Adding videos to the library/Contents
Video library | Management | Custom video entries |
Need to add videos such as home movies or other videos that are not normally found by Kodi's scrapers? This page will show you a few solutions on adding custom videos, such as home movies, clips, special editions, and more.
JustUseTheFileName
To simply add videos to the library as movies without any special info you can install the JustUseTheFileName scraper: http://up.kibje.com/20130711/metadata.justUseFilename.org.zip
NFO files
Main page: NFO files
- Add NFO files for each file. For step-by-steps look at the additional guides below.
- Here's a basic/bare minimal example of an NFO file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <movie> <title>Some title</title> <originaltitle>Some title just in case - you most likely dont need this either</originaltitle> <sorttitle>It will sort by this title if you include it</sorttitle> <genre>HomeMovies</genre> <id>-1</id> </movie>
- Kodi will only look at your NFO files ONCE. To refresh see: Video library/Updating or removing videos#Refreshing the library
Filtering custom videos
- See: Custom home items
