Template:XBMC wiki toc As of XBMC v10 (Dharma), XBMC has SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol) (not to be confused with FTP) client support for media. It can be added like any other video source via the File manager view:

  1. Add Videos
  2. Browse
  3. Add network location
  4. Select SSH/SFTP from the protocol menu
  5. Complete other fields as required


SSH Source Example (source.xml):

    <video>
      <source>
        <name>Remote SSH Videos</name>
        <path>sftp://username:[email protected]/share/videos/</path>
      </source>
    </video>
