Kodi lbry.tv Video Addon
#1
Hi there,

i hope its ok to ask here: I am looking for an kodi lbry.tv addon. I was using Google and found 2 (beta like?) addons, so i give it a try and ask here if anyone is already using one and can recommend it. I am happy for any hint or link to a working one.
I am using Kodi on an Pi. When googlin', i also saw that one of the plugins seems to be only able to "search" for videos, and then play it. It would be pretty nice if the addon would support "supscription activity", like the YouTube addon. The YouTube addon lists me the recent vidoes of all channels i follow and plays them one after one, pretty neat.
Anyone using lbry already with kodi here? Thanks for any hint.

There is a LBRY addon in KODI's repository (https://github.com/accumulator/plugin.video.lbry), it seems to need "lbrynet client" running by default. I tried to put the API server provided by lbry but it didn't work.
Anyone succeeded to making this plugin works ?
Seems like more and more Youtube creators are moving to LBRY.
Thanks

The official Lbry addon works well on the raspberry Pi using the Lbry video server addon I have cobbled together.

You need to install and start this addon on the pi itself and then afterwards run the official Kodi addon.
It is arm only so is only tested on the Raspberry pi 2&3, and it does take a minute or two for the server to get up and running.

Instead of the default local "http://localhost:5279" you enter https://api.lbry.tv/api/v1/proxy in the LBRY addon settings it should work also, just tested it out and it worked fine for me.

The Follow channel, Watch later, Download video and Search features all work well for me.

How are you creating your followed channels?

All I do is simply use Search to find the channel I want to follow, select one of the videos, bring up the context menu and
choose the option I want e.g. Watch Later, Follow Channel, Download or Add to Favorites.
Hope this helps ;-)

If you are using Kodi 19 (Matrix) you can now download the LBRY addon direct from the official repository and it is the updated version which has   "https://api.lbry.tv/api/v1/proxy" enabled by default, so it works "out of the box"

Thank you for the feedback.
Are you taking this into consideration?

For a few months now I have been unable to watch the recent videos on the @RobBraxmanTech channel on lbry/odysee on Kodi using the lbry addon on Kodi 19.4 on latest osmc. 
I hear the audio only. Anyone else having such issues?
