Hi all,
I'm looking to share a couple of videos which I currently have hosted on a website; .mkv videos which I know to be playable on Kodi when on internal storage.
I was hoping to be able to add the website as a Videos source within Kodi, so that any videos contained within could be played, and I can update/change them for everyone by editing the website files.
Directory browsing is enabled on the website, however when I add it as a source I cannot see either the folders or the video files. Kodi allows me to add the source but when I open it from Videos > Files it is empty. I can browse to the videos through any web browser so it is not a permissions issue.
Should I be able to do this? If Kodi cannot do this by default, is there an add-on which will allow it?
If I'm not making sense I can add some screenshots!
Many thanks in advance,
