Hi all and happy new year 😄
I started to work on a Kodi package to turn your YNH home server into a media centre (if plugged into a TV): [https://github.com/scith/kodi\_ynh](https://github.com/scith/kodi_ynh)
Any potential users out there?
The package is not working yet. Feel free to contribute:
- Need to install Kodi as kodi user, not as root (perhaps compile from source?)
- Autoactivate the web interface and make a proper nginx configuration file
- Use Chorus web interface instead of default (suggestion)
- Move userdata folder and make a proper backup/restore script
- Etc…
Cheers

Hello, yes I’m really interested in !
I’m trying to install it on my RPI2 (Raspbian Weezhy - YuNoHost) but I’m facing a first issue which I had not thought : Kernel seems to be build up without sound support…
I installed alsa-base and I got the following message from /dev/sndstat file :
```
Sound Driver:3.8.1a-980706 (ALSA emulation code)
Kernel: Linux raspberrypi 4.1.13-v7+ #826 SMP PREEMPT Fri Nov 13 20:19:03 GMT 2015 armv7l
Config options: 0
Installed drivers:
Type 10: ALSA emulation
Card config:
bcm2835 ALSA
Audio devices: NOT ENABLED IN CONFIG
Synth devices: NOT ENABLED IN CONFIG
Midi devices: NOT ENABLED IN CONFIG
Timers:
7: system timer
Mixers: NOT ENABLED IN CONFIG
```
Which hw platform and YuNoHost install do you use ?
Why the kernel config for RPI2 doesn’t have audio config enabled by default though the hw has a sound card ?
I think it should be activated. I hope I could get it with a simple kernel update via normal channel (and not to compile my own one).

Good question… I am testing in a VM at the moment. My Raspberry does not have YunoHost but Raspbian Wheezy and Kodi is running fine on it.
I would not recommend installing the package in a non-testing environment at the moment, it is not working.
Perhaps your issue on RPI2 is due to the YunoHost Raspberry image? Try perhaps raising the issue there: [Building a new image for raspberry debian jessie - fr - en](https://forum.yunohost.org/t/building-a-new-image-for-raspberry-debian-jessie-fr-en/1101) ?

Hi everybody,
This post seems to be outdated but I recently install Kodi on my YunoHost Raspberry Pi with the apt-get install method.
But I want to create a package for Kodi.
I see that scith has already start to work on that but the last commit was pushed on 2016 0\_o
So scith, my question is: Do you work on Kodi at this date, or it’s a former project of you.
Can I create my own kodi\_ynh and create an associated thread on the forum or maybe you don’t want ?
Sorry for my english
Sylvain

Hi, I do not work on the package anymore. I didn’t succeed
Feel free to make your own, but please use the example template instead of adapting my outdated scripts.
Im still interested in the app so I can test 🙂

Hi,
Thanks for your reply 😉
I think that I will create my own thread on the forum to be clear for everyone.
