Websocket and HTTP on same port - mbw2001 - 2017-07-02

Is there any reason Kodi requires two different ports for HTTP and for websockets? Most other services i use run both on the same port?

Having two different ports really just makes portforwarding and reverse proxying much more complicated to configure.

You can change the port in Kodi's web server settings in the Services section.

And how would that help with the issue?

This is a valid request, Websocket is designed to run on the same port as HTTP/S.

On a technical level the websocket implementation in Kodi shares a lot with telnet, including the port.
