A whole new way to manage and view your media library.
The Emby for Kodi add-on combines the best of Kodi - ultra smooth navigation, beautiful UIs and playback of any file under the sun, and Emby - the most powerful open source multi-client media metadata indexer and server. You can now retire your MySQL setup in favor of a more flexible setup.
Synchronize your media on your Emby server to the native Kodi database, browsing your media at full speed, while retaining the ability to use other Kodi add-ons to enhance your experience. In addition, you can use any Kodi skin you'd like!
The add-on supports a hybrid approach. You can decide which Emby libraries to sync to the Kodi database. Other libraries and features are accessible dynamically, as a plugin listing.
