Android New xbmc build questions - nooby
#1
Hi all
First time post. I am new to this whole and would like to build an xbmc for my daughters.
I have come across an android unit with wifi and wondering if this would still allow me to transfer files wirelessly from my pc to the android unit.
From what I can see I would have to add a hdd to hold the media but can't see anywhere is the android unit acts the same as a windows pc unit.
I currently have a pc in one room and I transfer media to the pc with the tv via wifi
Can the android unit do that?
If not,
How could I achieve the same process while using xbmc. My aim is to move away from a full blown pc in the living room
Thanks in advance
Michael

XBMC can browse the windows SMB protocol (SMB).
so from XBMC android, you can access movies on
your windows machine wirelessly on your home network,,,

Assuming "wirelessly" works for you.
