== Language code support on MKV files ==
The MKV video format supports IETF BCP 47 language code standard, this allows you to have audio / subtitles tracks with language and region code subtag (or other types of subtags).
Kodi does not officially support the IETF BCP 47 format, therefore all tracks with languages defined with subtags (for example region: "pt-BR") will be always identified with the primary language code (so: "pt"), it will result in the GUI language list not being able to distinguish between language variants.

{{note|Language code override for Kodi v20 and above:}}
A way to fix the Kodi language code detection problem is open with a video editor software your MKV file (e.g. mkvtoolnix), then for each audio / subtitle track that use the IETF BCP 47 language code, copy the same language code string to the track title field (or track name field, depends from the video editor used), if the track title already contains text, you can insert the language code at the end of the text and optionally wrap the language code with round brackets. This will allow to Kodi to read the full language code string to override the default one. <ref>https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/21776</ref>

Subtitles

2022-12-10T13:02:44Z

MYnDstrEAm: /* Manually downloaded external subtitle files */ It works basically the same for using manually downloaded external audio track files.

{{mininav|[[Video library]] {{l2| [[Settings]] }}|[[Video playback]] {{l2| [[Settings/Player|Player]] }} }}
<section begin="intro" />Kodi supports both stand-alone subtitle and embedded subtitles. Most major subtitle formats are supported. Kodi can also search and download subtitles directly from full screen playback. <section end="intro" />

== Supported formats ==

Text-based subtitle formats supported:
* SubRip/SRT
* VPlayer
* SAMI
* MPL2
* MicroDVD
* SubStation Alpha (or Sub Station Alpha) known as SSA/ASS
* Closed caption EIA-608/EIA-708
* Timed text/TX3G
* WebVTT {{note|New on Kodi 20}}

Image-based subtitle formats supported:
* VobSub (idx/sub)
* PGS (Presentation Graphic Stream Subtitle)
* SUP (Subtitle bitmap image of DVD and Blu-ray)

== Changing subtitle settings during playback ==
[[File:Estuary-OSD-video-subtitle-selection.png|500px|right|thumb|The audio options are found under the gear icon.]]
{{main|Video playback}}
Various subtitle settings can be changed or they turned On/Off (default is on) via the [[Video_playback#Video_Player_OSD|OSD (On Screen Display)]] while watching a movie by selecting the subtitle menu or audio options.

{{note|To make Kodi '''turn off''' subtitles by default: While playing a video, bring up the on screen display and select the audio options -> Turn off "subtitles" -> scroll down and select "save as default for all videos".}}
{{-}}

=== Settings details ===
[[File:Video Playback OSD 04.jpg|right|500px]]
{{#lst:Video playback|OSD subs}}

== Additional settings ==

=== Main settings ===
{{See also|Settings/Player/Language#Subtitles}}

=== Adjusting subtitles position ===
The position of the subtitles can be adjusted vertically (but not horizontally) in the [[Settings/System/Display#Calibration|Video Calibration]] screen, you can also configure the way that they are displayed though the [[Settings/Player/Language#Subtitles|Subtitles Settings]]. 
'''Note:''' This does not apply to DVD subtitles as the DVD itself defines their location.

== Subtitle downloader ==
{{Main|HOW-TO:Set_up_subtitle_services}}

* <code>ActivateWindow(subtitlesearch)</code> can be bound to a remote button using [[keymaps]] in order to quickly bring up the subtitle search window.

== Manually downloaded external subtitle files ==
To use stand-alone subtitle files with video files, put them in the same folder as the video file or alternatively go to the [[Settings/Player/Language#Download_Services|Subtitles Settings]] and set a Custom Subtitle Directory. You can also choose to manually browse for the subtitle file via the [[Video_playback#Video_Player_OSD|OSD (On Screen Display)]]. You can configure the way that they are displayed through the [[Settings/Player/Language#Subtitles|Subtitles Settings]], and you can adjust where they are displayed onscreen through the [[Settings/System/Display#Calibration|Video Calibration Screen]].

The subtitle and video files must have the same name, for example:
'''Video File:''' The Matrix.avi
'''Subtitle:''' The Matrix.srt

=== Compressed subtitles ===
Kodi also supports compressed VobSub subtitles. Please note that the subtitles inside the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rar RAR] archive still need to have the same name as the video file and requires the rar add-on being installed: See: [[Add-on:RAR_archive_support|RAR archive support]].
'''Video File:''' The Matrix.avi
'''Subtitle:''' The Matrix.rar
Where The Matrix.rar containins the VobSub-file ''The Matrix.sub'' and the ''The Matrix.idx'' VobSub index-file that has been compressed with [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rar RAR].
If you want Kodi to automatically turn on packed subtitles, you have to turn on the '''Search for Subtitles in RARs''' option in [[Settings/Player/Language#Subtitles|Subtitles Settings]].

=== Using multi language subtitles ===
Kodi supports the use of more than one external subtitle. This of course is most useful when you have more than one subtitle file, (eg. for more than language).

To use this functionality you need to rename the video file and subtitle files as follows:

'''Video File:''' The Matrix.avi
'''Subtitle 1:''' The Matrix.English.srt
'''Subtitle 2:''' The Matrix.French.srt
'''Subtitle 3:''' The Matrix.German.srt

The dot after the filename but before the extension specifies the language (you can use anything here, mix numbers and and letters or just use one or the other).
 

You can even mix subtitle formats, eg:

'''Video File:''' Movie Name (2006).avi
'''Subtitle 1:''' Movie Name (2006).Chinese.idx
'''Subtitle 1:''' Movie Name (2006).Chinese.sub
'''Subtitle 2:''' Movie Name (2006).Japanese.idx
'''Subtitle 2:''' Movie Name (2006).Japanese.sub
'''Subtitle 3:''' Movie Name (2006).English.srt
'''Subtitle 4:''' Movie Name (2006).French.smi
'''Subtitle 5:''' Movie Name (2006).German.ssa

It works basically the same for using [[External audio tracks|manually downloaded external audio track files]].

== Advanced options ==

=== Adding fonts ===
You can add additional fonts to add support for your language and to customise your style. Your additional fonts can be stored in the Kodi folder at <code>Kodi/media/Fonts/</code>.

The supported font format type is TTF {{note|On Kodi 20 - Add support for OTF font type}}.

{{note|On Kodi 20 - Please note that each time you add or remove fonts you will have to restart Kodi, to allow the font cache to be rebuilt and show fonts in the settings.}}

For additional info see '''media''' section on [[Kodi_data_folder]] page.

=== Increasing the delay range for subtitle adjustment ===
{{main|advancedsettings.xml}}
If you don't already have an [[advancedsettings.xml]] file, it's very simple to make. Kodi uses this file for advanced settings and features that normal users shouldn't modify without first knowing what they do, as well as for experimental features, etc.

# Create a '''plain text file''' (no rich text formatting, don't use .doc, etc) and save it as '''advancedsettings.xml'''. Make sure that the file extension is ".xml" and '''not''' ".txt" or ".xml.txt".
# Cut and paste this into your new plain text file:
#: <syntaxhighlight lang=xml enclose="div">
<advancedsettings>
<video>
<subsdelayrange>10</subsdelayrange> 
<audiodelayrange>10</audiodelayrange> 
</video>
</advancedsettings>
</syntaxhighlight>
# Change the two values between the tags to fit your situation.
# Save this file in your '''[[Userdata|userdata folder]]'''
#: ''If you have an existing file, make sure the <video></video> tags, and settings we'll add between them, are between the main <advancedsettings></advancedsettings> tags.''

=== Using Forced Subtitles ===
Many movies have subtitles encoded for secondary languages spoken during the film – when these are added to the movie, they are known as forced subtitles and are always visible (despite not being hard encoded). Kodi (since v13 Gotham) recognizes and respects the forced flag for showing subtitles (even if subtitles are turned off by default, the forced flag will trigger them being turned on). This requires that the user have set the default languages in Settings in order to function properly. If there are multiple forced subtitles, Kodi will select the forced subtitles that match the default playback language.

; Internal Forced Subtitles
If you are using an .mkv file, the forced subtitles may be included in the file when originally encoded. If so, Kodi will automatically recognize that they are present and will display them at the appropriate times. If they are not included, or if the header was not properly edited, you will need to use external subtitles.

; External Forced Subtitles
If you are using anything other than an .mkv file, or if your mkv doesn’t have the forced subtitles properly included, the forced flag can be easily added to your external subtitles. Following the same naming conventions listed above, you can then append the forced flag to the end of the subtitle file name. The forced flag can be either upper, lower or mixed case in the filename and can use a “.” (dot), “ “ (space) or “-“ (dash) to separate them from the name of the movie and language of the subtitles. IE:
<syntaxhighlight lang=xml enclose="div">
Movie Name (2006).English.Forced.srt
Movie Name (2006).en.forced.srt
Movie Name (2006).German.Forced.srt
Movie Name (2006)-Swedish-Forced.srt
</syntaxhighlight>

External audio tracks

2022-12-10T12:53:58Z

MYnDstrEAm: In Kodi you can provide audio tracks as separate files in the same directory as the video

In Kodi you can provide audio tracks as separate files in the same directory as the video. The external audio track files need to be named like <video name>.<ISO 639-1 language code>.<extension> otherwise they currently aren't detected by Kodi.

For example:

'''Video File:''' The Matrix (1999)/The Matrix.mkv
'''Audio File:''' The Matrix (1999)/The Matrix.ac3

This is useful if you have a video file that does not have the desired language in its available audio channel/s so you only need to retrieve the much smaller audio track. Thereby, video files can be smaller and be shared better without a lot of duplication. If a video does not have your language in its channels, you only need the matching audio track.

Supported extensions should be:

.nsv|.m4a|.flac|.aac|.strm|.pls|.rm|.rma|.mpa|.wav|.wma|.ogg|.mp3|.mp2|.m3u|.gdm|.imf|.m15|.sfx|.uni|.ac3|.dts|.cue|.aif|.aiff|.wpl|.ape|.mac|.mpc|.mp+|.mpp|.shn|.zip|.rar|.wv|.dsp|.xsp|.xwav|.waa|.wvs|.wam|.gcm|.idsp|.mpdsp|.mss|.spt|.rsd|.sap|.cmc|.cmr|.dmc|.mpt|.mpd|.rmt|.tmc|.tm8|.tm2|.oga|.url|.pxml|.tta|.rss|.wtv|.mka|.tak|.opus|.dff|.dsf|.m4b

It works very similar to [[subtitles#Manually downloaded external subtitle files|external subtitle files]].

If you want to see all your videos that have audio tracks of a specific language, you can make a smart playlist under Videos that filters for the audio track language (this is why you should label the audio tracks if you add to video video files any as described below).

== Alternative ==
Alternatively, you could also use <code>ffmpeg</code> to add the audio track to the video file itself with a command like this (here the default and only audio track is labelled as German language and the second audio track that we add is labelled as English language; adjust the command as needed):

<code>ffmpeg -i "/dir/video.mkv" -i "/dir2/audio.ac3" -map 0 -map 1:a -c:v copy -shortest -metadata:s:a:0 language=ger -metadata:s:a:0 title="GER" -metadata:s:a:1 language=eng -metadata:s:a:1 title="ENG" "/dir/video2.mkv"</code>

Game management

2021-07-25T13:36:42Z

MYnDstrEAm: /* Game Launchers / Game Browsers */ Lutris

{{mininav| [[Games]]}}

= Game library =
Kodi does not have a game-library yet, although one is in development. Currently, games are managed using a basic file browser, and artwork is not yet supported.

To browse local or network files, the source can be added to the Games window. This is similar to how videos and music are added to Kodi. For more information on adding sources, see [[Adding video sources]].

===Game Launchers / Game Browsers===
Game Launchers / Game Browsers (Python script addons for Kodi) can provide a fuller game experience similar to that of a game-library, although configuration is sometimes required.

Note! The versions of Game Launchers / Game Browsers available in Kodi Addon Repository can be outdated. You can find the latest versions in the forum:
* Advanced Emulator Launcher - https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=287826
* Rom Collection Browser - https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=70115
* Lutris - https://github.com/RobLoach/lutris-kodi-addon (for GNU/Linux only)

= Game add-ons =
Kodi Gaming (RetroPlayer and Kodi Game API) window supports starting/running both [[libretro]] emulator cores and stand-alone games or emulators that does not use the Libretro API.

===Emulator Cores===
:{{Main|Game add-ons|Libretro}}
Kodi's Game API in the Kodi has a Libretro wrapper which is 1:1 compatibility with the [[libretro]] API, so all libretro cores are valid game add-ons. [[Libretro]] itself is a well defined cross-platform interface to handle the communication between a frontend (Kodi with RetroPlayer) and an Emulator Core (e.g. nestopia).

= Troubleshooting =
If a source is added but no games appear, then you are missing emulators that support your files. This will be fixed when Kodi is able to install emulators from the add-on store.

Alternatively, you can use the latest (experimental) "build" from the lead Kodi developer working on Kodi Games features and functions. These builds are typically an unmodified version of Kodi, but with all emulators installed.

Latest (experimental) builds are available here: https://github.com/garbear/xbmc/releases

__TOC__
==Lutris==
Lutris is a game manager for GNU/Linux with support for most popular emulators, Wine and Steam. It can be integrated into Kodi with [https://github.com/RobLoach/lutris-kodi-addon the Lutris-Kodi addon].

==Other stand-alone game add-ons==
Stand-alone games or emulators that does not use the Libretro API.

Here will be a list of existing/ongoing and future/upcoming project for making new stand-alone game add-ons for Kodi:
* Project discussion: "NVIDIA Gamestream in Kodi" http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=220421
* Proposal: NVIDIA GameStream http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=220965
* GitHub repo: https://github.com/kodi-game/game.moonlight

==Libretro cores==
:{{Main|Libretro|Porting Libretro cores to game add-ons}}
The Game API in the [[Kodi Game|Kodi Game branch]] has a Libretro wrapper which is 1:1 compatibility with the libretro API, so all libretro cores are valid game add-ons. Libretro itself is a well defined interface to handle the communication between a frontend (Kodi with RetroPlayer) and an Emulator Core (e.g. nestopia).

Here is a list of Libretro cores, of which most already have been [[Porting Libretro cores to game add-ons|ported]] into game add-ons for Kodi, at least as an initial port, (you can see the status of each libretro core in the table below):

If something in the core matrix needs to be changed, leave a message in the forum.

== BIOS requirements ==
Some libretro cores require BIOS files to work, and those BIOSes must be placed in the system folder (with each BIOS being a binary file). For now you will need to find those BIOS files by yourself and and copy them to your system yourself as it may not be fully legal for Team-Kodi to provide them bundled with each libretro core that needs them. The reason for this is that these BIOSes are usually considered to be in an legal gray-zone and can be a little difficult to aquire, at least legally. For example, since all PlayStation emulators, like Beetle PSX & PCSX ReARMed, require a closed source BIOS file to work, and its BIOS file must be placed in the system folder on your emulator software (libretro cores in this case).

* See: https://github.com/libretro/Lakka/wiki/BIOSes and and http://www.lakka.tv/doc/Accessing-Lakka-filesystem/ (or see: http://github.com/libretro/Lakka/wiki/ROMs-and-BIOSes ). You should find the most up-to-date information here https://github.com/libretro/libretro-super/tree/master/dist/info and here https://github.com/libretro/libretro-database/blob/master/dat/BIOS%20-%20Merged.dat

=== BIOS requirement table ===
The table below lists all the required BIOSes which some emulators requires for each each emulated system, so if a systems BIOS is not listed here then it means that it should not require a BIOS file.

{|
| Warning! Linux is a case sensitive system. Please name BIOS files exactly according to this table.

:Note that most of these BIOSes are not reverse engineered releases but binary ROMs ripped from the EEPROM inside of an actual game console system hardware, so they are proprietary binary blobs (precompiled software binaries) which might still be under copyright depending on the console age and origins. It may be that some of those BIOSes can be seen as fair use since these game consoles are no longer sold and there is probably no commercial value in them, but that is something that the XBMC Foundation needs to talk about with attorneys before being able to distributing such BIOS files as resource add-ons or bundled with each libretro core in an official repository.

=== What is a BIOS? ===
A BIOS (Basic Input Output System) is the startup code of a system and is required for certain emulators to work.

=== Where do I place the BIOS files? ===
You will need to place them into the System Directory (linux example for pcsx bios files: ~/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/game.libretro.pcsx-rearmed/system/ ).

Alternatively, you can place the into your Content Directory next to the game you are going to play.

Remember, since Linux is a case sensitive system, you have to rename the BIOS files according to this table so that the libretro cores will be able to find the BIOS files.

=== Why isn’t my BIOS working? ===
# Make sure the BIOS files are placed into the correct directory (see above).
# Make sure they are named correctly so the core can identify them.
# Make sure it’s the correct version/region of a BIOS.
# Make sure your files are not corrupted (bad source, broken download, etc.).
# Make sure to check the log for any errors.

== FAQ ==

=== Beetle PSX ===
Controller not working in some games?

Some PSX games don't recognize correctly Analog PSX controller. To solve the issue go to Setting > Adavanced Settings and disable "DualShock Analog button toggle" setting. Your Gamepad should be then recognized correctly.

Debian

MYnDstrEAm: installation

== Installation ==
To install a new version of Kodi on Debian 10 (buster) stable you need to install it from backports like so: <code>sudo apt install -t buster-backports kodi</code>

== Uploading Kodi ==
Here are a some notes related to uploading Kodi to Debian and having it synced to Ubuntu.

=== Uploads to Development Suites ===

The guide for uploading any package (such as XBMC) to Debian is the [http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/maint-guide/ Debian New Maintainer's Guide]. There is also some tips on best packaging practics, found in Chapter 6 of the Debian Developer's Reference (see http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/best-pkging-practices.html).

Any package that is in Debian can be synced to Ubuntu. That process is described at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SyncRequestProcess.

All packages are normally uploaded to either the "unstable" suite, or the "experimental" suite of Debian. Generally, whenever a new release of Kodi is done, the suite to upload these new Kodi packages is the "unstable" suite. Packages uploaded to unstable enter a period where they stay in unstable to get tested. Once this time where it's in unstable ends, the packages are migrated to the "testing" suite where it will be shipped in the next release of Debian. So long as no [http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/developer-duties.html#rc-bugs release critical bugs] exist for the Kodi package in the [http://www.debian.org/Bugs/ Debian Bug Tracking System], the packages will be migrated to testing. If release critical bugs do exist, a new upload should be made that fixes these bugs.

'''NOTE''' that if any release critical bugs are found in the version of Kodi that has been migrated to testing, it runs the risk of getting removed from testing altogether. Thus, any release critical bugs should be handled promptly.

For other packages such as git snapshots, beta releases, and release candidates, the packages should be uploaded to the "experimental" suite. Packages in the "experimental" suite do not get migrated to any other suite (i.e. they are not migrated to unstable or testing). This suite is typically used for packages which are snapshots, beta releases, and release candidates.

Sync of packages from Debian to Ubuntu are automatically done at the beginning of any Ubuntu release cycle. At some point during the release cycle, the automatic sync is stopped, so a request has to be made to sync any new package from Debian to Ubuntu.

There are times where bugs need to be fixed for versions of Kodi packages that have migrated to testing. However, packages are never uploaded directly to the "testing" suite in Debian. Attempts to upload to testing are automatically rejected. Instead, packages need to be uploaded to unstable and the [http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html#s-f-Urgency Urgency] field in the debian/changelog file needs to be set appropriately to get the new packages into "testing" quicker.

=== Uploads to Release Suites ===

Packages can be uploaded to the "stable" suite in Debian, although these kind of uploads can only be for fixing security related bugs. The Debian Developer's Reference has a section describing [http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/pkgs.html#bug-security how to handle security related bugs]. For Ubuntu, the page describing security related uploads to Ubuntu is found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/SponsorsQueue.

For other cases where an upload to stable is desired, the package should instead be uploaded to [http://backports-master.debian.org/ Debian Backports]. The page describing how an upload to backports is found at http://backports-master.debian.org/Contribute/. For Ubuntu backports, the page describing uploads to backports for Ubuntu is found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBackports.

External players

2021-07-25T10:32:48Z

MYnDstrEAm: don't hide xbmc by default (this breaks it on Linux and it's not useful or the default behavior), file location for Linux

{{cleanup}}
<section begin="intro" />While the built in video and audio players are capable, out of the box, to handle a huge variety of content, users might find themselves in need of using a different playback software but still using Kodi for scraping and organizing content. Reasons might include improved post-processing abilities, DRM restricted media that requires a specific player (such as encrypted Blu-ray discs), special player-specific features, etc. Kodi has a powerful tool to achieve this, the '''external player'''. The current method involves the configuration of a '''playercorefactory.xml''' file.<section end="intro" />

== Set up ==
Kodi comes with a default playercorefactory.xml file, located under the ''Kodi/System'' folder (where Kodi is the chosen installation folder).

To customize playback behaviour, users need to create an extra playercorefactory.xml file inside their '''[[userdata]]''' folder. 

Let's start with an example playercorefactory.xml file:
<syntaxhighlight lang=xml enclose="div">
<playercorefactory>
<players>
<player name="MPC-HC" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">
<filename>C:\Program Files\MPC-HC\mplayerc.exe</filename>
<args>"{1}" /fullscreen /close</args>
<hidexbmc>false</hidexbmc>
<hideconsole>false</hideconsole>
<warpcursor>none</warpcursor>
</player>
</players>
<rules action="prepend">
<rule filetypes="mkv" filename=".*720p.*" player="MPC-HC"/>
</rules>
</playercorefactory>
</syntaxhighlight>

The <code><players/></code> node (i.e. <code><players>...<players/></code>) defines all the different players that you wish to add to Kodi. Inside you can have any number of <code><player/></code> nodes, defining as many external players as you wish (the builtin ones being '''dvdplayer''' and '''paplayer''', you can also use the aliases ''audiodefaultplayer'', ''videodefaultplayer'', ''videodefaultdvdplayer'').

The player <code>name</code> attribute can be anything you like and will appear in the [[Media:Playusing.png|"Play using..." menu]], accessible from the [[Basic_controls#Context_Menu|context menu]].
For an external player the <code>type</code> attribute ''must'' be '''ExternalPlayer'''. The other possible values being ''dvdplayer'' and ''paplayer'', although there's no point defining one of those as they already exist and don't accept any configuration. The <code>audio</code> and <code>video</code> (boolean; true/false) attributes when <code>true</code> will cause the player to ''always'' appear in the "Play using..." menu even if you don't define any rules for the player, or no rules match the currently selected media item (e.g. video file) for the player.
You could, for instance, define a player with <code>video="true"</code> and then ''not'' tie it to any specific rule, thus creating some sort of "safety net", always available in the context menu, should you ever need it.

The only ''required'' node for a player with <code>type</code> ''ExternalPlayer'' is the <code><filename/></code> node, this should contain the path of the external player executable. The other, optional, nodes are

{| class="prettytable"
|-
! Name
! Value
! Use
|-
! args
|
| Arguments to pass to the external player executable. 
If this contains the token '''{0}''' then this is replaced with the full URI of the item to be played (note that this is, in many cases, Kodi-specific and your external player won't understand it). A '''{1}''' token is also replaced with the URI of the item to be played, but with the following differences 
* For rar and zip files '''{1}''' is the path of the archive and '''{2}''' will be the relative path to the file in the archive
* On win32 smb-URIs (smb://host/path) are converted into UNCs (\\host\path) 
* For LiveTV streams/files the pvr:// type url is not translated and {1} still returns the Kodi-specific URI which will not be interpretable by the external player
'''NOTE you should surround these tokens with double-quotes (e.g. '''"{1}"''') unless you know what you're doing and have a good reason not to, as they may contain spaces.''' 
If none of these tokens are present then it's equivalent to having '''"{1}''' at the end.
|-
! hidexbmc
| style="white-space:nowrap" | '''false''' ''(default)'' '''true'''
| whether to hide the Kodi window whilst the external player is active
|-
! hideconsole
| style="white-space:nowrap" | '''false''' ''(default)'' '''true'''
| ''Win32 only'' - whether the external player process is started with the initial window hidden (useful for hiding the console when the external player is a batch file)
|-
! warpcursor
| style="white-space:nowrap" | '''none''' ''(default)'' '''topleft''' '''topright''' '''bottomleft''' '''bottomright'''
| ''Win32 only'' - whether and where to move the cursor to before the external player is launched
|-
! playcountminimumtime
| style="white-space:nowrap" | ''number of seconds''
| the time the extplayer process needs to run for before the item's playcount will be incremented (i.e. it will be marked as watched)
|-
! playonestackitem
| style="white-space:nowrap" | '''false''' ''(default)'' '''true'''
| whether playback should stop after playing one item that's part of a stack
|}

Once a user has defined one or more external player, they have the option of adding ''rules'' to customize ''which files'' are handled by ''which players''. The above example, for instance, defines the MPC-HC external player as the default player for MKV files with "720p" in their filename. <code>.*</code> before and after "720p" is a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_expression#Standards regular expression] (regex).
* <code>.</code> "Matches any single character."
* <code>*</code> "Matches the preceding element zero or more times." 
Together they mean "Matches any single character (.) zero or more times (*)".

A <code><rules/></code> node contains a set of rules. An (optional) <code>action</code> attribute can have a value of <code>prepend</code>, <code>append</code> or <code>overwrite</code> which specifies whether the rules should be prepended, appended (the default if no action is specified) or replace all existing rules. Appended rules will take precedence over default players (i.e. DVDPlayer for video and PAPlayer for audio) but not over Kodis builtin rules. '''[needs better/more complete explanation]'''

A <code><rule/></code> node compares its attributes against the attributes of a media item and if everything matches then the player names in the player attribute is the default player for the media item (you can still select another using the "Play using..." menu). The attributes are listed below. Order of <code><rule/></code>s is significant '''[needs clarification]''', the first match defines the player so order them from more-to-less specific.

<code><rule/></code>s can be nested with inner rules inheriting attributes from outer rules, with inner rules being checked before outer rules. For example:

<syntaxhighlight lang=xml enclose="div">
<rules action="prepend">
<rule video="true" player="wmplayer">
<rule dvd="true" player="dvdplayer"/>
<rule filetypes="mkv" player="VLC">
<rule filename=".*720.*|.*1080.*" player="MPC-HC"/>
</rule>
</rule>
</rules>
</syntaxhighlight>

says that all video should be played by wmplayer, except DVDs, that are played with (the builtin) dvdplayer, and .mkv files that are played with VLC, however .mkv files with "720{{"}} or "1080" in their names are played with MPC-HC (all assuming wmplayer, VLC and MPC-HC players are defined in the players section).

The following attributes can be used to build rules:
{| class="prettytable"
|-
! Attribute
! Type
! Value
|-
| internetstream || boolean
| when '''true''' the rule applies to internet streams
|-
| remote || boolean
| when '''true''' the rule applies to remote-only (non-local) media
|-
| audio || boolean
| when '''true''' the rule applies to audio-only media
|-
| video || boolean
| when '''true''' the rule applies to video media
|-
| dvd || boolean
| when '''true''' the rule applies to DVDs
|-
| dvdimage || boolean
| when '''true''' the rule applies to DVD images (iso)
|-
| dvdfile || boolean
| when '''true''' the rule applies to DVD folder structures
|-
| protocols || regexp
| when defined the rule applies to items whose (URI) protocol matches; as well as "real" protocols like daap, rtv, rtsp Kodi also uses the URI protocol for things like zip, rar etc.
|-
| filetypes || regexp
| when defined the rule applies to items whose file extension matches
|-
| mimetypes || regexp
| when defined the rule applies to items whose mime-type matches
|-
| filename || regexp
| when defined the rule applies to items whose filename matches
|-
| player || string
| the name of the player defined in the <players> section this rule invokes
|}
For the regexp attributes you can specify alike with a |-separator, e.g. '''mkv|avi|divx''' ("The choice operator matches either the expression before or the expression after the operator").

The following attributes are also available for video items with metadata (a.k.a. flagging):
{| class="prettytable"
|-
! Attribute
! Type
! Value
|-
| videocodec || regexp
| matched against the video codec so, a rule could used '''<nowiki>xvid|divx|div3|div4|div5</nowiki>'''
|-
| videoresolution || regexp
| matched against the video resolution, which will be one of '''480''', '''540''', '''720''' or '''1080'''
|-
| videoaspect || boolean
| matched against the video aspect ratio, which will be one of '''1.33''', '''1.66''', '''1.78''', '''1.85''', '''2.20''' or '''2.35'''
|-
| audiocodec || regexp
| matched against the audio codec, e.g. '''ac3<nowiki>|</nowiki>dts'''
|-
| audiochannels || regexp
| matched against the number of channels in the audio which will be an integer (i.e. '''6''' rather than '''5.1''')
|}

{{divbox|orange||'''Note:''' There's currently no way to get a resumpoint if an external player is in use. After a specific duration (which can be modified via the [[Advancedsettings.xml|advancedsettings.xml]]) the specific video will be marked as watched. But Kodi will not set a resumpoint for it.}}

== Examples ==
On Kodi for Android running on TI OMAP pandaboard I was able to take advantage of hw acceleration by changing /data/data/org.xbmc.kodi/cache/apk/assets/system/playercorefactory.xml to launch Gallery on mp4 files as follows:

=== Android ===
<syntaxhighlight lang=xml enclose="div">
<playercorefactory>
<players>

<player name="Gallery" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="true" video="true">
<filename>am</filename>
<args>start -n com.android.gallery3d/.app.MovieActivity -d {1}</args>
<hidexbmc>true</hidexbmc>
<hideconsole>true</hideconsole>
</player>
<player name="DVDPlayer" audio="true" video="true" />
</players>
<rules name="system rules">
<rule name="rtv" protocols="rtv" player="DVDPlayer" />
<rule name="hdhomerun/myth/mms/udp" protocols="hdhomerun|myth|cmyth|mms|mmsh|udp" player="DVDPlayer" />
<rule name="lastfm/shout" protocols="lastfm|shout" player="PAPlayer" />

<rule name="rtsp" protocols="rtsp" filetypes="!(rm|ra)" player="PAPlayer" />

<rule name="streams" internetstream="true">
<rule name="aacp/sdp" mimetypes="audio/aacp|application/sdp" player="DVDPlayer" />
<rule name="mp2" mimetypes="application/octet-stream" filetypes="mp2" player="PAPlayer" />
</rule>

<rule name="dvd" dvd="true" player="DVDPlayer" />
<rule name="dvdimage" dvdimage="true" player="DVDPlayer" />

<rule name="sdp/asf" filetypes="sdp|asf" player="DVDPlayer" />

<rule name="nsv" filetypes="nsv" player="DVDPlayer" />
<rule name="dgb" filetypes="*.mp4" player="Gallery"/>

<rule name="radio" filetypes="pvr" filename=".*/radio/.*" player="DVDPlayer" />
</rules>
</playercorefactory>
</syntaxhighlight>

I tested this only very lightly but it improved playback smoothness and obviously reduced cpu load. ymmv.

=== Ubuntu ===

{{divbox|orange||'''Note:''' The Ubuntu OS has a long-lasting NFS bug which prevents Kodi from playing files directly via its own internal NFS sources using an external video player. You will have to set up NFS mounts directly via the Ubuntu OS to have this work correctly.}}

In GNU/Linux the location of the file should be: <code>~/.kodi/userdata/playercorefactory.xml</code>

There are cross-platform standalone video players which are supported by Kodi. Hereunder are two of them. The Full-screen option has been added, otherwise you will have a windowed video player.

==== VLC ====
<syntaxhighlight lang=xml enclose="div">
<playercorefactory>
<players>
<player name="VLC" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">
<filename>/usr/bin/vlc</filename>
<args>--fullscreen "{1}"</args>
<hidexbmc>false</hidexbmc>
</player>
</players>
<rules action="prepend">
<rule video="true" player="VLC"/>
</rules>
</playercorefactory>
</syntaxhighlight>

==== MPV ====
<syntaxhighlight lang=xml enclose="div">
<playercorefactory>
<players>
<player name="MPV" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">
<filename>/usr/bin/mpv</filename>
<args>--fs=yes "{1}"</args>
<hidexbmc>false</hidexbmc>
</player>
</players>
<rules action="prepend">
<rule video="true" player="MPV"/>
</rules>
</playercorefactory>
</syntaxhighlight>
