Help push a Windows file directly to a specified Android folder?

[shadowphile]

I am working on a Samsung Gear VR project that uses the Note 4. It involves rendering a panoramic image, and then I need to view it on the headset. The Oculus software looks in a specific external SC card folder and displays anything in that folder.

If you have played with Gear VR headset, you may already understand how horrible my process can be since taking the phone in and out to access the touch-screen to juggle a file-transfer process, then plug it back and and fire up and navigate the GEAR VR software can be tedious and taxing on both my patience and the phone/headset USB connector.

My goal: on Windows 7 drop an image straight into A SPECIFIC Android folder (even sweeter: render straight into the Android folder.) I prefer to avoid all the web-based solutions, just over local wifi.

I looked at AirDroid and others but I can't seem to nail down pushing directly to a specific folder (which is on the external SD card BTW.)
thanks

Check out "WebDAV Server"

Create the external sd card folder first via USB / MTP connection to a pc first if you can - otherwise try from your built-in file manager.

In KitKat, Apps can only write to public folders or ones they've created and own.

You can map a network drive to the webdav share for easier scripting.

Hey, thanks for the suggestion. I got everything installed and the server homed to the specific folder I created on the external SD card.
BitKinex finds the URL but it doesn't show anything. Any suggestions?
(I have version 5 Android on the Note 4)

Is the folder empty?

If not, try to just set the webdav server to home at the sd card, see if that helps.

I somehow got it to work and it turns out that latest versions of Android prevent easily writing to the external SD card, which is a widely-reported complaint. I can't seem to get the VR software to look at the internal card either, sigh.
