Hey everyone. I really need some help. I just purchased the 2nd gen FireTV Media player and I added a 64GB SDHC with a read/write speed of 90MB/s and Kodi 17.
I installed over 400 addons and I started to populate the Movies, TV Shows and Music sections of Kodi with media from website url sources that I added to the library. I have 6 websites I’m using and each one takes up over 2GBs of my internal memory. So, I quickly ran out of internal memory.
I want to be able to store my Kodi data to my SDHC card instead of the internal memory. I followed the instructions here, but now Kodi won’t work at all.

I wondered also if it would slow down Kodi by transferring the data from internal memory to external media.
My Kodi Internal Storage Data is here:
/storage/sdcard0/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi/
I created this folder on my SD Card and copied all of my data there:
/storage/sdcard1/kodi_data/
I made a file called xbmc_env.properties and put it in the folder /mnt/sdcard/. I created the file with ES FIle Explorer and saved the file as a Unix file. and inside the file I put:
xbmc.data=/storage/sdcard1/kodi_data/
So, I’m not sure what’s wrong but now Kodi won’t even load anymore. Thanks so much for all of your help and time!
