One of the most convenient functions of XBMC is its ability to stream media from any networked PC (personal-computer). In this section, we look at some of the methods for configuring remote computers or storage devices to provide file access to XBMC. To learn how to access these remote shares in XBMC, please look at XBMC Media Sources.
