1

I just bought myself a vero 4K.Can anyone point me at the right direction to find a guide how to connect my PC windows 10 to vero 4k.
I have spend four to five hours on this community but I can’t find any.
What I need is a step-by-step instructions how to make settings in windows and what programs i need to download.This was a bit too difficult for me with almost no computer skills. I would be really grateful if someone could help me.
I can always use it as a doorstop but it would be much nicer if it works.

Thanks for your reply
I looked at that post yesterday the problem for me is that I don’t even know where to start.I am a total beginner I don’t understand half of what they write. That’s why I need step by step instructions to do the settings in Windows. Thanks Magnus

Windows 10 can easily serve your files for you. It has a built-in DLNA server (which is an uncomplicated way to set up media shares). I found a pretty beginner-friendly guide here to set it up and add files which you want to be shared:

These files can then be accessed on your network without any complicated setup, just add the video source to Kodi/OSMC:

There are certain benefits to SMB/NFS but they are also a bit harder to setup and you probably won’t miss anything.

@sid6581’s advice is good. We didn’t want to go into the details of how to set up other machines - there are so many NASs out there and there should be plenty of sites telling you how to set up Windows shares.

Come back if you get stuck.
