Hello ,

I am new, so sorry if this is in the wrong section or has been asked a zillion times.

I'll first tell you my set up and what I am trying to do.

I have Kodi on my Xbox One, and have downloaded the CinemaVision Laucher. 

I've browsed this site, decided to sub and downloaded some cool bumpers/trivia slides etc.

I am using a laptop to download and store on a thumb drive.

 

How do i go about getting these files on Cinema Vision, through Kodi on my xbox?   Can i plug the thumbdrive into the Xbox and access files that way?   Is there anything different that needs to be done?   

 

I plan on getting a dedicated HTPC,  but want to try this stuff out beforehand - seems pretty cool!

 

thanks in advance,

I don't have Kodi on an Xbox, but Kodi does have a File Manager under Settings where you can add network locations as well as local locations. You could place your files on a network share on a PC and then use Kodi's file manager to copy them to the Xbox.

Thanks for the help....still not sure how do to this though. 

 

I tried the network share.  Set my laptop to share.... added files into a shared folder.  Went to file manager and don't know how to extract them.   Nothing shows up when trying to browse

Further to this. 

 

I can get my files onto Kodi. Whether it be through Thumb drive or NFS (?)

 

Can play the videos 

 

I was able to link the content path in cinemavision to the nfs . However when I go into cinema vision to edit...i can't find the videos/slides etc.

Yes, you should be able to get your CinemaVision files into Kodi one way or the other. Whether it is USB depends on whether the Xbox supports that or not. Here is the Kodi Wiki page on the File Manager that may help.
