Evening,
New to CoreELEC after coming over from a Shield (which I have had all 3 revisions of) and never had a problem adding a seed box to the file manager before.
Started using XBMC back when it was only on the OG Xbox and you had to compile it from source then when this couldn’t handle the files I was playing moved to a NUC running OpenELEC until all the controversy then moved to LibreELEC. Again got to a point that I had files I wanted to play could not be handled by the hardware I moved to the Shield and have been using them every since.
Purchased a AM6b+ as this supports all the hardware that I have it connected to but having trouble adding this to the file manager for a media source. I have never had a problem adding it to Windows, Android or Fire devices.
They have a guide on the website on what to enter but all I get is the spinning wheel for about 20 seconds and then an empty directory.
Protocol: FTP Server
Server address: {servername}
Remote Path: |auth=TLS
Port: 21
Username: {username}
Password: {password}
If anyone could help it would be much appreciated or even a guide for me to follow.
Then a can finally retire the Fire device and replace it with the Shield.
Try with |auth=TLS&verifypeer=false or with |auth=SSL/TLS.
Also check the sources.xml file and check if there is correctly written.
Have just tried both and still the same as I put in my original message.
I did come across one of your other posts from a few years ago when someone else was having trouble with FTP and you said about adding the “&verifypeer=false” to the entry which I had already tried but did again as you asked by coping and pasting them into both sources & passwords.xml and then restarting Kodi.
If you send me account details in PM I can test myself. If this is not possible you already got some more information 
Also check kodi.log because there you will see what error you get.
Just got an error message saying that I cant send you a PM?
Try again. Will check tomorrow.
I have just wiped the install from the emmc and done a complete fresh install and the only thing I did was add the FTP for the seedbox and am still getting the same.
I have copied across the log file zip and had a look and cant see anything about an error.
You need Kodi DEBUG log and look for ftp.
Just pulled this from the .kodi folder
As I wrote you need to enable DEBUG mode for Kodi log. After enabling restart kodi, do your thing with ftp and post log. File must containt lot of debug lines.

OK I have now done that and here is the log
kodi.log (110.7 KB)
Seems good to me.
Curl::Debug - HEADER_IN: 230 Login successful.
HEADER_IN: 257 "/" is the current directory
HEADER_IN: 227 Entering Passive Mode (169,150,223,227,38,75).
As I wrote above: if you send me login details in PM I can check myself. If not then I can’t help much anymore.
