HTML5 tags that have the following CSS 3.0 properties:
`width: auto; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;`
Usage
-----
Simply place any valid Wikitext you wish to appear centered as the contents of the (only) unnamed parameter, as in...
**`{{Center|Elements (text, images, etc.) to be centered here}}`**
...which is rendered by the parser as:
Elements (text, images, etc.) to be centered here
### Additional CSS properties
This template does have one named parameter, **`style`**, which can be used to pass additional CSS properties to the wrapping
tags. The properties should be well-formed CSS 3.0, with colon-delimited property names and all values terminated with a semicolon. As an example, if it was desired to have the template's output be double-spaced below the preceding text and in a larger, bold font, it would look like...
**`{{Center|style=margin-top: 2em; font-size: larger; font-weight: bold;|Elements (text, images, etc.) to be centered here}}`**
...which is rendered as:
Elements (text, images, etc.) to be centered here
### Bare HTML tags
To do this without a template, simply use the following HTML code, replacing the '...' with any standard Wikitext you want to appear centered on the page (multiple lines are acceptable, too):

_
Various websites, youtube videos, and blogs have talked about and suggested installing various add-on or installation "wizards" or add-on installers. This is not a good idea, and doing so can cause more issues than it fixes. These tool likely started with good intentions, but many of the configurations it sets or changes _will break or crash certain Kodi/XBMC setups_.
Installing this so called 'wizard' may overwrite many configuration files _without having an option to restore them_.

Install Sideload Launcher (optional)
------------------------------------
Because Google will currently not display side-loaded apps in its default "Leanback Launcher" you can use this "Sideload Launcher" app by Chainfire to more easily launch apps that have not been approved by Google or does otherwise not meet the declaration requirements needed for showing up on the default "Leanback Launcher" (on the [Android TV](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_TV "wikipedia:Android TV")
homescreen) for [Android TV](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_TV "wikipedia:Android TV")
.
* 1\. Install "Sideload Launcher" app by Chainfire from Google Play store [http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.tv.sideloadlauncher](http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.tv.sideloadlauncher)
* 2\. Reboot your Nexus Player by unplugging (as it does not have a software reboot) or by entering `adb reboot` from command line / terminal.
* 3\. Start the "Sideload Launcher" app and use it to launch Kodi or other third-party apps that you have side-load installed.

Random notes
------------
_Feel free to place various notes, tips, and links here. As this section of the wiki gets more organized, those notes will be properly sorted. Consider this like a dumping ground for when you're not sure where to put something._
* Not a issue for Kodi, but keep in mind that unlike almost all Android media players out there, the Nexus Player features a x86-64 (64-bit Intel Atom CPU) chipset instead of a ARM based SoC/CPU, and this means that some other Android apps and games that work on other Android media players may not work on the Nexus Player because of this reason.
* CEC support not confirmed but assumed as it is suppose to be prerequisite for [Android TV](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_TV "wikipedia:Android TV")
?
* HDMI 1.4b video/audio output with HDCP 1.4. Resolution: 720p and 1080p up to 60fps?
* Weight 235 gram
* As noted in Install section, v5.0 build LRX21M and LRX21V don't seem to have ADB debugging options (i.e. for connecting to device over a network). Also, Sideload Launcher may not be needed as sideloaded Kodi (v14 beta 3) shows up under Apps on Nexus Player's main screen.
* The hardware remote for the Nexus Player is rather limited in functionality. While it will work for the majority of navigation needs, it is recommended to install a [full feature software remote app](https://play.google.com/store/search?q=kodi%20xbmc%20remote&c=apps&hl=en)
for your phone or tablet such as [KORE - Kodi Remote](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.xbmc.kore)
or [Yatse, the Kodi Remote](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.leetzone.android.yatsewidgetfree&hl=en)
found at the Google Play Store for Android. These software remotes will give access to the menus of Kodi, otherwise not available through the Nexus Player hardware remote.

This tutorial will show how to replace _runtime_ with **time remaining** at the end of the progress bar on the _Info screen_ I and _OSD_ M, and add the _runtime_ to the bottom of the progress bar on the _Info screen/OSD_. It'll also show how to modify the seekbar (PAUSE dialog) to show time remaining.
This is achieved by editing VideoFullScreen.xml and DialogSeekBar.xml. They are located in the system data folder.

A. Open the file VideoFullScreen.xml\], find the following line and comment it out. It will remove _end time_ below the progress bar on the _Info screen_.
$LOCALIZE\[31049\] $INFO\[Player.FinishTime\]
B. Add this after the above line. On the _Info screen_ it will add _runtime_ at the bottom of the progress bar and move _end time_ into brackets.
Runtime: $INFO\[Player.Duration(hh:mm:ss)\] (Ends $INFO\[Player.FinishTime\])
C. Find the following line and comment it out. It will remove _runtime_ from the end of the progress bar.
$INFO\[Player.Duration(hh:mm:ss)\]
D. Add this after the above line. It will add _time remaining_ to the end of the progress bar. The hyphen (‐) before $INFO just shows up as is in Kodi GUI, you don't need it.
-$INFO\[Player.TimeRemaining(hh:mm:ss)\]

B. Change the color of "Runtime X (Ends Y)" to white by commenting out the following:
grey
C. If you _don't_ make _runtime_ visible on the _OSD_ too (if you do both the NEXT button and "Runtime" will overlap), you could also make the font size as e.g. time remaining.
Change **font12** to **font13**
D. Or you can do C and move the text a bit to the right. From the code section in A change

B. Comment out the following line:
$INFO\[Player.Time\] - $INFO\[Player.Duration\]
C. Add the following line after it, this replaces _runtime_ with _time remaining_.
$INFO\[Player.Time\] | $INFO\[Player.TimeRemaining(hh:mm:ss)\] left
You don't have to use **|** (vertical bar) or "left", though using "remaining" instead of "left" won't fit. But you can always make the seekbar longer. Other examples from the forums are:
MOD 2
at $INFO\[Player.Time\], $INFO\[Player.TimeRemaining(hh:mm:ss)\] left
MOD 3
$INFO\[Player.Time\] (-$INFO\[Player.TimeRemaining(hh:mm:ss)\])

**. |
This article lists GSoC Qualification Tasks as well other smaller development tasks that are not GSoC specific. Please note that this page was last updated in 2009. Some tasks on this page may have been completed by the XBMC-Team or other individuals.
Contents

Google Summer of Code Qualification Tasks
=========================================
Please add a note here if you choose to work on a qualification task to avoid duplicate work.
Many students will probably apply for the Google Summer of Code and wish to work on a sexy multimedia project such as XBMC. All students will probably also claim to be hard workers, but we need a real method of determining which students have a higher probability for success. Thus, we will use this qualification system (adopted from FFmpeg SoC 2007 season). A student must successfully first complete a qualification task in order to be considered for an XBMC SoC project. In doing so, a student demonstrates that they:
* Are willing to commit some time during the Summer of Code application review period in order to prove that they can code C++ satisfactorily in a clean, well-documented style.
* Can effectively navigate the XBMC codebase.
* Can communicate well with the XBMC development-team and community via the forum and IRC.
* Can accept feedback and revise code after review until it is suitable for inclusion in the main XBMC codebase.
**TIP!** Do not be shy, speak your mind, and get involved with the public community, post in the public forum for feedback!
**Frequent Objection #1:** "_But I don't have time to do a qualification task!_" Then how do we know you will have time to work on your task during the summer? The qualification tasks are selected to be fairly trivial by XBMC standards and should not be too difficult for a prospective XBMC contributor. If they are too difficult, maybe XBMC is not the project for you.
**NOTE!** Be encouraged by the fact that the application review period comes after the application submission deadline; i.e., you can work on a qualification task after you submit an application to XBMC [through Google](http://groups.google.com/group/google-summer-of-code-announce/web/guide-to-the-gsoc-web-app-for-student-applicants)
. But you will not be considered for an GSoC project slot unless you have satisfactorily completed a qualification task.
**Process:** If you are truly interested in applying for XBMC's Summer of Code and, by extension, interested in working on a qualification task, the first step is to register a XBMC Community Forum Account, a SourceForge.NET Account and a XBMC Wiki Account, and then publicly indicate that your interest and which project you plan to work on.
#### Platform independent
**Note!** If you have an idea for a other simple task for qualification, come and discuss it on the public development section of the XBMC Community Forums and our developers might approve it.
* [Position slider in OSD for movie/music playback mouse control (drag and drop style)](http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?t=43919)
, allow mouse (and touchscreen) input for the on-screen-display slider seekbar.
* Implement a slow-cache system for the infomanager for those items that do not need to be retrieved more than about once a second, such as the proposed "Library.HasContent()" stuff which hits the db.
* Add support to [read/parse//import OPML (RSS feed 'playlist' files) as "Podcasts Channels"](http://trac.kodi.tv/ticket/5669)
to XBMC's existing simple RSS reader that supports parsing text, video and pictures, (supporting multiple RSS feeds), and displaying this in the GUI. This should be simple enough, like the RSS readers on mobile devices, but suited for a TV display.
* Rewrite the thumbnail caching system so that it can store multiple resolution thumbs.
* Essentially the "CacheThumb" routine should cache the thumb, cache information about the thumb (info on date, source, aspectratio, packed as small as feasible) and store both full size and scaled versions of the thumbs. The meta info would be stored in a separate file for fast assigning of thumbs (this could be kept in memory based on the thumb hash in a lookup table, and the ListItem.Thumb infoimage could be extended to specify what size of thumb it needs (to limit memory usage for xbox/lowmem devices).
* Rewrite XBMC's existing picture slideshow engine to be more like a normal player (see [VideoPlayer](https://kodi.wiki/view/VideoPlayer "VideoPlayer")
, PAPlayer, and MODPlayer as examples).
* Utilize GUILargeImage to handle the loading, and the animation engine for the effects (pan/zoom/rotate, etc.).
* Port one of the existing [visualizations](http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?t=137)
or [screensavers](http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?t=7552)
available in XBMC for Xbox from Direct3D (DirectX D3D) to OpenGL, (perhaps even doing so in a unified way that they can be compiled with the existing Direct3D/DirectX version too so that the same binary vis/xscr library will support both Direct3D/DirectX and OpenGL).
* FFmpeg wrapper for [Libnemesi (the RTSP/RTP client library)](http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?t=21926)
to use inside XBMC's in-house video-player (DVDPlayer)
* \-- I'm willing to try this out, see [patch #4186 on trac](http://trac.kodi.tv/ticket/4186)
- **Alcoheca' - 27/2/2008**
* FFmpeg wrapper for [Libnemesi (the RTSP/RTP client library)](http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?t=21926)
to use inside XBMC's in-house audio-player (PAPlayer)
* **Legacy Tasks** - There is a growing back-log of 'interesting patches' and 'bug-reports' for XBMC on our patch-tracker and our bug-tracker which are both hosted on the XBMC SourceForge.net project site. Many of the patches have been abandoned by the original submitter, thus now requires volunteers to take the initiative to clean up each patch to the satisfaction of the project leaders and resubmit it for new review, so that it can be approved for SVN inclusion. As for the bugs, please try to fix enough bugs to show of your skill. See:
* XBMC bug and patch-tracker: [http://trac.kodi.tv/](http://trac.kodi.tv/)
* XBMC Media Center audio/video playback is very dependent on [FFmpeg](http://ffmpeg.org/)
, (the open source codec and audio/video handling library), so any improvements/enhancements or new features/functions made to [FFmpeg](http://ffmpeg.org/)
source code will also be of benefit to XBMC Media Center. We at XBMC will therefor also accept [performing a qualification task for the FFmpeg project](http://wiki.multimedia.cx/index.php?title=Small_FFmpeg_Tasks)
as a XBMC qualification task, see [here](http://wiki.multimedia.cx/index.php?title=Small_FFmpeg_Tasks)
.

|  | There are two userdata folders, the system one contains default settings necessary for Kodi to operate, and the userdata folder for user modifications. Do not touch the files in the first system-userdata folder. Most references on the wiki are about editing the second, user-accessible, **[userdata](https://kodi.wiki/view/Userdata "Userdata")
** folder. This page is for reference only!! |
The **system data** folder is where files needed to operate are stored. This includes the executable files, system data files and default addons/settings.
In most/all cases - it is recommended that system files remain as is and User profile [Userdata](https://kodi.wiki/view/Userdata "Userdata")
files are modified instead.
Location of the system userdata folder
--------------------------------------
**Note:** In older versions of the software (before v14) the `**kodi**` directories were named `**xbmc**`.

# Colour themes - Official Kodi Wiki
Colour themes
=============
From Official Kodi Wiki
[Jump to navigation](https://kodi.wiki/view/Colour_themes#mw-head)
[Jump to search](https://kodi.wiki/view/Colour_themes#searchInput)
The XML files contained in the colors/ folder contain the different colour themes for the skin. This allows you the skinner to define the colours that you'll use for text and images once in terms of English names (rather than hex codes) and potentially allows you to have different colour themes.
Each additional colour theme has a single XML file, where the filename should be the same as the name of the colour theme (e.g. orange.xml). The default colours should be placed in defaults.xml - this is a fallback file that is used when the user hasn't requested another colour theme, or when their selected colour theme doesn't contain a particular colour assignment.
The layout is as follows (note that the hex code is in ARGB format):
ffffffff
7fffffff
ff00ff7f
You can then use white within the main skin files to refer to which colour you want. This allows you to easily change all the colouring in the skin by just adding a new XML file to the colors/ folder.

`|`
\[[edit](https://kodi.wiki/index.php?title=Template:Para/doc&action=edit)\
\] Template documentation
Usage
-----
This template is for giving examples of [template](https://kodi.wiki/view/Category:Templates "Category:Templates")
parameter source code (useful in template documentation and talk page discussions of template code). It must have one or two parameters itself. The first is the name of the example parameter to display (this may be _empty_, but it **must** be _present_), and the second (optional) one is a value for the first example parameter, or (if the first {{Para}} parameter is empty) an unnamed example parameter.
### Examples
1. {{Para|name}}
renders as `|name=`
2. {{Para||section}}
renders as `|section` (for unnamed parameters in the example code; note the empty first parameter in the {{Para}} template)
3. {{Para|title|book title }}
renders as `|title=book title`
4. {{Para|parameter |value }}
renders as `|parameter=value`
### Semantic distinctions
When using literal, pre-specified values, simply provide the value (appearance as in example 2). When illustrating hypothetical, variable or user-definable values, wrap them in `value ` tags (as in example 3), and the same should be done for non-literal, example parameters (as in example 4). This is preferable to the use of the wikicode markup for italics (wrapping in paired single quotation marks, e.g. `''`…`''`) for accessibility reasons, as it allows those using assistive technologies like screen readers to be made aware of the intention behind such uses of italics.

**Note:** Kodi's audio is based on decibel and doesn't have 100 different levels, it has 90 (default). So at a couple places the volume will skip 2 points. E.g. 89%-91%.

Optional Properties File
------------------------
By default the script will run fine on distributions where the .xbmc/userdata folder is within the users Home folder (ie. userdata=~/.xbmc/userdata). To override this default, specify a properties file with a different value for the userdata property.
The properties file should be called **texturecache.cfg**, and be in the same directory as the texturecache.py script. What follows is an example properties file with the default values shown:
sep = |
userdata = ~/.xbmc/userdata
dbfile = Database/Textures13.db
thumbnails = Thumbnails
xbmc.host = localhost
webserver.port = 8080
webserver.username =
webserver.password =
rpc.port = 9090
download.threads = 2
extrajson.albums =
extrajson.artists =
extrajson.songs =
extrajson.movies =
extrajson.sets =
extrajson.tvshows.tvshow =
extrajson.tvshows.season =
extrajson.tvshows.episode =
qaperiod = 30
qa.file = no
qa.fail.urls = image://video, image://music
qa.warn.urls =
cache.castthumb = no
cache.hideallitems = no
cache.ignore.types = image://video
logfile =
logfile.verbose = no
checkupdate = yes
lastrunfile =
orphan.limit.check = yes
nonmedia.filetypes =
watched.overwrite = no
network.mac =
The dbfile and thumbbnails properties represent folders that are both relative to the userdata property.
Specify webserver.username and webserver.password if you require webserver authentication.
extrajson.\* properties allow the specification of additional JSON audio/video fields to be returned by the J query option.
Cast thumbnails will not be updated by default, so specify cache.castthumb = yes if you require cast artwork to be re-cached.
Ignore specific URLs when pre-loading the cache (c/C options), by specifying comma delimited regex patterns for the cache.ignore.types property. Default value is image://video. Set to None to process all URLs. Any matching URL will not be cached (c/C), nor will it be deleted when forcing a reload (option C).
Specify a filename for the logfile property, to log detailed processing information.

# Alternative keymaps for mice - Official Kodi Wiki
Alternative keymaps for mice
============================
From Official Kodi Wiki
[Jump to navigation](https://kodi.wiki/view/Alternative_keymaps_for_mice#mw-head)
[Jump to search](https://kodi.wiki/view/Alternative_keymaps_for_mice#searchInput)
Alternative keymaps for mice and remotes with airmouse features, as suggested by the community.
Contents

Installing keymaps
------------------
There are a few methods to load custom keymaps on Kodi.
### File manager
Kodi's built in **[file manager](https://kodi.wiki/view/File_manager "File manager")
** can be used to copy files from a network [file share](https://kodi.wiki/view/File_sharing "File sharing")
(such as [SMB](https://kodi.wiki/view/SMB "SMB")
/Windows sharing), or a USB thumb drive, to the [userdata folder](https://kodi.wiki/view/Userdata "Userdata")
.
1. Save the keymap you want to use as a plain text file as "keymap.xml" (it can be anything as long as it ends in .xml) on the file share.
2. Go to the File Manager in Kodi. For the default skin, Confluence, highlight the "System" tab and then select the submenu "File manager" option.
3. Add the file share as a source in the "A" window, then navigate to where the keymap file is.
4. In the "B" window go do the **Profile directory** which will be the userdata folder, then open the **keymaps** folder.
5. Highlight the keymap file from the "A" window, then press menu, and then select copy. This will copy the selected keymap to the Fire TV's userdata folder.
6. Now just restart Kodi to load the new keymap.
### Copy directly to userdata folder
1. Save the keymap you want to use as a plain text file as "keymap.xml" (it can be anything as long as it ends in .xml)
2. Use a file manager of your choice, such as the one build into your OS, and copy this file to the [userdata folder](https://kodi.wiki/view/Userdata "Userdata")
within the **keymaps** folder.
The Userdata folder is a subfolder of the _**[Kodi Data Folder](https://kodi.wiki/view/Kodi_data_folder "Kodi data folder")
**_ and is located as shown in the table below.
| Operating system | Userdata Folder |
| --- | --- |
| **Android** | Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi/userdata/ _(see [note](https://kodi.wiki/view/Userdata#Android_location "Userdata")/Library/Application Support/Kodi/userdata/ |
| **Nvidia Shield (SMB)** | smb:///internal/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi/userdata |
| **OSMC** | /home/osmc/.kodi/userdata/ |
| **tvOS** | /private/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/Kodi/userdata/ |
| **webOS** | /media/developer/apps/usr/palm/applications/org.xbmc.kodi/.kodi/userdata/ |
| **Windows** | %APPDATA%\\Kodi\\userdata |
| **Windows Portable** | <_Install location chosen by you_\>\\portable\_data\\userdata\\ |
| **Windows via Microsoft Store** | %LOCALAPPDATA%\\Packages\\XBMCFoundation.Kodi\_4n2hpmxwrvr6p\\LocalCache\\Roaming\\Kodi\\ |
| **Windows Xbox** | %LOCALAPPDATA%\\Packages\\XBMCFoundation.Kodi\_4n2hpmxwrvr6p\\LocalCache\\Roaming\\Kodi\\ |
**Note:** In some Android setups the path may be slightly different to the one stated above.
Volume and OSD
--------------
What it does
* Disables mouse movement for fullscreen video and audio.
* Click anywhere to bring up the on-screen-controls, which will re-enable mouse movement.
**Note:** You can right-click to manually hide the on-screen-controls instead of waiting for it to disappear.
* Scroll wheel controls volume when on fullscreen video or audio playback. and can be moved to if you want it to always control volume.

General FAQ
-----------
_See also: **All platforms FAQ** for FAQs that apply to all versions of Kodi._
### Requirements
_**[Link](https://kodi.wiki/view/Archive:Windows_FAQ#requirements)
**_
See: **[Supported hardware#Windows](https://kodi.wiki/view/Supported_hardware#Windows "Supported hardware")
**
### How to install and/or update Kodi
_**[Link](https://kodi.wiki/view/Archive:Windows_FAQ#install)
**_
Main page: **[HOW-TO:Install Kodi for Windows](https://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO:Install_Kodi_for_Windows "HOW-TO:Install Kodi for Windows")
**
* To download Kodi, goto [http://kodi.tv/](http://kodi.tv/)
; select "Downloads" and then run the Windows: Installer.
* Do the same to update Kodi. All your settings and files will be preserved as they are located in a different place in the [userdata folder](https://kodi.wiki/view/Userdata "Userdata")
. Be sure to make a backup of the [userdata folder](https://kodi.wiki/view/Userdata "Userdata")
when doing updates in case something goes wrong.
### Kodi for Windows version
_**[Link](https://kodi.wiki/view/Archive:Windows_FAQ#Release_version)
**_
* The current stable version of Kodi for Windows is Kodi v21.3 Omega. This is the same code that all of the other platforms (Linux, iOS, Mac OS X) are using.
### What version/nightly build/beta of Kodi am I running?
_**[Link](https://kodi.wiki/view/Archive:Windows_FAQ#Current_build)
**_
* Open the Settings Page by clicking the "gear" icon (top left corner underneath the Kodi logo) then System Information. **Note the build date.**

### Upon booting, start Kodi with a delay
_**[Link](https://kodi.wiki/view/Archive:Windows_FAQ#Delay)
**_
* When starting Kodi on Windows startup it can be that some sub services weren't started when Kodi is up.

### Black/white screen instead of video
_**[Link](https://kodi.wiki/view/Archive:Windows_FAQ#Black_white)
**_
* ... but the gui works fine.
* If you have a video adapter with pixel shader >= 2.0
* Kodi compiles the video shader at runtime and the compiler was not installed. When installing Kodi, do not uncheck the "Install DirectX" option. Contrary to a common belief, Windows Vista and above do not have a complete DirectX installation out of the box.
* if you have a DirectX 9 video adapter with pixel shader < 2.0
* version 9.11: you are out of luck because the video renderer requires support of pixel shaders >= 2.0
* versions after 9.11: supported, with the 'Software' render method. The CPU will work harder.
### "Allow hardware acceleration (dxva2)" and WASAPI output settings missing
_**[Link](https://kodi.wiki/view/Archive:Windows_FAQ#dxva2)
**_
* These options are available with Windows Vista, 7 and later.
* If you have the required OS and do not see the options, check System Info->Summary->Operating system. It should match your actual OS version.
* If not, Windows is starting Kodi in a compatibility mode, which reports an alternative OS version. To disable the compatibility mode, open the file properties of Kodi.exe (located in Program Files\\Kodi), and uncheck all the options of the Compatibility tab.
* If that doesn't help, check the compatibility options of the shortcut used to start Kodi or any launcher program that starts Kodi. If there is a chain of launchers, check each and every one.
### Video stutters when "Adjust display refresh rate" is turned on
_**[Link](https://kodi.wiki/view/Archive:Windows_FAQ#Stuttering)
**_
* The "Adjust display refresh rate" function of Kodi sometimes has bad interactions with Aero on Windows Vista and 7.
* Turn off the "Use a fullscreen window rather than true fullscreen" option.
* If you must have the "Use a fullscreen window..." option turned on, disable Aero, either globally on the PC with the selection of a basic theme, or just for Kodi, with the "Disable desktop composition" option, in the compatibility tab of Kodi.exe's file properties.
### Video stutters due to audio misconfiguration
_**[Link](https://kodi.wiki/view/Archive:Windows_FAQ#Stuttering2)
**_
* [Some users reported](http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=154265)
that video may stutter in Kodi version 12 because of audio misconfiguration.
* Go to System / Settings / Audio and try to set Analog Output.
* If you don't want to use Analog Output, try to turn on/off DTS-HD or set output to WASAPI HDMI.
* For more detailed guide and for Graphics Vendor Specifics visit forum page [HOW TO - Solve audio problems + video stutter (audio induced)](http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=146911)
.
### Video plays in half/quarter of the screen
_**[Link](https://kodi.wiki/view/Archive:Windows_FAQ#Half_video)
**_
* This happens for certain settings with nVidia graphics cards/integrated chipsets and hardware decoding. To fix this, go in the 3D settings of the nVidia Control panel and stop forcing antialiasing to be used (set "Antialiasing - Mode" to Application-controlled or Off). To avoid changing the setting globally and to preserve it for other applications, you can alternatively create a program profile for Kodi and only disable antialiasing in that profile.
### DVD player does not work/"please insert disk" message
_**[Link](https://kodi.wiki/view/Archive:Windows_FAQ#DVD_player)
**_
* Please check if you have more than one ejectable media drive in your system. If that's the case you must be sure that you insert the disk in the drive that has the first drive letter, as Kodi will fail in all others. You may need to swap driver letters in your Windows installation.
### Chinese/Asian text as unrecognized squares

* For example, using the YouTube add-on to search for Chinese media video content, the Kodi displays the retrieved media video title Chinese text as unrecognized squares. The reason is that the default font pre-installed with Kodi does not support Chinese Unicode Font display.
* To make Kodi to display proper Chinese Text, you need a True-Type Font (.ttf) that supports Chinese Unicode. Below steps guide you on how to install the required font:
1. Navigate to Windows -> Fonts directory, select an Unicode ttf font file that supports Chinese characters display e.g.KaiTiRegular, copy the font file.
2. Navigate to the Kodi user directory i.e. C:\\Users\\\\AppData\\Roaming\\Kodi\\media\\Fonts (Windows 7)
3. Create the Fonts sub-directory if it does not exist.
4. Paste the copies Chinese font .ttf file into this Fonts sub-directory.
5. Rename the newly copied .ttf file to arial.ttf.
6. Launch Kodi and navigate to System -> Appearance -> Skin
7. Change the Fonts selection to 'Arial based'.
* You should now be able to see the Chinese font display properly.
* Note: Your Windows system must have the Asia Fonts support pre-installed. Otherwise you may not be able to find any Chinese .ttf font file in Windows -> Fonts directory.
### No text in Kodi with AMD GPU
_**[Link](https://kodi.wiki/view/Archive:Windows_FAQ#No_text)
**_
* AMD Catalyst 12.10 and 12.11 drivers have a known issue where they will cause all Kodi GUI text to show up as scattered dots (or nothing at all). A fix has been published by AMD with the **12.11 Beta 11** Catalyst drivers.

### Getting IR remote working on Windows Server 2008 & WHS 2011
_**[Link](https://kodi.wiki/view/Archive:Windows_FAQ#Server_08)
**_
* The link below contains instructions to install the required drivers to get IR remotes working in the following Windows operating systems
1. Windows Server 2008
2. Windows Home Server 2011
* [Sri's Media Center Blog - Install ehome IR drivers on WHS 2011/ windows 2008](http://www.hellosri.com/2012/07/install-ehome-ir-drivers-on-whs-2011.html)
### Audio issues and/or slow video playback
_**[Link](https://kodi.wiki/view/Archive:Windows_FAQ#Audio)
**_
* Make sure that your audio settings are correct. Wrong audio settings will have severely negative effects on video playback.
* Check to see if your speaker setup is really correct
* If passthrough: make sure you **only** enable the audio codecs your receiver supports.
* Select the correct audio output device for analog and passthrough.
* Most user can fix their issue by just switching to "DirectSound" in the audio settings. See **Windows\_audio** for more in-depth information.
### ERROR: Unable to create GUI. Exiting.
_**[Link](https://kodi.wiki/view/Archive:Windows_FAQ#GUI_error)
**_
* If you are getting this error when trying to start Kodi, make sure you have specific and updated graphics card drivers installed. Generic graphics card drivers might not work with Kodi.

This page goes into detail on using PulseAudio on Linux systems. PulseAudio is used when Kodi is installed in a desktop-environment rather than a dedicated/direct boot setup. PulseAudio allows normal video & audio playback in XBMC while at the same time allowing the user to get audio in their browser or other applications. It also allows Kodi playback of video or audio to be paused in order to run a game, Skype or similar. Kodi is set to only use PulseAudio if you have installed it and running.

History
-------
In the past users have experienced problems with audio not working within Kodi, because they were running a full-blown Ubuntu desktop environment with PulseAudio installed. This happened because PulseAudio blocked the device Kodi required, and audio playback only worked reliably when using the virtual Pulse device.
Our workaround for those users has been to uninstall PulseAudio which completely broke desktop audio.
For XBMC 13 'Gotham' and later (named Kodi since 14 'Helix') we wanted this situation to change, so thanks to the new **PulseAudio Sink** users now can run a normal Ubuntu desktop.
PulseAudio Output Configuration
-------------------------------
PulseAudio will be automatically detected and selected in Kodi when it is running.
PulseAudio can be run in one of two modes these are:
**Passthrough Mode** Used if you want to passthrough (bitstream) AC3, DTS, and EAC3 to an AVR or other device. In order to allow passthrough to work with PulseAudio then it **MUST** be set to use a 2.0 channel configuration, despite the 2.0 setting this will still allow 5.1 audio from AC3, DTS, and EAC3.
**Note:** PulseAudio does not currently allow TrueHD or DTS-MA passthrough, this is a PulseAudio limitation and not a limitation of the Kodi implementation, in order to get 7.1 audio Multichannel Mode must be used
**Multichannel Mode**
Used if you want Multichannel PCM out, in this mode you can configure PulseAudio for up to 7.1 channels. In this mode Kodi must decode all audio formats to PCM for passing onto the PulseAudio, this can have the advantage of improve audio/video sync. In the case of video with TrueHD/DTS-HD 7.1 audio this must be decoded by Kodi to Multichannel PCM by disabling passthrough, then Pulseaudio can handle the 7.1 channels of audio.
**Note:** Audio decoded to PCM and sent through PulseAudio the audio will not likely be "bit perfect". As Pulseaudio will always open the number of channels you have configured. You can stop it doing upmixing (see Known issues), but it will still open all configured channels which makes Dolby Pro Logic II of your AVR not usable.
Setting up pavucontrol
----------------------
### Passthrough Mode
**IMPORTANT:** Passthrough is always an exclusive mode. If you have another application hogging the device, e.g. Chrome or Skype, passthrough won't work. Even applications that simply monitor the device, such as SoundWireServer, will prevent passthrough from working.
**REMEMBER:** To use passthrough you need to be using **2.0** channel configuration via **pavucontrol** (e.g. Digital Stereo (HDMI)
In order to activate passthrough codecs, setup pavucontrol as following:
* [](https://kodi.wiki/view/File:Passthrough2.png "Step 1: pavucontrol Output Settings.")
**Step 1:** _pavucontrol_ **Output Settings.**
* [](https://kodi.wiki/view/File:Passthrough1.png "Step 2: pavucontrol Configuration.")
**Step 2:** _pavucontrol_ **Configuration.**
If you like to do this from the command line, first, first identify the correct sound card ID:
**pacmd list-cards**
Look at the output to find the id of the card and the name/format of the profile you want to use (in this case, card ID is **0** and profile is **output:hdmi-stereo**) Once you've identified this information, set your output profile to the one for hdmi-stereo:
**pacmd set-card-profile 0 output:hdmi-stereo**
Then, obtain the sink ID you want to set formats on by inspecting output of:
**pactl list sinks**
Then set the sink format for the sink you want, as below (in this case **0**):
**pactl set-sink-formats 0 "pcm; ac3-iec61937; dts-iec61937; eac3-iec61937"**
You can leave out the codecs your AVR does not support, always keep pcm.
**IMPORTANT:** If you have for example 5.1 flacs or other multichannel files, you can play them as AC3 streams, check the AC3 Transcoding setting.
**IMPORTANT:** Enabling **Sync Playback to Display** will disable passthrough silently, as it makes zero sense to sync with a display clock while one cannot alter audio.
### Multichannel Mode
**REMEMBER:** When configuring pulse to use **Multichannel configuration** passthrough will be disabled

DEVICE ENUMERATION: Kodi Enumerates Pulseaudio devices as SPDIF when you have **Passthrough** set. Otherwise its **PCM Device**. If **Passthrough** was not configured with pavucontrol - no **Passthrough** setting within Kodi will be available.
GOOD TO KNOW: SPDIF has 2 pcm channels but can do virtual 5.1 formats like dts, ac3, eac3.
**NOTICE** The following is meant to act as a guide to get you started, thus you may want to adjust things to suit your own particular set of equipment.

"Drawing on the legacy of the groundbreaking Al Jazeera Arabic channel, Al Jazeera English was launched on November 15, 2006 to more than 80 million households worldwide.
The 24-hour news and current affairs channel is the first international English-language news channel to broadcast across the globe from the Middle East.
Al Jazeera's global footprint continues to grow and now broadcasts to more than 220 million households on six continents in more than 100 countries.
Our channel is broadcast from four strategic broadcast centres: Doha, Kuala Lumpur, London, and Washington DC. Unlike other international channels, we broadcast from our different centres, as the world turns, providing the most comprehensive and contextual news coverage.
Our mission is to provide independent, impartial news for an international audience and to offer a voice to a diversity of perspectives from under-reported regions.
In addition, the channel aims to balance the information flow between the South and the North.
The channel of reference for the Middle East and Africa, Al Jazeera has unique access to some of the world’s most troubled and controversial locations. Our determination and ability to accurately reflect the truth on the ground in regions torn by conflict and poverty has set our content apart."

# Archive talk:Wiki Advertising Policy - Official Kodi Wiki
Archive talk:Wiki Advertising Policy
====================================
From Official Kodi Wiki
[Jump to navigation](https://kodi.wiki/view/Archive_talk:Wiki_Advertising_Policy#mw-head)
[Jump to search](https://kodi.wiki/view/Archive_talk:Wiki_Advertising_Policy#searchInput)
**Note:** This is not official Team Kodi policy, this is only a suggestion of a Wiki Advertising Policy for Kodi. Most is just borrow from Wikipedia [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:What\_Wikipedia\_is\_not#Wikipedia\_is\_not\_a\_soapbox\_or\_means\_of\_promotion](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:What_Wikipedia_is_not#Wikipedia_is_not_a_soapbox_or_means_of_promotion)
)
Wiki Advertising Policy needed for Kodi?
----------------------------------------
Just thought that a Wiki Advertising Policy is needed for Kodi now that so many new devices pop-up with Kodi support. What do you think? [Gamester17](https://kodi.wiki/view/User:Gamester17 "User:Gamester17")
([talk](https://kodi.wiki/view/User_talk:Gamester17 "User talk:Gamester17")
) 08:56, 23 June 2015 (EDT)
Actually see that the [Official:Forum rules](https://kodi.wiki/view/Official:Forum_rules "Official:Forum rules")
have a "no solicitation" section which list a kind of _advertisement and promotion policy_ recommendation, but there is no Official:Wiki rules with such rules and guidelines. Maybe it's worth copying or paraphrase some excerpts from Wikipedia? [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:What\_Wikipedia\_is\_not](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:What_Wikipedia_is_not)
[Gamester17](https://kodi.wiki/view/User:Gamester17 "User:Gamester17")
([talk](https://kodi.wiki/view/User_talk:Gamester17 "User talk:Gamester17")
) 09:08, 23 June 2015 (EDT)
WIkipedia's guidelines would need a lot of adapting, since they have a lot of additional requirements that don't really apply to us. For example, no strong "opinions" on things, where as I think it's fine to say if something doesn't seem to work very well, or feels poorly made, etc.
I did once start a very basic and rough page on [Help:Rules](https://kodi.wiki/view/Help:Rules "Help:Rules")
, with the idea of actually encouraging groups, software authors, and companies, to edit the wiki so long as what they added was "reasonably objective and related to Kodi", and that any issues would be judged from case to case. Editor traffic is low enough to keep an eye on things like that.
Still, I'll try to add the applicable parts from this page/wikipedia to the rules page and make sure it is linked from the other help pages. Over all, this is a good idea to have. -- [Ned Scott](https://kodi.wiki/view/User:Ned_Scott "User:Ned Scott")
([talk](https://kodi.wiki/view/User_talk:Ned_Scott "User talk:Ned Scott")
) 16:46, 23 June 2015 (EDT)
#### No solicitation
1. Do not try to sell services or hardware to individuals on our forums.
Exception: If you own a company and want to run a special discount or promotion for Kodi forum members in your shop, contact a member of Team Kodi for permission first.
2. Do not use usernames to promote your business, product, or website.
Exception: We make an exception when the username is in relation to a legal non-profit or the company you represent is an official XBMC Foundation sponsor. Allowed group names must include a personal identifier (e.g. KodiSponsor-Nate or Nonprofit-Nate).
3. Do not post donation links directly to Paypal or any other donation collections website.
Exception: If you are the author of an original work relating to Kodi, you may include one (1) direct donation link in your forum post concerning this work. The link must be written with this exact wording: "Donations for this \[addon/skin/guide/etc\] gratefully accepted."
You are allowed to post links to other websites, even if those websites have links to donation sites. For example; Wikipedia requests donations regularly, but you are still welcome to post links to Wikipedia. If you’ve written a guide or created an Kodi addon on your site that’s applicable to a discussion, and your site includes a donation option, you are still welcome to post a link to your website.

* The **** tag **must** have a **version="1"** attribute, or the **** tag will not be supported.
* Your addon settings file can only have one **** tag.
The id should be the id of your addon. The use of multiple sections is reserved for Kodi's main settings.xml file.
* You can use multiple **** tags, just like in the old addon settings format.
The id of a category needs to be a string.
* The **** tag is a replacement for the old **sep** and **lsep** types.
You can define multiple groups in order to group a number of settings.
Level
-----
Similar to Kodi settings, addons can now define a setting level for every setting.
This will show or hide certain settings based on the settings level the user has selected (Basic, Standard, Advanced, Expert).

The various levels are defined as such:
* 0 - Basic
* 1 - Standard
* 2 - Advanced
* 3 - Expert
* 4 - Internal (will never be shown in the GUI)

### Auto size labels
Wrapping your label in a grouplist with the auto width and appropriate minimum and maximum values, allows the labels width to dynamically change relevant to how long the label text is. This allows an image or other control to be aligned to the right of the actual label text no matter how wide the label is.
auto
Also, simply specifying auto is also supported.
### Multi-line labels
If you want your label control to span multiple lines, you can insert a new line character in your label. For example:
This will be on the first line\[CR\]And this will be on the second line
Also, if you want your label control to conform to the parameter, but still want to be able to give it more content than will fit on one line, then setting:
true
will cause the text to be cut up (at the spaces in the text) onto multiple lines. Note that if a single word is larger than then it will not be cut, and will still overflow.
### Available tags
In addition to the **[Default Control Tags](https://kodi.wiki/view/Default_Control_Tags "Default Control Tags")
** the following tags are available. Note that each tag is **lower case** only. This is important, as xml tags are case**\-**sensitive.
| Tag | Description |
| --- | --- |
| align | Can be left, right, or center. Aligns the text within the given label ``. Defaults to left |
| aligny | Can be top or center. Aligns the text within its given label ``. Defaults to top |
| scroll | When true, the text will scroll if longer than the label's ``. If false, the text will be truncated. Defaults to false. |
| label | Specifies the text which should be drawn. You should specify an entry from the strings.po here (either the Kodi strings.po or your skin's strings.po file). The fallback attribute will be used when the infolabel returns empty. You can use the full [label formatting syntax](https://kodi.wiki/view/Label_Formatting "Label Formatting")`. [See here for more information.](https://kodi.wiki/view/InfoLabels "InfoLabels") |
| number | Specifies a number that should be presented. This is just here to allow a skinner to use a number rather than a text label (as any number given to `` will be used to lookup in strings.po) |
| angle | The angle the text should be rendered at, in degrees. A value of 0 is horizontal. |
| haspath | Specifies whether or not this label is filled with a path. Long paths are shortened by compressing the file path while keeping the actual filename full length. |
| font | Specifies the font to use from the font.xml file. |
| textcolor | Specifies the color the text should be, in hex AARRGGBB format, or a name from the [colour theme.](https://kodi.wiki/view/Colour_themes "Colour themes") |
| shadowcolor | Specifies the color of the drop shadow on the text, in AARRGGBB format, or a name from the [colour theme.](https://kodi.wiki/view/Colour_themes "Colour themes") |
| wrapmultiline | If true, any text that doesn't fit on one line will be wrapped onto multiple lines. |
| scrollspeed | Scroll speed of text in pixels per second. Defaults to 60. |
| scrollsuffix | Specifies the suffix used in scrolling labels. Defaults to " \| ". |

In case you're nominated, please reply with something like..
Quote:
Thank you. I accept my nomination.
or
Quote:
No, thanks. I decline my nomination.
The second post in this thread will be updated with a list of members and the nomination status on a regular basis, so you don't have to crawl through all posts/pages to check.
The nomination period is 1 month starting today and will end on September 18th. Actual voting will begin after that and will be closed a couple of weeks later (if a vote is required). Once the voting is over, the results will be announced in this thread as well as through a team email.
The actual starting date for the new board seats will be in October or November, when we would like to have a joint online meeting with the old and new board members as a smooth hand-over and to welcome the new board members.
* If you'd like to vote in the election, you need to be accepted as a foundation member and affirm the by-laws of the foundation.
Details on applying to join the Foundation are at: Click here to join the foundation A list of all foundation members can be found here: [https://drive.google.com/open?id=1yy\_gPb...Y0UJaJRPHE](https://drive.google.com/open?id=1yy_gPb...Y0UJaJRPHE)
(Foundation member list - only accessible to Google accounts logged in using your Kodi address).

#### TV Shows
After choosing **TV Shows** a list of all the recorded TV shows grouped by title is shown. This makes it easy to see what TV series or one-off programs have been recorded.
TODO: Update image.
After choosing a title, the list of recorded programs with that title is shown.
TODO: Update image.
### Watching Live TV
After choosing **Live Channels** a listing of the channels used by MythTV is displayed. [](https://kodi.wiki/view/File:MythTV.LiveTV.jpg)
When a channel is chosen, the currently playing TV show on that channel is shown.
It is possible to pause Live TV, but it is not possible to skip. To move up or down a channel when playing Live TV press the PageUp or PageDown button. Note that channel changes can take some time depending on the tuner hardware and configuration being used by MythTV.
### Viewing the Electronic Program Guide (EPG)
After choosing **Guide** a listing of channels used by MythTV is shown.
[](https://kodi.wiki/view/File:MythTV.Guide.jpg)
When a channel is chosen, the listing of upcoming programs on that channel is displayed.
[](https://kodi.wiki/view/File:MythTV.Guide.TV3.jpg)
There is a future project to be able to schedule programs to record from the EPG similar to the functionality available in the MythTV frontend.
### Adding Recorded Movies to the Video Library
Recorded movies can be added to the XBMC Video Library by setting the **Content Type** on the Movies directory and then choosing the appropriate Movie scraper.
Once the recorded Movies have been scanned to the Library, you can see and play them via the XBMC Movie Library.
**NOTE:** be sure to only set the content type for the **Movies** folder. XBMC doesn't understand how to add anything other than movies. If you choose a folder containing recorded TV Shows to be added to the library you may end up with all sorts of strange files in your XBMC library.
### Automatic Commercial Skipping
Commercial breaks that have been flagged in MythTV are automatically skipped as of the 9.11 release (note that the option to turn EDL support on/off has now been removed). Prior to 9.11, automatic commercial skipping can be enabled by turning on Edit Decision List (EDL) support in XBMC Media Center through _Settings -> Video -> Player -> Enable edit decision lists_.
Each commercial break is only skipped once so it's possible to go back into any incorrectly flagged commercial break. Scene markers are also put in at the beginning and end of the flagged commercial breaks to further support navigation.
For more information about the configuration that is possible for commercial skipping, see the Edit Decision Lists wiki page.
### Deleting Recorded Programs
The ability to delete recorded programs can be enabled through _Settings -> Appearance -> View Options -> Allow file renaming and deletion_.
### Known Problems
* Need to delete a recording twice for it to be removed if using a MythTV 0.20 backend. Deleting works as expected using a MythTV 0.21 backend.
* Channel changes can take some time when using LiveTV.
### Trouble Shooting
#### Recordings Don't Play
For the myth:// protocol to play recordings, XBMC must be able to access the **IP Address** configured in the MythTV backend using **mythtv-setup**. This is necessary because of the way the Myth Protocol works. The Myth API gets the IP Address configured in the MythTV backend and uses that to stream recordings.
If a hostname was used in the IP Address configuration for the MythTV Local Backend, either the DNS server on the network needs to be able to resolve the hostname to an IP address, or a static hostname to IP address entry is needed on the XBMC machine. A static IP address mapping can be set in the _/etc/hosts_ file in Linux or Mac OSX, or in the _AdvancedSettings.xml_ file for the original XBox.
Even if you haven't used a hostname, it may be worth adding an _/etc/hosts_ file entry, as it appears that the backend returns a hostname anyway sometimes (see [\[1\]](http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?t=45050&page=3)
).
Double check that the Local Backend IP Address configured in the MythTV backend is not set to _localhost_ or _127.0.0.1_ if the MythTV backend is running on a different machine to XBMC Media Center.
#### Guide Doesn't Display Anything
Check that the username and password supplied in the myth:// URL are a username and password that have access to the mythconverg MySQL database. The guide information is obtained directly from the database.
If a username and password have not been supplied in the myth:// URL then the default of 'mythtv' will be used for both.
See Setup in XBMC for more information.
#### Live TV Doesn't Play
The **libcmyth** library used for to connect to MythTV from XBMC only enumerates the first 16 tuner devices when looking for available tuners. [Trac - CMyth only enumerates 17 tuners](http://trac.kodi.tv/ticket/4771)
Depending on what was done when the MythTV backend was set up, it's possible that some Tuner ID's are > 17 in the mythconverg database (especially if tuners were added and deleted several times, or if multiplexing is being used for digital terrestrial tuners).
If this is the case, you may be able to see the **Guide** and all the stations displayed in XBMC, but XBMC may not be able to select a tuner for live TV playback.
This can be resolved by removing all the tuners through **mythtv-setup** (so they start at 0 when re-added), and then re-adding them, or reducing the number of multiplexed virtual tuners that are created for each physical digital terrestrial tuner.
If a only a green screen displayed but the audio is working fine. Use mythtv's frontend to change the encoder to mpeg4. The settings can be found in "Utilites/Setup- Setup - TV Settings - Recording Profiles - Software Encoders. Select Live TV, and change it's encoder from rtjpeg to mpeg4.
#### Audio Plays Out of Sync
If CPU utilization is close to 100% on any of the CPU cores then there could be audio sync problems.
Depending on the video card and driver being used, there could be significant CPU utilized when playing H264 video content. The [ advanced setting](https://kodi.wiki/view/Advancedsettings.xml#.3Cskiploopfilter.3E "Advancedsettings.xml")
can be used to reduce the CPU utilization by reducing the quality of the output H264 video. Try setting it to 48.
History of MythTV support in XBMC
---------------------------------
MythTV support in XBMC has been available since ~2004. It started life as a Python script for the original XBox that had functionality added by willing developers over the following years. Eventually the script moved to the current home at Sourceforge, and is now called [xbmcmythtv](http://sourceforge.net/projects/xbmcmythtv/)
. In late 2008 another script based solution arrived called [MythBox](http://code.google.com/p/mythbox/)
.
In 2007 support for communicating with the MythTV backend was added directly to XBMC via a Source using the myth:// protocol. This project uses the cmyth library, which was built to use the network based [Myth Protocol](http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Myth_Protocol)
supported by MythTV.
In 2009, the Google Summer of Code - Unified PVR Frontend project was launched to provide added functionality to the existing myth:// protocol support (here is a historical [MythTV frontend client built into XBMC](http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?t=2297)
forum thread).
In early 2011 the initial work from the GSoC for the unified PVR API was folded into a branch of xbmc, which was eventually pushed back to mainline XBMC in October 2012 and is scheduled to be released in Frodo/12.x: see [PVR](https://kodi.wiki/view/PVR "PVR")
. This support will include a MythTV client.
### myth:// Source
The myth:// source was released in early 2007. This project uses the network based [Myth Protocol](http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Myth_Protocol)
to communicate with the MythTV backend. It also accesses the MySQL database directly to get **Guide** information.
Although the myth:// source doesn't support all the functionality that the xbmcmythtv script supported, it is possible to play recordings, which is all many XBMC frontend systems need to support.
The native MythTV frontend client needs to be used to schedule recordings.
### MythTV Python Scripts for XBMC
MythTV Python Scripts for XBMC that provide a python coded GUI for MythTV interface.
### MythBox Script (Linux/Mac/Windows)
[MythBox](http://code.google.com/p/mythbox/)
was released in late 2008 and is a XBMC script for MythTV that supports the most common frontend use cases:
* Watching recordings with commercial skipping
* Watching Live TV
* Creating and editing recording schedules
* Showing upcoming recordings
* TV Guide
* Tuner and job status
* Fanart and episode meta data from tvdb.com, tvrage.com, themoviedb.org, imdb.com, and Google image search.
* MythTV Backends: 0.21, 0.22, 0.23, 0.23.1
### Myth2XBMC Script (Xbox)
[Myth2XBMC](http://code.google.com/p/myth2xbmc/)
heavily based on the original [xbmcmythtv](http://sourceforge.net/projects/xbmcmythtv/)
script and is only tested on the Xbox.
### xbmcmythtv Script (Xbox)
Support for MythTV in XBMC started with this [xbmcmythtv](http://sourceforge.net/projects/xbmcmythtv/)
python script for XBMC on the Xbox. This project communicated with the MythTV mythconverg MySQL database to get information, and played recordings via a Samba share on the MythTV backend.
The last official release of the Python script was in May 2007 and supported version 0.20 of MythTV and protocol 34. Various unofficial releases were made available by some of the developers of xbmcmythtv, but appears to no longer be supported on an ongoing basis.
### MythicalLibrarian and MythSExx
MythicalLibrarian and MythSExx are bash scripts which can be run on the MythTV server to create symlinks to the recorded files. The symlinks use the supported XBMC naming conventions so the standard filesystem scrapers can be used to scan recorded MythTV content into the XBMC Movie and TV Show libraries. They also generate the required EDL files to support commercial skip during playback.
MythicalLibrarian handles both TV episodes and Movies whereas MythSExx only handles TV episodes.

**Note:** Path substitution or any kind of sharing of setting files is not officially supported (with the exception of playlists). It probably won't hurt anything, but some things might not always work right depending on what you are substituting. The following settings on this page are believed to work okay, but if something doesn't work out, just copy the file instead of trying to share/pathsub it.
**OPTIONAL**
Many things can be synced using [path substitution](https://kodi.wiki/view/Path_substitution "Path substitution")
.
**DO NOT TRY TO SHARE DATABASES WITH THIS METHOD.**
This works with both directories and single files. The following directories and files are generally safe to share between Kodi devices:

* [1.6 Network share passwords](https://kodi.wiki/view/MySQL/Sync_other_parts_of_Kodi#Network_share_passwords)
Steps
-----
1. Share your existing [userdata folder](https://kodi.wiki/view/Userdata "Userdata")
or a new folder with those files via NFS, SMB, or AFP (make sure have write access, not just read-only access). Most users to do this from the same computer/device as the MySQL server.
2. Copy the text from the right hand boxes and add it to your **advancedsettings.xml** file, between the `` and ` ` tags.
3. Note/copy the network path of your shared data folder and use that to replace **PROTOCOL://YOUR\_NETWORK\_SHARE/kodi/userdata/**, for example an SMB share holding your playlists use `smb://NAS/share/kodi_stuff/Playlists/`
4. Make sure all Kodi devices that are being synced have this addition to their _advancedsettings.xml_ file.
### Playlists
special://profile/playlists/
PROTOCOL://YOUR\_NETWORK\_SHARE/kodi/userdata/playlists/
The Playlist folder in Kodi contains music, video and mixed [playlists](https://kodi.wiki/view/Playlists "Playlists")
. If you have imported from pre-existing media libraries then you can use your old playlist folder to save time on recreating the various playlists. If your playlists include local file paths, you will need to edit them to use network shares instead.
### Keymaps
special://profile/keymaps/
PROTOCOL://YOUR\_NETWORK\_SHARE/kodi/userdata/keymaps/
Useful if you want the controls on all your Kodi devices to be the same. Might not be a good idea if you use different types of remotes on different devices, as you'll likely want to have individual configurations for them.
### Sources
special://profile/sources.xml
PROTOCOL://YOUR\_NETWORK\_SHARE/kodi/userdata/sources.xml
special://profile/mediasources.xml
PROTOCOL://YOUR\_NETWORK\_SHARE/kodi/userdata/mediasources.xml
The sources.xml file contains a list of all the sources your media will be collected from, including both local and network-based media. This will also allow you to sync everything that is just in Files view and not in the video library.
If an Kodi device has a source that is specific to it (such as on an internal hard drive that is not shared with the rest of the devices) then you might not want to share sources.xml.
mediasources.xml is similar to sources.xml, but only effects the options seen when you add a new source and select "browse". It really doesn't matter much if you share this file or not.
### RSS Feeds
special://profile/RssFeeds.xml
PROTOCOL://YOUR\_NETWORK\_SHARE/kodi/userdata/RssFeeds.xml
This file tells Kodi what RSS feed to show on the home screen, if enabled.
### Favourites
special://profile/favourites.xml
PROTOCOL://YOUR\_NETWORK\_SHARE/kodi/userdata/favourites.xml
This will sync your [favorites](https://kodi.wiki/view/Favorites "Favorites")
selections between all Kodi devices. If the favorite depends on a file path that is specific to one device then this might not work for the other devices.
### Network share passwords
special://profile/passwords.xml
PROTOCOL://YOUR\_NETWORK\_SHARE/kodi/userdata/passwords.xml
If your network shares use passwords (at least for SMB) then you will need to manually copy the passwords.xml file over to each Kodi device. This file keeps track of those passwords.

B1. Change every occurrence of _Thumb_ to _Fanart_ in the _thumb_ sections, i.e.
$INFO\[Window.Property(LatestEpisode.1.Thumb)\]
e.g. **LatestEpisode.1.Thumb** to **LatestEpisode.1.Fanart**
B2. Or change every occurrence of _Thumb_ to _ShowThumb_ in the _thumb_ sections to get TV Posters, i.e.
$INFO\[Window.Property(LatestEpisode.1.Thumb)\]
e.g. **LatestEpisode.1.Thumb** to **LatestEpisode.1.ShowThumb**
**Note:** Changing to TV Posters doesn't look that good. You'll get smaller posters than for movies (because of the double lines) and a lot of dead space. So to get a good looking _recently TV Shows_ you'd have to use the same style as for movies, increase to five episodes and e.g. remove the episode title line which is a bit more complex than just changing to TV Posters.
C. Find the following _control_ section:
160
50
Library.HasContent(TVShows)
D. Within the _control_ section find ****
E. Within the _itemlayout_ section find:
10
10

F. Change **scale ** to **keep **
_Keep_ will make so the whole fanart is visible (though decreasing the height of the box), with _scale_ the aspect ratio is kept and any portions that lie outside the box are being cropped off.

Interacting with XBMC
---------------------
Given that your script can return information to the user, you may wish to allow some (or all) of the information you provide to be translatable. You do this by providing a strings.po file (in resources/language//strings.po) which associates integer id's with each label. XBMC then handles loading these string files and ensuring that the users' locale information is taken into account. To display strings you use the **getString** function in the xbmcaddon module.

| first\|second\|…\|999th }} | ⇒ | {{[Template](https://kodi.wiki/view/Template:Template "Template:Template")param=value "; see _[§ Examples](https://kodi.wiki/view/Template:Tlx#Examples)
_ below.
* _**Exceptions:**_ If the intended template lists numerous parameters, then perhaps this template should really _not_ be used, and just hardcode the usage with ```... ```, for example: ```{{Template|param1=23|size=250px|otherparams…}} ```. If a vertical display with parameters on their own lines is desired, this can also be laid out manually in this manner, or more rapidly done with `... ` tags.
* * *
* If given no additional parameters except the template name, as in `{{Tlx|Template name}}` or `{{Tlx|1=Template name}}`, the output is functionally equivalent to the {{[Tl](https://kodi.wiki/view/Template:Tl "Template:Tl")
}} macro template: a blue hyperlink nested in [double braces](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bracket#Curly_brackets "wikipedia:Bracket")
— the same as a user would apply the template (without parameters) — but with a noticably clearer font and more character spacing on most modern browsers.
* Comparing the output of the two templates side-by-side: Tl ⇒ {{[Template](https://kodi.wiki/view/Template:Template "Template:Template")
}} versus Tlx ⇒ {{[Template](https://kodi.wiki/view/Template:Template "Template:Template")
}}
* Comparatively, {{[Tl](https://kodi.wiki/view/Template:Tl "Template:Tl")
}} will not take or display additional parameters, and for minor technical reasons, may be preferred for mere listing and referencing in long pages involving a lot of template expansions.
* {{Tlx}} has a named parameter, `|subst=`, which when set to any value will place the string `subst:` before the template name, linked to [Help:Substitution](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Substitution "wikipedia:Help:Substitution")
. This is useful to indicate when a template should be substituted; for example {{Tlx|Template|subst=y}} will display {{[subst](https://kodi.wiki/index.php?title=Help:Substitution&action=edit&redlink=1 "Help:Substitution (page does not exist)")
:[Template](https://kodi.wiki/view/Template:Template "Template:Template")
}}.
Usage
-----
**{{Tlx}}** is a generalization of {{[Tl](https://kodi.wiki/view/Template:Tl "Template:Tl")
|x}}, et cetera, with arguably more readable output. This depends on the browser, but most of them use too narrow a form of `**{**`, `**|**` and `**}**` in conjunction with hyperlinks tend to be hard to read.
### Invocation
{{Tlx|Template name}}
{{Tlx|Template name|param}}
{{Tlx|Template name|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10}}
{{Tlx|Template name|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10|more}}
{{Tlx|Template name|param=value}}
_Up to 10 placeholders for parameters of the specified template_
### Examples
| Code | Result | Remark |
| --- | --- | --- |
| {{**Tlx**\|Template}} | {{[Template](https://kodi.wiki/view/Template:Template "Template:Template")14\|m\|ftin\|abbr=out\|sp=us }} | {{[Template](https://kodi.wiki/view/Template:Template "Template:Template")... ` string |
| {{**Tlx**\|Template\|x=u}} | {{[Template](https://kodi.wiki/view/Template:Template "Template:Template")x=u }} | {{[Template](https://kodi.wiki/view/Template:Template "Template:Template")... ` is a little messy, but works all the same |
| {{**Tlx**\|Template\| \|two}} | {{[Template](https://kodi.wiki/view/Template:Template "Template:Template") in [advancedsettings.xml](https://kodi.wiki/view/Advancedsettings.xml "Advancedsettings.xml").
The file path/URL can be partial, such as just the address for a server.
**Note:** Path substition for "sources" and profiles only works from v18.3
### Example
Save as "advancedsettings.xml" in your [userdata folder](https://kodi.wiki/view/Userdata "Userdata")
:
Example - changing where thumbnails are stored
**Note:** This will slowdown thumbnail loading, but might be worth it for low-memory devices.
special://profile/Thumbnails/
PROTOCOL://YOUR\_NETWORK\_SHARE/Kodi/userdata/Thumbnails/
**Note:**Not all special paths can be substituted. In particular, special://musicplaylists/ and special://videoplaylists/ should not be substituted, as internally these are multipaths that cannot be written to (thus saving of playlists will go elsewhere).
Moving the userdata folder on Android
-------------------------------------
See: **[HOW-TO:Change data location for Android](https://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO:Change_data_location_for_Android "HOW-TO:Change data location for Android")
**
The userdata folder can't normally be relocated completely, except on Android. See **[HOW-TO:Change data location for Android](https://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO:Change_data_location_for_Android "HOW-TO:Change data location for Android")
** for more details.
Special notes about path substitution for userdata files
--------------------------------------------------------
Path substitution is not officially supported for settings files. It probably won't hurt anything, but some things might not always work right depending on what you are substituting.
Thumbnails
Sharing the Thumbnails folder with Path Substitution is prone to problems, primarily because the Texture Cache consists of two interlinked data stores - the Thumbnails folder and the SQLite database Textures13.db. Sharing the SQLite Textures13.db between multiple clients is **not** supported under any circumstances due to the liklehood of database corruption.
Since sharing of the database is not realistically possible, attempts at sharing only the Thumbnails folder will either fail completely, or result in some artwork items never being displayed, or you may experience artwork being displayed but with higher or lower than expected image quality or even image corruption (a result of different clients overwriting previously cached artwork, as not all clients cache artwork at the same resolutions, or even use the same image formats).
If you must use Path Substitution to relocate (rather than share) your Thumbnails folder, by all means do so but only for individual clients and their associated Thumbnails folder. Do **not** share a single Thumbnails folder between multiple clients, as the Texture Cache is simply not designed to support this and you will experience problems.

If you have a remote control that is viewed as a keyboard to Kodi and want to enable SMS-style text input and page jumping, this guide wills how you how to enable this using a custom **[keymap](https://kodi.wiki/view/Keymap "Keymap")
**. If you have a normal "MCE" style remote or non-Android CEC device, then this how-to may not necessary.
Steps
-----
1Create a **plain text file** (no rich text formatting, don't use .doc, etc) and save it as **keyboard.xml**. Make sure that the file extension is ".xml" and **not** ".txt" or ".xml.txt".2Cut and paste this into your new plain text file:
Number0
JumpSMS1
JumpSMS2
JumpSMS3
JumpSMS4
JumpSMS5

3Save this file in [userdata](https://kodi.wiki/view/Userdata "Userdata")
/Keymaps/:[userdata folder](https://kodi.wiki/view/Userdata "Userdata")
location:
The Userdata folder is a subfolder of the _**[Kodi Data Folder](https://kodi.wiki/view/Kodi_data_folder "Kodi data folder")
**_ and is located as shown in the table below.
| Operating system | Userdata Folder |
| --- | --- |
| **Android** | Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi/userdata/ _(see [note](https://kodi.wiki/view/Userdata#Android_location "Userdata")/Library/Application Support/Kodi/userdata/ |
| **Nvidia Shield (SMB)** | smb:///internal/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi/userdata |
| **OSMC** | /home/osmc/.kodi/userdata/ |
| **tvOS** | /private/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/Kodi/userdata/ |
| **webOS** | /media/developer/apps/usr/palm/applications/org.xbmc.kodi/.kodi/userdata/ |
| **Windows** | %APPDATA%\\Kodi\\userdata |
| **Windows Portable** | <_Install location chosen by you_\>\\portable\_data\\userdata\\ |
| **Windows via Microsoft Store** | %LOCALAPPDATA%\\Packages\\XBMCFoundation.Kodi\_4n2hpmxwrvr6p\\LocalCache\\Roaming\\Kodi\\ |
| **Windows Xbox** | %LOCALAPPDATA%\\Packages\\XBMCFoundation.Kodi\_4n2hpmxwrvr6p\\LocalCache\\Roaming\\Kodi\\ |
**Note:** In some Android setups the path may be slightly different to the one stated above.
Note: if you use the Keymap Editor addon for Kodi, you need to append these new XML lines above inside the XML file generated by this addon, **not** in keyboard.xml. In March of 2015, the file generated by Keymap Editor is called "gen.xml".
4If Kodi is already running then restart it so that the changes take effect.5**Note:** This step is not required for Kodi v14 and higher.
Go into Kodi and then [Settings -> System -> Input devices](https://kodi.wiki/view/Settings/System#Input_devices "Settings/System")
and enable **Remote control sends keyboard presses**. This will allow your arrow keys to use the on-screen keyboard even though Kodi thinks your remote is a keyboard already.
Filter instead of jump
----------------------
You can also use FilterSMS instead of JumpSMS in the above keymap. This will filter out titles that don't match the letters being entered.
For example, typing "STAR" will filter out anything that doesn't start with those letters, leaving behind entries like "Star Wars", "Star Trek", "Stargate", etc.
Note for Imon remotes users
---------------------------
* Some Imon remotes, such as the Pad, and perhaps other remotes, have numeric buttons that do not send keys like “one”, “two”, etc. Neither they do output key-codes from the numeric pad of a keyboard. What they do is send key-codes from the keys Under the function keys (F1, F2, etc), meaning: 1,2,3, etc. The problem on some system is : they send the keyboard’s lowercase (unshifted) characters for the 1,2,3, etc, keys. For example, if you have a French AZERTY keyboard, the remote's numeric keys will be understood by Kodi as "&锑(-è\_çà)". As a result, the XML lines above need to be changed.
* Using the Keymap Editor addon, it should be possible to press the remote buttons and have the button's output registered. But in some cases it is not possible or not handy, so it is sometimes better to use some real keyboard key codes. In the following method, we do not count on the remote's IR emitted key codes, but on regular keyboard keystrokes.
* Use the Keymap Editor addon to note which key-code Kodi gets when typing the keys from the second row of the keyboard. Go to Keymap Editor > edit > global > virtual keyboard > and for each number, type the corresponding numeric key on the keyboard (not the numpad).
* Open the gen.xml file, generated by the Keymap Editor addon. Following the instructions above, it should include the XML lines above for the T9 ability. Edit the lines like Number0 and replace them by the codes you got from the Keymap Editor addon. For example : Number0 .
