Assumed you have done all that Kyle has recommended i.e. created the folder structure ~/.kodi/addons and unzipped service.xbmc.tts in there you also need to do the following. - Start kodi and arrow around the home screen. Make sure you can hear clicking sound as you are navigating on the Kodi home screen. - Now close kodi by pressing letter s followed by the enter key or if you are on the desktop you can also press alt+F4. - Now use sqlite3 commandline to poke at the database file ~/.kodi/userdata/Database/Addons27.db - When you can see sqlite prompt type in the following: UPDATE installed SET enabled=1 WHERE addonID='service.xbmc.tts'; - Now you are done editing sqlite database just exit out of sqlite by typing in .q - Now start Kodi and enjoy the Kodi screen reader addon.

Milton, You need to install the full espeak engine. In a terminal, type: sudo apt install espeak After espeak is installed, Kodi should come up talking.

Re: Kodi
Kodi doesn't work with any OS screen reader. You need the kodi screen reader addon, which you will be able to unzip inside Kodi's addons directory before you start it for the first time. Open up a terminal and execute the following commands before you start Kodi, being sure that you are working in your home directory. wget http://mirrors.kodi.tv/addons/krypton/service.xbmc.tts/service.xbmc.tts-1.0.6.zip mkdir -p .kodi/addons cd .kodi/addons unzip ~/service.xbmc.tts-1.0.6.zip cd Now run kodi from the sound and video menu and it should come up speaking with its own screen reader. Hope this helps. Sent from graffiti bridge -- Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility
Re: Kodi
Glenn, To use Kodi on any platform, including Ubuntu, You need the Kodi Screen Reader add-on. You can find information for the add-on at: http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=196757 I'm running Kodi on the Openelec opporating system on a raspberry pi2 with no problems. The advantage to Openelec is it includes espeak by default. If you use something like OSMC, you will need sighted assistance to set it up. Also with OSMC, you will need to ssh into the box and install espeak manually. If you would like assistance setting it up, email me off list.
