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.
1 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
2 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
