How to create a share of Kodi folder on 8.0.1 for accessing from win 10 client?

  • I have the Aeon MQ 7 skin installed on the Kodi 17.1. I want to modify/add some backgrounds to the master and other profiles. I need a share for the kodi folder to access the skin from a windows 10 laptop.

    I have enabled the Samba and was able to access some default shares along with the external drives. But these shares does not contain kodi folder.

    I am a windows person and have negligible knowledge of linux. I need some pointers in creating the shares with full read/write/delete permissions for kodi folder and also for other folders on the android partition.

    Any help in this regard is appreciated. Thanks.

  • Via smb, go to the configfiles folder and find samba.conf.sample
    Rename it to samba.conf and edit to create a share for /storage/.kodi
    Reboot

    Thanks for the tip. I have modified the samba.conf file to have one share which is /storage and deleted all the other shares. With this one share I can access all the other removed share folders and remaining folders. :)
