FTP Client - guillaumesoucy - 17th Sep, 2015 04:32 AM
Hi,
This is possible to stream media from my FTP server with Xbian installed on a Raspberry Pi 2?
Thanks,
Guillaume

Connect to your FTP server as a source in Kodi

You mean Xbian work exactly like Kodi?
RE: FTP Client - f1vefour - 18th Sep, 2015 04:56 PM
Do you have a separate FTP server that you want to connect to and play files on XBian?

Yes correct, I have a FTP server runing on a FreeNAS machine in a rack.

Then you only need to add your FTP server as a source in Kodi.

Great! I already do this with Kodi on my Linux computers, I thought it was different for Xbian.
Also, how about Google Drive plugin, its the same thing on Xbian? Will Xbian support plugins like Kodi does?

Sure, most all Kodi plugins will work done.

Also, can I use a mouse and a key board attached to the Raspberry Pi 2 for control Xbian?
RE: FTP Client - f1vefour - 20th Sep, 2015 06:05 AM
Yep, keyboard and mouse work fine.

Ah I forgot to ask, how I can add a plugin to Xbian, the Google Drive plugin by example came in a .zip file, how I can download the file with Xbian without a web broswer. There was a command I need to use?
RE: FTP Client - f1vefour - 22nd Sep, 2015 08:07 AM
Find the URL for the zip file and ssh into XBian then use wget
Code:
wget http://someplace.com/somefile.zip
