FWIW I have a systemd unit, /etc/systemd/system/docker-kodi.service, that keeps Kodi alive. If I reboot or turn of Kodi via the power menu, it will come right back up. Hopefully that will be useful?

Can I ask, as I see you also use ALSA for audio, what your audio setup is?
I'm having an issue, with 5.1 audio over HDMI, where my center and LFE channels are swapped.
It seems like the kodi-docker container goes straight for the hardware output and bypasses any remapping I've attempted with asound.conf, but I have this issue running Kodi as standard also so I'm just wondering if you have encountered similar?
I think I could fix it with pulseaudio but I'd rather not have the extra layer if its not necessary.

Hi,

I wanted to ask you if it is possible to have LibreElec in your docker
Sorry for grammatical errors, use an online translator

Did you ever resolve this? I too would like to be able to trigger a display output and swap containers between displays.

Does this still work?

I installed x11docker and that seems okay, at least at the most basic level. Then I try to do --build to build the image:
 

~$ x11docker --build erichough/kodi

Edit: it looks like it's 404-ing on the docker file.

Does anyone actually have a working docker setup with kodi currently? Especially a one using GBM? If so could you copy me your configs?

So after weeks trying to get this running on Ubuntu I switched to Debian and that seems to work. As I felt there are little to none working examples out there, here my setup.
It works on a command line only machine, i.e., my NAS, TV is connected via HDMI
I could not get it running yet with an unprivileged user, so the user creation does nothing so far.

Dockerfile in kodi subdirectory:

Docker compose, can just be started with "docker compose up -d". Of course needs adapted network and paths.

@chris42 - looks like the forum software didn't like the code snippets, so I've transferred them to the paste site for you.

I think I got everything for each, but can you please double-check.

Apparently yes. Thanks for fixing it. Got distracted before I could check back. I think in the 2nd snippet you did not separate of the entrypoint.sh from the compose file.
Otherwise it looks good
