tofa for Kodi

If you already run Kodi on a TV box, a Shield, or a small PC, there's a Kodi add-on that connects it to your tofa server. It gives you a full tofa interface inside Kodi: Home, Browse, Discover, Search, title pages with cast and episodes, its own player controls, and settings. It also appears as an ordinary video source, so your library shows up in Kodi's own widgets and favourites.

Playback uses Kodi's player. Dolby Vision, TrueHD and DTS-HD passthrough, and refresh-rate matching depend on your Kodi version, device, and audio/video setup.

Built by one of our community members#

A community member maintains this add-on as a separate project under its own licence. We have helped with its development. For add-on questions and bugs, use the project page: github.com/cinema-ONE/tofa-for-kodi. If something is wrong on your server, or the same thing goes wrong in our own apps too, come to us as usual.

What you need#

• Kodi 19 or newer. The add-on is developed and tested on Kodi 21 and 22.
• A tofa server on 0.9.30 or newer. Older servers aren't blocked, but parts of the add-on will be missing or wrong rather than quietly doing less, and it tells you so once per session. See keeping your server updated.

Install it#

Adding the repository first is the way to do it, because Kodi then keeps the add-on up to date on its own.

The add-on and its repository are run by a community member, not by us, so install it only if you're comfortable with that.

1. In Kodi, go to Settings, System, Add-ons, and turn on Unknown sources. Kodi won't install from a zip without it, and only says so once you try.
2. Go to Settings, File manager, Add source, and enter https://tofa.cinemaone.ch. Kodi can't name an https source for you and won't accept a blank name, so call it tofa.
3. Go to Settings, Add-ons, Install from zip file, pick tofa, then repository.tofa-1.0.1.zip.
4. Choose Install from repository, tofa Add-on Repository, Video add-ons, then tofa for Kodi.
5. Open it from Program add-ons, tofa for Kodi. That's the full interface. The entry under Videos is the plain directory listing, which works under any skin but isn't the same thing.

Sign in with your tofa account the first time it starts, the same account you use everywhere else, and your server and your progress are there.

You can also install the add-on zip by hand from the project's releases page, but you will need to install future updates yourself.
