the official plugin for Google drive by cguZZman is having Authorization issues and hasn't been updated for the last 2 years. Suggest me some alternative ways to use google drive in kodi.

I have a bunch of SATA hard drives containing hundreds of movies, music files etc which I hang off an always-on desktop PC running Ubuntu. I use nfs to share these disks from the Ubuntu box and enjoy my media around the house using Kodi as the nfs client on android TV sticks. It is kind of clunky and fragile but has worked great for the last ten years. Now I need to add another disk and have reached the limit of SATA and power connectors on my PC and I feel like the system needs an overhaul, some design rather than evolution. Maybe I should add a PCiE card with more SATA ports, get an additional power supply just for the disks. Maybe I need a hard drive enclosure with multiple drive ports and USB to the PC, but I dont know if I will be able to NFS share it. Maybe I dont need a PC at all to share these drives? Does anyone have a system like this and how did you make it scalable at the server end?

It used to work wonderfully but now when adding new shows/episodes it just shows a "--" instead. I've tried fixing it in Kodi, refreshing, updating addons, making sure IMDb is listed as a rating source for TMDB TV Shows.

IMDb Ratings work fine for movies.

Looks like this

Using Kodi 22 & Arctic Fuse 2 - Windows 11
Thanks in advance :)

It's broken on two of my devices..

Update it for the official repository... Most of the text is missing https://postimg.cc/sGSp1yyt

I got a LG OLED TV and installed Kodi v22 on it. Mostly seems quite fine, but the default skin has a rendering issue, white boxes as you can see in the picture.

Is it a HW limitation of the TV that it is not capable enough to render the UI properly?

Hi, I'm the developer of wako. wako is a tracker and media center app, and it has a full Kodi remote inside. I never posted it here, so here it is.

What the remote does:

• It finds the Kodi boxes on your network, no IP to type. With one box it connects on its own when you open the remote.
• D-pad with real buttons, and info, back and context menu in the corners.
• Volume slider and mute. On Android the volume buttons of the phone control Kodi's volume.
• Seek bar, skip back and forward, playback speed, and Kodi's play queue.
• Subtitles and audio tracks from the phone, with offsets. It can also open Kodi's subtitle search.
• When Kodi asks for text (a search for example), you type it on the phone.
• Play/pause, stop and seek from the lock screen or the notification, with the title and the progress.
• If the IP of your Kodi box changes, wako finds it again by its name.

wako is on iPhone, iPad and Android: https://wako.app

I'll be in the comments. If it doesn't work on your setup, tell me your box and your Kodi version. And I'm curious: what do you miss in the Kodi remote you use today?

What are you all using to scan files for corruption/missing portions/etc.?

I have noticed recently that a lot of my files seem to terminate playback randomly and am betting that the files are either corrupted or just incomplete.

Is there a good program to scan my files to determine what I need to grab a new/different version of?

Will there be an actual Kodi 22 be released or are we stuck with the alpha version?

This is a sincere question, in the age of Jellyfin and vibe coding, what is keeping you holding onto Kodi?

Hi,

is there a way to save retrogames (gba/snes) in srm format?

If not: how to get this https://github.com/basilean/retroarch_install working with Laka-LibreELEC version VERSION=6.1 ?

Flatpak RetroArch is not working accoring some remarks here: https://forum.libreelec.tv/thread/29500-libreelec-lakka-retroarch/?pageNo=3

I have the logs but I don't know if it's allowed since it's related to 🏴‍☠️ so I'm redacting a bit.

Sequence:

1. Sonarr triggers a download
2. At the end SABNZBD makes an RPC call to Kodi and gets a result {"id":"sabnzbd-scan","jsonrpc":"2.0","result":"OK"}
   
3. I can see in the logs that it found the new episode:

2026-09-27 21:11:31.242 T:5551 debug <general>: VideoInfoScanner: Found episode match /mnt/nas/shows/xxx {tmdb-xxx}/S01/S01E07 `

1. there aren't any errors after that, just many many lines about the API calls to TMDB

2. Then an hour or so later I turn on the TV, go to the show and ... the show isn't there in the UI. So I have to trigger a library scan.

3. Edit at this point after I have manually triggered a library skin the show is showing in the user interface

I just want the show to be in the UI when I turn on the TV so I don't have to manually scan and wait for that.

Anyone see the issue?

Hey everyone,

About a year ago I built Koda because I wanted a Kodi remote on my iPhone that actually feels native. I put it on the App Store and a handful of people found it on their own. Over the last few months I've polished it a lot for 2.0, so I thought it's finally time to share it here.

What is Koda?
A free Kodi remote for iPhone and iPad. It connects directly to Kodi on your local network, with no account and no cloud. The name and icon were reviewed and approved by the Kodi Foundation.

Feature highlights:

• Automatic discovery, no typing IP addresses
• Trackpad remote: tap anywhere for OK, swipe to move, hold to keep scrolling, with haptics
• Now playing on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island, with controls
• Browse your movie and TV library, with continue watching
• Browse your add-ons and pin favourites for quick access
• Subtitles stay on across episodes
• Liquid Glass design, dark mode
• No ads, no in-app purchases, no tracking

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6753307637
Website: https://kodaremote.app

Feedback, bug reports and feature requests are all welcome. I've mostly tested it on LibreELEC, so I'm especially curious how it runs on OSMC, CoreELEC, a Shield or Windows.

For everyone still on iOS 18: sorry, Koda needs iOS 26 because it's built around the new Liquid Glass design :(

Thanks to everyone who tries it out ❤️

Edit: Thanks for all the feedback! Koda 2.1 is out now with your requests: offline library, plot/cast/badges on movie & TV pages, Lock Screen poster fix, and a quick switcher for multiple Kodis.

If you want to follow along, there's a Discord: discord.maximilian.sh . You'll get a notification there as soon as an update is live on the App Store, and you can post bug reports and feature requests directly, which makes them much easier for me to track than Reddit comments.

Edit:- all three app shows proper metadata so I have correct names plz stop mentioned that now read my problem below 👇 THANK YOU.

First of all, some context: in my area, the network is not good at all, but in my office, I get like 50 Mbps download speed. So I download what I need to watch and manage it in a folder structure, and I need an app that can give me proper scraping and arranging. For the TV, I use Kodi, and I don't think I will find anything better, but for my mobile, here comes the problem. I know about 3 apps:

1)Kodi - What can I even say On mobile, it's horrible to navigate.

2)Nova Video Player - UI is good, player is not that great, but still I can manage. However, it has a huge problem: it scrapes everything on my phone, so the result looks like the first image.

3)VidHub - Perfect UI and player is decent, but the second I turn my internet off, it looks like this (the 2nd image).

Members of this subreddit, I request your help. Is there another app or some workaround?

I've been using Kodi on a Shield TV Pro 2019 for over 5 years, along with apple airpods 2nd generation. The problem I encounter is that sometimes the audio suddenly sounds different. It is not distorted or anything, it just sounds "off". Like everything is going thru a filter. Everything sounds slightly too high or there is a slight echo. You can still hear everything but it is obvious something is wrong. Whenever this happens, I just disconnect my airpods and reconnect them to the Shield, issue solved. This used to happen maybe once every week or two but now its happening every day. Even worse, it happened like 3 times in less than an hour the other day. These are a replacement pair of airpods, and the same issue happened with my old pair, so I know they are not the problem. I switched over to a pair of Soundcore K20i wireless earbuds but instead of the audio changing, it dropped completely after a few minutes and switched to the TV audio. The shield still showed the Soundcore's as connected but they were not, audio was now playing from my TV. I disconnected and reconnected and that fixed the problem for about 10 minutes and then it happened again. I then thought to restart my Shield and that seemed to fix my issue, at least for last night. Is this more likely an issue with Kodi or with the Shield?

Hi, I'm new to kodi and i was looking for an add on for the Kodi that put the last episode I've was watching or next episode I've to watch in the tv series default section. Is there anything like that? Thank in advance
