kind of discussion is not at all welcome in this forum.
