Login at Kodi Home

Apache is configured not to give directory listing, to create index.html I used command 'tree -H . > index.html'. Now I can point my browser to this subdirectory in server and play MP4 files. It is OK when using a PC, but I haven't figured out how to play these files with Kodi. I did search the Wiki, but ... it certainly is possible, right? Do I have to install some add-on?

parsing of html sources in kodi is essentially hand tailored to common http server index pages. If your "tree -H . > index.html" doesnt create a "standard" html index page, it wont be parsed, and therefore no items will be found.

The example layouts of index files that are supported can be found here https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/tree/master...pdirectory

Thanks for reply! This is the top of the index.html, you see anything wrong with it?

Code:
<!DOCTYPE html>

<html>

<head>

 <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
