Greetings Kodi fans,
(I am aware that there might be some threads around this, I'm just looking for pointers, links or a Google search phrase, maybe my Google search phrases are along the incorrect searches. I appreciate your time.)
What I'm looking for is a means to access the Lubuntu interface via VNC while Kodi is playing on the TV simultaneously. Maybe its from a new X session, maybe a new terminal?
So the use case is:
1. My daughter is watching something on Kodi (TV).
2. I need to move and rename a whole bunch of Movies, I opt for Lubuntu.
3. How do I VNC into Lubuntu without having to disturb everyone else.
My issue with renaming and moving items via the default shares is that all the moving and editing runs over the network making the Sata3 speeds useless. So I would like to login to the GUI and do it there quickly....amongst other minor reasons.
If I can stick to x11vnc the better.
Many Thanks!
I use:
Kodibuntu 14
x11vnc
Windoze & MobaXterm to access the Kodi server via VNC or ssh.
Id say I'm roughly a medium skilled Linuxer, a better Kodi/XBMC fan!
