* While | * While Kodi does not have [[w:Adobe Flash|Flash]] video support directly, very often videos can be extracted from the Flash video stream/file container. Some sites also have non-flash video streams that can be accessed from within Kodi. Sometimes these streams/files can be accessed by using a [[STRM]] file, while others are more complicated and need an add-on to access the content. For example, there is an add-on for [[Hulu]] and Amazon Prime video services (see Bluecop's add-on repo for both). Be sure to check out [[:Category:Video add-ons]] and the Kodi forums to see what is currently available. | ||
