Retrospect (Previously XBMC Online TV) is a Kodi video add-on which allows you to watch streams of a number of free and publicly available online TV stream sites.
It originally started the streams from www.uitzendinggemist.nl which is a Dutch site. The add-on got its initial name from this site: ‘Uitzending gemist’ means ‘missed broadcast’ in Dutch.
Discussion about the add-on can be done in this thread at the Kodi forums or in this thread at Tweakers.net (Dutch only). Issues regarding this script can be submitted at our issue tracker at GitHub.
Starting from Kodi Leia (v18), you can easily install Retrospect from the official Kodi add-on repository. Simply use the search function in the add-ons section to find Retrospect and install it. More detailed information can be found in the Retrospect Wiki.
Note: Make sure the Auto-Update option for Retrospect is enabled to automagically receive new updates.
We have a -1/+1 Kodi release policy: we support the previous, the current and the future release of Kodi. So with the release of Kodi Matrix, the support for Kodi Krypton has been removed.
Listing of folders or playing of media can be automated for Retrospect. In order for this to work, you will need to create shortcuts for the folders and/or videos you want to automate. This can be done as follows:
- On each folder or video item you can go to:
- Retrospect Favourites.
- Add Shortcut.
- Provide a
[simple name]. - Remember the
simple nameas you need it later.
- Then you can use this url to directly open or play the shortcut:
plugin://plugin.video.retrospect/?action=openshortcut&shortcut=[simple name]
Listing a folder can be done by caling the Kodi API Addons.ExecuteAddon with the given shortcut url. Media can be played using the Player.Open API.
If you were to use the Kodi JSON-RPC API (documented here) the following are your options:
- You could start the playback of a media file with
Player.Open:
curl -X POST -H "content-type:application/json" http://<kodi-ip>:<kodi-port>/jsonrpc -d '{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "Player.Open", "params": {"item": {"file": "plugin://plugin.video.retrospect/?action=openshortcut&shortcut=<shortcut-name>"}}, "id": 1}'- Or open a shortcut to a folder with
Addons.ExecuteAddon:
curl -X POST -H "content-type:application/json" http://<kodi-ip>:<kodi-port>/jsonrpc -d '{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "Addons.ExecuteAddon", "params": {"addonid": "plugin.video.retrospect","params": {"action": "openshortcut","shortcut": "<shortcut-name>" }}, "id": 1}'**Replace <shortcut-name>, <kodi-ip> and <kodi-port> with the correct values.
You can help develop Retrospect via our Github page and/or help translating Retrospect via the Kodi Add-on Weblate.

The first idea for Retrospect/XBMC Online TV/XOT-Uzg came from a script by BaKMaN.
