  • the addon installs Steamlink automatically, wakeuponlan is also supported if its installed all you have to do is create a file in home directory called .wakeup and add your MAC id nano /home/osmc/.wakeup
  • This addon needs Kodi version 19 to be installed since its python 3.

Got issues

  • if the bug is related to the launcher, file an issue
  • if its related to OSMC like crashing the pi adding overlays etc start a thread on OSMC Forums.
  • if steamlink launches but there are issues then go to Steam Forums for support.

this makes it less spammy on the issue tracker with OSMC issues again this launcher does very little on a OS level all it does is starts steamlink.

When reporting a bug please prodvide logs this can be done via commandline grab-logs -A

if these fixes are out of date and its working report back on the tracker.

Known Workarounds:

  • if you get a black stream from your Steam host, you need dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d,cma-512 instead of dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d in config.txt this workaround is for Raspberry Pi 4 (only)
