I am a new Kodi user, and I just installed it on both my PC and my Firestick. I have successfully linked the two using UPnP/DLNA - the Kodi desktop shows up on the Kodi app on the Firestick. I was not asked to set up or enter any passwords, so I am assuming the link is actually working.
At the moment, all I want to do is run a picture slideshow. I have loaded the appropriate library on the PC app and all images are shown on the carousel within that. However, when I go to the Pictures tab on the Firestick, I do not see the folder on the PC (called lib6, for what it's worth), but just Video Library and Music library. I have not defined these, so I assume they're part of the Kodi installation. They are apparently empty anyway.
I expected to see "Pictures library" or something similar. Should I?
Could someone point me to a definitive link that explains what I'm missing? I HAVE searched, but the only relevant thread doesn't have an answer woven in with the usual forum-style "banter" anyone who dares to have a problem usually encounters.
At this stage, I am not considering any sort of error, and freely admit without anyone having to point it out to me that I might be doing something wrong, or that I'm an idiot, a buffoon, and so on.
TIA
