pogo plug with xbmc
#1
I recently bought a pogoplug and I am trying to hook up my hard drive to it so that i can access all of my media on it through xbmc on my ATV2? What steps should I do to make that happen?

- Mount the HDD on the pogoplug
- Setup NFS sharing on the pogoplug
- Share the HDD via NFS
- Add NFS share as media source in XBMC

Google came up with this:

Out of the box, Pogo should do UPnP, but as I mentioned before, default pogo software isn't really good and their UPnP particularly server stinks.

In addition to RudolfR's link, I found http://aaronrandall.com/blog/customising-your-pogoplug/ which looks pretty good and has a number of walk through for setting up file sharing and more. NFS or SMB would be the ones to go with (NFS if you can, as it is a more efficient protocol for the ATV2).

The http://archlinuxarm.org site is also really great and has lots of info. http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv5/...2-pinkgray
