Device - MIBOX3
Kodi Version - Krypton
Android Version - 8.0.0
Issue - Unable to navigate to "root filesystem" option while adding source.

I have a 500 GB HDD hooked on to my android tv box. Before MIBOX 8.0 update, I was able to make use of kodi video sources on my HDD. Now when I'm trying to specify new video source, I'm unable to click on root filesystem option.

I am able to navigate to HDD using ES file Explorer.
Please help.

If you look under videos > files does the drive show up there?

Depending on how its set up and mounted, if it appears there you can just navigate to the top level of the folder tree that contains the media you want to use, and then set content via the context menu and it will be scraped into your library.
