VRT MAX Kodi add-on

plugin.video.vrt.nu is a Kodi add-on for watching all live video streams and all video-on-demand content available on VRT MAX.

VRT MAX is the video-on-demand platform of VRT, Flanders' public broadcasting service.

This Kodi add-on can be used to watch all video content from VRT MAX.

  • Track the programs you like
  • List all videos alphabetically by program, category, channel or feature
  • Watch live streams from VRT 1, Canvas, Ketnet, Ketnet Junior and Sporza
  • Discover recently added or soon offline content
  • Browse the online TV guides or search VRT MAX

Note: The VRT MAX add-on is not endorsed by VRT, and is provided 'as is' without any warranty of any kind.

Installing

In Kodi, simply search the add-ons for VRT and install the VRT MAX video add-on.

Note: Detailed information about installing and updating the VRT MAX add-on is available on our Wiki.

The VRT MAX platform requires users to sign in before gaining access to video-on-demand content. Users can sign in with a user name and password, or sign in with their Google, or Facebook account.

This plugin currently only supports signing in using the first method (user name and password). If you already have a VRT MAX account and sign in with another method, it is easy to get a password:

  • Sign out of your VRT MAX account;
  • Click Inloggen met e-mail;
  • Click the Wachtwoord vergeten? hyperlink, and enter your email address.

You will receive an email that allows you to set a password. Use this password to enter in the plugin when prompted.
