+# [Invidious](https://invidio.us) plugin for [Kodi](https://kodi.tv)
+
+This plugin provides an [Invidious](https://invidio.us) client for [Kodi](https://kodi.tv). Invidious is a privacy-friendly web frontend to YouTube.
+
+**Note:** Currently, this plugin is only tested with Kodi 20 and newer.
+
+## Installation
+
+To keep track with development, it is recommended to install the plugin with git:
+
+```shell script
+# please change the destination if necessary
+git clone https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/kodi-invidious-plugin.git ~/.kodi/addons/plugin.video.invidious
+
+# on an embedded device (e.g., an X96 Mini running CoreELEC, you need to clone to /storage/.kodi/addons/plugin.video.invidious
+```
+
+You can also download an archive and extract it in the right place instead of using git:
+
+```shell script
+# same here: make sure you change to the right directory
+cd ~/.kodi/addons/
+
+# download a zip archive
+mkdir plugin.video.invidious
+wget https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/kodi-invidious-plugin/archive/master.tar.gz -O - | tar xz --strip-components=1 -C plugin.video.invidious
+```
+
+It is strongly recommended to use git instead of an archive, as it makes updating the plugin a lot easier.
+
+You may have to restart Kodi before you can enable the plugin. To enable the plugin, please go to the addons settings, switch to *user plugins* and enable the plugin there.
+
+
+## To Do
+
+- evaluate using youtube-dl to remove dependency on third-party web service (maybe in a second plugin)
+- implement adaptive streaming properly
+- be able to open YouTube videos from [NewPipe](https://newpipe.net)
+- ~~add support for settings, e.g., to configure Invidious instance~~
+- ~~support for adaptive streaming~~
+- consider supporting versions < Kodi 18 (e.g., by making the dependency on inputstream-helper optional)
+- ~~*trending*, *top*, *popular* etc. video lists (not too important to most people, but Invidious offers endpoints, so why not?)~~
+- visit channel of list items (e.g., via the context menu of a video search result)
+- save channels in favorite list (for quick access from the main menu)
+- support for subtitles

+To add a new language, create the language folder 
+(I.e. resource.language.de_de/, resource.language.da_dk/, resource.language.fr_fr/ etc.)
+Run "msginit -i resource.language.en_gb/strings.po".
+This will procduce an XX.po file, where XX is the current configured Locale language of your system.
+Move that file into your language folder, and name the file strings.po.
+For french it will be "mv fr.po resource.language.fr_fr/strings.po"
