How do I access special://skin/extras/backgrounds/ ?
#1
Total newb here (Linux/xbmcbuntu that is) and I am trying to add a different background while using the Xperience More skin, but when I go to navigate to a (higher) directory I can't get out of special:// directory, and I can't find the "special://" directory while sftp'd in via Filezilla. Can someone explain? btw I searched for 20 mins here on the forum & google and couldn't find any clues. TIA

This would be the appropriate directory:
Code:
/home/USERNAME/.xbmc/addons/skin.xperience-more
USERNAME is the username you created for your OS. (i.e. xbmc)

like explained above. The only difference from this ancient thread is, that it's not ".xmbc" anymore. Wink

So please search for the folder in:

~/.kodi/addons/skin.<inser-the-skin.name-here>

All skins are in their seperate subfolder matching to: skin.<skin-name>.

For estuary the folder is named: skin.estuary

Hope that will help
