How to set up Kodi?

Kodi

After having made a successful Kodi installation on our system, a of the first drawbacks they usually have some is that the application is in English so not everyone likes this.

As well in this little tutorial we will see the way of how to install pluginto our multimedia center and some additional settings.

How to change Kodi language?

For change to Spanish Kodi we must go to the application settings:

Kodi change language

Here we will see a list of options, the one that interests us is the option of Regional> Language:

Kodi change language 1

We just have to look for the language of our preference and wait for it to download the translation packages and with that we already have Kodi with another language.

How to add multimedia content to Kodi?

Of the most basic aspects To handle Kodi and obviously it is necessary to add our multimedia content to be able to enjoy it in our entertainment center.we direct you to the Kodi settings:

Kodi

Now we go to "Media Settings"> Library:

Add media to Kodi

Y We will see that it offers us three options to add content, Videos, Pictures and Music.

Add media to Kodi 1

Here the most advisable thing is to have each type of content separately in a folder or partition, one for having more order and the other to facilitate the task of adding the content to Kodi.

Once the type of content that we are going to add to Kodi has been chosen, we click on it, a window will open where we will click on search, then a search engine will open where we will use it to find the folders where we have our content .

Add media to Kodi 2

We select it and with it Kodi will begin to add all the content of that folder and of the type that we selected to our media library.

Change Kodi resolution?

If you don't like the full screen resolution that Kodi uses or you want the application to run in another resolution or mode, We must go to the settings section and in the System Configuration option.

Change Kodi resolution

A list of options will be displayed to us, others are interested in the "Screen", we will see something like this, here we only select the appropriate settings for our need.

Change resolution of Kodi 1

  • We can select if it runs in full screen or in windowed mode.
  • In case of having more than one screen connected to which screen Kodi will be shown when it is opened, if we want the other screens to be white when Kodi is launched.
  • What screen resolution will Kodi use when it is launched.

And in the 3D options here they are personal since each one has different hardware so I leave this section out.

How to install addons on Kodi?

To add add-ons to Kodi, we have those that Kodi provides us directly from its repertoire, although there are other very good ones, for this we must enable the installation of third-party addons.

Add addon to Kodi

For this We go to the main Kodi screen and in the list that we have on the left side we look for the add-ons option, being inside we will see in the upper right part a gear we click on it:

Add addon to Kodi 1

It will take us to the settings section of the add-ons, now we are going to enable the unknown sources.

Add addon to Kodi 2

Once this is done, we return to the previous screen and now we are going to click on this other icon:

Add addon to Kodi 3

Here nI will display this list, where it offers us several ways to add accessoriesThe most common is when adding a repository using a url that is usually provided by the creator of the addon.

Add addon to Kodi 6

The other one, which is practically the same as all of them, is through a zip file, all Kodi add-ons are usually distributed by this means, so I personally think that it is the one that you are going to use the most.

Add addon to Kodi 4

If we do it by this means, it will ask us to find the zip of the add-on, select it and it will be installed.

Now if you are going to do it from the repository, it will display the addons by categories, and here you will have to navigate and find what you like.
