Hey guys.....

So call me daft but I really can't seem to find any help on the web as to how to add the .xml file to my Pi.

When I initially got my Pi last year there were a few sites giving you the commands on how to add or edit these on the Pi via Putty.
I can't seem to find any of these sites now so need help please.

I have my Pi setup. I have Putty & MYSQL installed on my main pc. I've added the advancedsettings.xml to my HTPC.
Now I need to add the advancedsettings.xml to my Pi so that it can sync with my HTPC.

I just need the commands or instructions as to how to add this file.

Thanx guys

What distribution are you running on your Pi? Is it OpenELEC? Rasbmc? Xbian?

If it's OpenELEC, connect to you Pi using Windows File (NOT Internet) Explorer, type \\ followed by the IP address of your Pi in the address bar (eg. \\192.168.0.8) and then browse to the Userdata folder. In the Userdata folder, create (or paste in) your advancedsettings.xml file.

As for Putty, start a new session, enter the IP address of you Pi, select SSH as connection type (port 22) and click Open. Username on OpenELEC is "root", password is "openelec". Cd to "/storage/.xbmc/userdata", and use standard Unix/Linux commands to create the file.
