In this article, I will discuss how to check the Kodi log for error fixes and more information.
Understanding and Locating Kodi Log Files
To understand and locate Kodi log files, follow these steps:
First, open Kodi on your device. Once you are on the home screen, locate the settings button. This is usually represented by a gear or cog icon. Click on it to access the settings menu.
Next, navigate to the system settings within Kodi. This is where you will find the option to enable debug logging. Look for the “System” tab within settings and then click on “Logging.” Here, you can toggle on debug logging to start recording log files.
After enabling debug logging, return to the home screen of Kodi. Use the file manager within Kodi to access the log files. This can usually be found in the settings menu under the “File manager” option.
Once in the file manager, locate the log file folder. This is where all the log files generated by Kodi will be stored. You can view these files directly in Kodi or transfer them to another device for further analysis.
