Add-ons

There are two Kodi add-ons that will let you integrate your Emby server with Kodi.

One of your options is to install the EmbyCon Kodi add-on, this add-on enables you to play back your media from your Emby server in Kodi. There are some installation and usage videos as well as tips and FAQs on the following page.

Another option is using the Emby for Kodi add-on, this add-on can also sync you media into to the local Kodi DB.

Installing

1. Download and install the add-ons project repository
2. From the repository install the add-on you want

There are also two main release streams:

Beta
Frequent releases but may be unstable, contains all the latest changes and fixes:
repository.beta.emby.kodi-(version).zip

Stable
Less frequent releases but should be more stable and prone to breaking changes:
repository.emby.kodi-(version).zip

Step One : Repository Installation

You have two install options for installing the project repository. Both will get you up and running, however option two can be done entirely inside Kodi so it best suited for situations where Kodi is installed on a device that you do not have access to download or copy files.

Option One - Direct download and install

With this approach you download the repo zip and install it directly.

• Download the Beta or Stable repository zip file to your local hard drive from above
• Save the downloaded repo zip file to somewhere Kodi can access it
• In Kodi navigate to Add-ons and select "Install from zip file"
• If prompted with a security warning about unknown add-ons select the settings button and then turn on "Unknown sources"
• Using the file selector select the repo zip you downloaded

Option Two - Side load from HTTPS source

This is the best and sometimes only option for standalone devices like the Amazon Fire TV Stick and the Nvidia Shield.

With this approach you need to add a HTTPS source that points to this address https://kodi.emby.tv and then use that source to install the repo.

First setup the HTTPS source

• In Kodi navigate to the File Manager and select "Add source"
• On the "Add file source" dialog select the "Browse" button then select "Add network location..."
• On the "Add network location" dialog enter the following:

• Leave everything else and hit the "Ok" button, then hit Cancel and close the dialogs and go back to the home screen
• In Kodi navigate to Add-ons and select "Install from zip file"
• If prompted with a security warning about unknown add-ons select the settings button and then turn on "Unknown sources"
• You should now see https://kodi.emby.tv:443/ as one of the sources available to install from, select it
• This will show you a list of the repo addons you can pick from, select one to install it

Step Two : Add-on Installation

Now you have the project repository installed you can install the add-on:

• Launch Kodi, open the settings and select Add-ons
• Scroll down and select "Install from repository"
• Scroll down and select "Kodi Emby Addons", this is the one you just installed in step one.
• Now select the add-on you want to install
