Hi Guys,

I'm struggling with setting up the photos synchronoziation to let it show up properly in Kodi.
I use the standard Estuary Skin and I see the content properly dipsplayed for movies, series' and music.

Unforutnately not for photos although I've chosen pictures to synch.
There I see only the media sources browser showing the following:
- emby-for-kodi-next-gen-addon-pictures
- emby-for-kodi-next-gen-addon-pictures-path-substitution

Chosing one of these doesn't show anything but a info-box containing "path not found or invalid"

I can see and play the pictures content within emby properly.


Can anyone give me a hint to properly configure this?

Please let me know if you need anything else from my side.

Thank you for your support.

Pictures cannot be synced to Kodi.

Kodi's picture viewer is basically a filebrowser.

When you sync a home video & photos library from Emby, it actually only syncs the videos, not the photos.

However, the pictures are still fully accessible via dynamic nodes -> Kodi config -> Addons -> picture addons -> "Emby for Kodi Next Gen (Picture)" -> Open ... browse the dynamic nodes.

If you don't see the "Emby for Kodi Next Gen (Picture)" under picture addons, you didn't install the plugin.image.emby-next-gen helper plugin.

Each of the dynamic node selection options can be embedded in a custom skin wherever you like.
