VU+/media/hdd/.xbmc folder for newbies Test by Below
This is just a test with only a handful of addons to see if it can be shared this way but should be useful to anyone that has not used xbmc on vu before or got stuck trying to get it working. You will need a proper ftp client like Filezilla for transferring the folder which can be found here.
Code:
https://filezilla-project.org/download.php?type=client
How to use
1. Download the attached file then extract it to your desktop.
2. Make sure in your image your HDD is mounted as /media/hdd then ftp to that location & look for a folder named .xbmc if you can not see it then enable this option in filezilla.
You can delete the .xbmc folder but just in case this doesn't work i suggest just renaming it so it can easily be restored, if you do not have a .xbmc folder then it could be you have not yet run xbmc on your vu+ or that it has installed to the root of your image because the hdd was not mounted when first run. If you do have it in the root of your image delete it as it will fill all available flash in next to no time.
3. You can now proceed to transfer the folder to your hdd, simply drag the extracted media folder to the root of your image as shown below.
Once this is complete restart your vu then launch xbmc.
