Which kodi addon?


Recommended Posts

Posted

It's been a while but I know there are 2 addons for emby but not sure which I want.  I would like to sync the playing of videos between the two environments.  I only have raspberry pi's to work with for kodi, emby client runs on smart TVs.  So which addon would I use and would I put it on all the kodi pis?   I have MySQL running on the NAS box that houses the emby server and the video files.

​​​​​​​Any advice here would be great.  Thanks!!

The good news is you have options, there are now 3 add-ons you can play with:

 

 - Emby for Kodi (https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/21888-emby-for-kodi/)

 - EmcyCon (https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/78547-embycon-faq/)

 - Kodi Media Import (https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/80916-kodi-mediaimport-project/)

 

Each add-on uses a different approach and will all act act slightly differently in different use cases. Have a play and find one that works for you.

The third one is under heavily develeopment and still has a few issues, but is promising to have a Kodi built in function. Feel free to try the nightlies and test builds but don't use it as "daily driver".

Would i install the chosen addon on all the Kodi-Pis I setup?
