Direct call to kodi-xxx in ExecStart= allows direction of kill signal to that rather than to kodi-standalone wrapper. This allows the kill signal to hit the indented executable. As well, using killall in the ExecStop= allows for synchronous stopping and for kodi to do shutdown housekeeping tasks such as saving settings, stopping services (web, zeroconf, etc.) and unloading things.

# kodi-standalone-service
|

Systemd service units to run [Kodi](https://kodi.tv/) in standalone mode without the need for a DE. X11, Wayland, and GBM are supported.

Which one to choose?
|

|

In terms of functionality, X11 is probably the most mature and feature rich. Wayland is next in line and should be considered on-par with X11, however, a known limitation of Wayland is having the resolution and frame rate set in the compositor rather than in kodi's GUI. As well, Wayland currently does not support VT switching. GBM has some known features it lacks compared the X11 and Wayland. A complete list can be found in [Kodi issue 14876](https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/issues/14876).

## Passing environment variables to the service

Should the need arise, one can pass environment variables to the service by creating `/etc/conf.d/kodi-standalone` and populating it with the needed variables.

### Service not starting
|
||||
Most users should not need `/etc/X11/Xwrapper.config` since the created X server becomes the [controlling process](http://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.exec.html#StandardInput=) of the VT to which it is bound. Most users does not mean all users. There have been reports of some AMD users still requiring this file. As well, users of Xorg's native modesetting driver may also require it.

The recommendation is to first try starting `kodi.service` without it, but if the service fails to start X, you may need to create `/etc/X11/Xwrapper.config` which should contain the following:
