I am trying to play my video's through kodi. I was able to setup my music with no problems. both my music and video's are in my music and video shared folders on a windows 10 machine. browsed to the music and played no problem mp3's and flac's. when i browse to the video folder it sees nothing. i have changed the security settings and added everyone to the folder and still when i browse to that folder through upnp it does not see any files. can some one help me, and no i will not covert over a 100 movies to another format.

When you say browsing to the video folder, how are you doing that? Using the file manager or the files mode under videos, or via the library or similar?
The first two should see just the files directly, but if you're trying to scrape movies using the music scraper then you almost certainly won't get anywhere.
Don't worry though, Kodi can play MP4 movies fine (that's the format I use for all mine).

MacOs 10.11.6 and KODI is not finding any mp4 files.
Any suggestions?

Seriously this is your answer
Rather than saying what the typical problem is you want me to provide a debug log where I have to edit out my user name and password
No thanks.
Is the software this crappy that that it will not find mp4 files
Thanks but I will find another solution.

Kodi has a built-in debug capability. This is provided exactly for this kind of problem report. So it is not unreasonable to ask a user to use the troubleshooting tool provided. Or we could throw out random suggestions to try that may or may not have anything to do with your issue and waste your time.

I think the OP has gone elsewhere. Not much point in posting any more help when he clearly doesn't want it.
