    You can disable auto play in the account settings. I needed to login on the website to do that but it works on my TV now.

      That’s fair, but for awhile that setting only worked on desktop, and various apps still may or may not respect the setting. I’ve never encountered someone who enjoys this being on be default.

        That could be the case. Guess I’m lucky my old ass TV seems to respect the setting.

      Same. Although it’s (at least on my TV) profile-specific. Regardless if it’s all on the same account.

    Just set up my living room Linux pc with Kodi and got all my shows and movies in one nice spot all organized with a beautiful ui. Kodi has many themes, extensions and cool stuff like controller support and the connectivity to other software like jellyfin to stream locally.

    Highly recommend it 🏴‍☠️

      I wish Kodi had a better interface for playing YouTube videos. Searching and finding a video to watch with that UI is terrible.

        Didn’t know that Kodi could play YouTube videos. I just downloaded all of Dragon Ball Z Abridged and set it up like a show 😆

        If you want a great experience with YouTube I can highly recommend the freetube app. It’s worked flawlessly so far on my Linux setup. Just needs updates occasionally like everything else.

        If you want a really beautiful experience with Kodi I can highly recommend the “Copacetic” skin.
