​How many of you use Kodi without an network connection?

  • Hi,

    I am using Kodi under Raspberry Pi to play only local files using a usb flash drive. My Kodi box is not connected to the Internet.

    How many of you use Kodi without an Internet connection ?

  • Do you mean internet connection or networked? My home setup uses a local LAN but has no need for the internet. So I guess your question really should be .. without network!

  • I use Kodi as a standalone implementation on an Asus Chrome box with two 1TB drives connected to the USB ports, which is where I store my media. Kodi is also connected to the Internet via Ethernet but not really for streaming. The real purpose for the network connection is for ssh-ing from th server upstairs. The server is also my ripping station for my personal disc library, so I use the network connection to transfer rips to the local drives Kodi uses. I sometimes stream from the server over the network but only for rips I don't keep, like when I borrow DVDs, rip them, view them and then delete them
