Why would you need to be root to start kodi ??
2019-01-20, 18:47
so i am just testing.
I have kodi installed on raspbian and use it without screen to play internet radio. So far i control it via ios app Sybu. However i am trying, without success to make an autoexec.py to start kodi with a specitic internet stream. And while playing with the syntax i needed to restart to see if it works. Thats why. Actually what does not work is an autoexec.py
this is the script
import xbmc
xbmc.executebuiltin("Playmedia(http://s3.sonicabroadcast.com:8805)")

sudo kodi start
Hi VisiAndy,
thank you for that command! Actually, following code lines work fine for me and my Raspberry (running Raspbian Buster).
Code:
sudo kodi start
sudo kodi stopMy only problem is that the command's action do not finish, means I do not get back to a new terminal command line.
I would like to start and stop Kodi with a Python script but the script gets stuck with the mentioned start command (same as in terminal).
I hope my question is not too “off topic”: Does somebody know how to avoid this behaviour or how to finish the start and stop action?
Thank you!

I use:
systemctl start kodi.service
systemctl stop kodi.service
on my install and command line comes back when its run.
systemctl start kodi.service
systemctl stop kodi.service
on my install and command line comes back when its run.

Thank you for the fast reply jeffski10!

Mmm. Not sure as for me the stop command above works fine and stops the app but admittedly this is not on a pi. As you are on a pi and sounds like a native install rather than Libreelec assume you are using sudo as well ?

@Larry Add You need to be more explicit about what you want to do, what you are doing, what's your environment (OS, etc).
if you start Kodi with a desktop icon or DE menu systemctl command won't work.
There are many ways to skin the cat here, but it is absolutely unclear to me what you are trying to achieve.
sudo systemctl stop kodi will work only if you start Kodi as a service with sudo systemctl start kodiif you start Kodi with a desktop icon or DE menu systemctl command won't work.
