Quit Kodi on LibreELEC

  • For the setup I have build it is required that Kodi can be quit without shutting the system down. But even if you enable the corresponsing button in the advancedsettings.xml with showexitbutton, it will not work, either will other ways to trigger a quit, e.g. from the mobile app.

    What must be done to allow Kodi to be quited?

  • Search for the thread explaining how to link the command "systemctl stop kodi" to a menu-item or button on your remote. It was I remember with linking a script .sh to something to what you need.

  • In the mean time I have investigated the Libreelec code and it is indeed not possible to stop kodi from the inner because the corresponding event is simply ignored.
