Does Kodi have a Jellyfin Skin? - Owner - 2024-04-27
Jellyfin - Appearance & Screens are close to Emby’s Screens and great.
Kodi – Has various skins but they don't seem to have one that is similar to Jellyfin / Emby

No, we haven't created our own Kodi skin at this time, and the closest is Embuary which has lots of things hardcoded to the EmbyCon addon. Most of it works, but there's a few things that don't. There's a more thorough writeup about the skin and customizing it here: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellycon/issues/14

What are the modifications? What this modified JellyCon add-on allows (for Embuary) that stock won't?

Hi,
I'm actually using the Embuary skin, which I’ve significantly expanded and customized specifically for use with Jellyfin. It’s based on the latest Kodi Omega version by Teddyknuddel, but I’ve added a number of improvements and new features – especially tailored for full Jellyfin integration.
If you're looking for something that feels more like the Jellyfin/Emby UI, this version might be a good fit.
> I'm not a developer – I created all of this with the help of AI tools. It started as a personal side project, but it’s grown into something very stable and fully usable.
Core Features:
--------------
- Global home widgets for each library category – no widget duplication required
- Dynamic codec flags showing:
- Video resolution (4K, 1080p, etc.)
- Video & audio codecs (HEVC, AVC, DTS, EAC3, etc.)
- Audio channels (2.0, 5.1, 7.1, etc.)
- Codec Style Switcher – toggle between “standard” and “colorful” icon sets via skin setting
- Codec Resizer – scale codec logos freely via skin settings
- HDR Type Detection using Player.Process – supports and displays Dolby Vision, HDR10, HDR10+ (icons + labels)
- CPM Support for CoreELEC CPM Builds:

- Integrated Episode Jumper – allows easy skipping to previous/next episode with on-screen feedback
- Fully compatible with Jellyfin & JellyCon Kodi Plugin, but i personally prefer the jellyfin plugin in Kodi:

Fixes & Enhancements:
---------------------
- Layout fixes for both 2K and 4K resolutions – no oversized elements, properly scaled views
- Various bug fixes – improved visibility logic, content containers, proper alignment, and more
- Consistent support across all view types – Poster, Wide, Wall, Landscape, etc.
- Easy updates via repository – the skin can be updated conveniently through Kodi's add-on manager
You can choose between a **2K version** (for 1080p/1440p displays) and a **4K version** (optimized for UHD setups), depending on your screen resolution and use case, but i still prefer the 2K Version for my 4K TV.
