Combine the best frontend media client Kodi with the best multimedia backend server: Plex
This allows you to use all the native functionalities of Kodi while using your Plex server to manage your media. It's the best of both world and you will see a great boost in performance while using Kodi. You will experience ultra smooth navigation, beautiful UIs and be able to playback any file under the sun. So let's get started!
- How to get started: Installation of PKC, and then you should configure PKC on the first run
- Customize your Kodi homescreen and break up your Plex libraries
- Setup Kodi for several users
- Do check the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) to optimize your setup!
- Our forums at plex.tv
- How to get help and how to report a problem/bug
Currently these features are working:
- Movies and Home Videos
- TV Shows
- Pictures and Photos
- Plex Watch Later / Plex It!
- Full sync at first run, then periodic delta syncs every 60min (customizable)
- Instant watched state/resume status sync: This is a 2-way synchronisation. Any watched state or resume status will be instantly (within seconds) reflected to or from Kodi and the server
- Plex Companion: fling Plex media (or anything else) from other Plex devices to PlexKodiConnect
- Play directly from network paths (e.g. "\\server\Plex\movie.mkv" or "smb://server/Plex/movie.mkv") instead of slow HTTP (e.g. "192.168.1.1:32400"). You have to setup all your Plex libraries to point to such network paths. Do have a look at the wiki here
- Plex Transcoding
The addon is not and never will be compatible with the MySQL database replacement in Kodi. In fact, PlexKodiConnect takes over the point of having a MySQL database because it acts as a "man in the middle" for your entire media library.
