Aeon mq6

How do I get this skin to work. I have an raspberry3 with osmc running kodi 16.1. I ve tried installing from zip file but it won t work and i can’t find it on respiratory. Please help.

That is a question for Kodi as it is not OSMC specific. So you are more likely to get support on the Kodi forum. But as it seems that skin hasn’t been updated for quite some time and may not be compatible with Kodi Jarvis.

Hi Stefan

Try extracting the zip file on your computer. You will get a folder called skin.aeonmq6. then transfer that folder over to the addons directory in kodi.

The location is /home/osmc/.kodi/addons

Restart the pi. Hopefully mq6 should be installed

I tried that but cant find the folder. I put my sd-card from the pi into my computer. What am I doing wrong?

Plugging the SD card into PC will only show a part of the SD as the rest is Linux which windows can’t read.

You can copy the skin.aeonmq6 onto a USB stick. Plug into pi. If your using confluence skin look for file manager on settings home screen. You will be able to navigate file structure and copy move files. You might need to enable show hidden directories in settings if you don’t see the .kodi folder in file manager.

A much easier way is to install program called winscp for windows. Find IP address of rpi3 then enter that into winscp and connect. You can then transfer files between your PC and the pi much easier.

Hope that helps.

When I use winscp it won’t let me copy the files. I had a hard time finding the right directory (kodi was way deep in the directory) also but i think i got it right at the end, but got an error trying to move the files.

Then I tried via the file manager. I moved the files to profile/addon_data but it didn’t work.

addon_data is wrong folder.

If you go into file manager you should see OSMC. Click on that then go into .kodi folder then addons

Copy the skin.aeonmq6 into there.

Restart pi. Go into settings --> appearance --> change skin.

Aeon mq6 should be there.

Now i got it to work, I had to add the source in file manager first.
