![The complete guide to Ezra on Kodi [2023] Ezra Kodi addon featured image](https://howtomediacenter.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/kodi-ezra-featured-image.jpg)
Ezra is a new Kodi add-on that allows us to stream movies and TV shows using premium sources, specially Easynews and Furk, but it can also be used with services like Real Debrid, Premiumize, and All Debrid.
Based on Fen, Ezra offers a nice user interface, fast menu navigation, and all the other great features from its predecessor. Like Trakt support, file downloads, and subtitles. It also has its own favorites list, a Discover section to create lists using filters, and a context menu with many useful options.
IMPORTANT: Ezra hasn’t been updated in a long time, it still works, but we recommend using another addon. Please take a look at our Best Kodi addons list for more information.

2. How to install Ezra on Kodi
If this is your first time installing add-ons on Kodi, you’ll have to allow the installation of unofficial add-ons. Please read How to allow 3rd-party add-ons on Kodi and come back here when you’re ready.
2.1. Install Ezra repository
Let’s add a link to Ezra’s source on GitHub, this allows us to download the repository file directly with Kodi.
1. Press the cog icon near the top left corner of the screen.
2. Select File Manager.
3. Press Add Source.
4. Enter https://ezra-hubbard.github.io/ in the top box and ezra on the bottom one. Press OK to add the source.
Now that we added the link, let’s use it to install the repository.
5. Go back to the Settings menu and this time select Add-ons.
6. Click on Install from zip file.
You’ll see a message about the auto-update feature, press Yes to continue.
7. Select ezra.
8. Now click on repository.ezra-x.x.x.zip.
Wait a couple of seconds while the repository is downloaded and installed. You’ll see a notification when the process is done.

Let’s use the repository to install the add-on and its dependencies.
9. Select Install from Repository.
10. Press Ezra Repository.
11. Select Video add-ons.
12. Select Ezra.
13. Press the Install button.
14. Press OK to install Ezra and its dependencies.
Wait a couple of seconds while the add-on is downloaded. You’ll see a notification when the installation process finishes.
15. Go back to the Home Screen, you should now see a shortcut to Ezra on the Add-ons tab.
We’re almost done! Ezra is installed on Kodi but we still need to set up a Debrid account or the add-on won’t find any sources.
3. Using Real Debrid with Ezra
Ezra requires a premium account to function properly. It works natively with Easynews and Furk, but it can also use other services like Real Debrid, Premiumize, or All Debrid.
In this example, we’ll use Real Debrid. A popular service that grants you unrestricted access to various file hosting websites and cached torrents for a very low price.
We will open My Accounts through Ezra to make sure settings are synchronized automatically between both add-ons. If you open My Accounts directly, you’ll have to sync Ezra and My Accounts manually.
1. Open Ezra and select Settings.
2. Press Settings: Ezra.
3. Scroll down to the Provider Accounts tab and press Open My Accounts.
My Accounts settings window will open.
4. Now select the Debrid Accounts tab and press Authorize under Real-Debrid.
5. Copy the authorization code.
6. Use a web browser to visit https://real-debrid.com/device/ and enter the authorization code. (You must be logged in with your Real Debrid account).
7. Enter Ezra and press Set that name.
8. Back in Kodi, you should now see your username on the Real Debrid section. Press OK to close My Account’s settings window.
Ezra and My Accounts will synchronize their settings.
9. Back in Ezra’s settings window, press OK to save the settings.
All done! You’re now ready to use Ezra on Kodi.
Navigate the add-on’s main menu to select a movie or TV show. Once you’ve made your choice, Ezra will show a selectable list of available sources.
10. Select a source to start playing the video.
To use subtitles with Ezra, please read How to enable subtitles on Kodi.
If you get the “No external scrapers enabled” error after authorizing your Debrid account, you’ll have to re-synchronize the settings between Ezra and My Accounts. Open Ezra and select Settings > Settings: Ezra > scroll down to the Provider Accounts tab > and press (Re)Sync Ezra Settings with My Accounts.
4. Additional Settings
Let’s take a look at some popular features on Ezra. These steps are optional, but they can improve your user experience.
4.1. Using Trakt with Ezra
Trakt.tv is a free service that helps you organize and keep track of your favorite movies and shows. Using a Trakt account is optional, but it is very helpful if you want to sync your watched status across devices.
Ezra can integrate with your Trakt account giving you access to your Collection, lists, and bookmarks.
Once again, we’re going to open My Accounts trough Ezra to make sure the settings are synchronized between the two add-ons.
1. Open Ezra and select Settings.
2. Press Settings: Ezra.
3. Select the Meta Accounts tab and press Please visit My Accounts to change settings under the Trakt section.
My Accounts settings window will open.
4. Make sure the Trakt tab is selected and press Authorization…

6. Visit https://trakt.tv/activate on your web browser and enter the authorization code. (You must be logged into your Trakt account)
7. Press Yes to link Ezra with your Trakt account.
8. You should now see your account under Trakt. Press OK to close My Account settings window.
Ezra and My Accounts will synchronize their settings.
9. Back in Ezra’s settings window, you’ll also see your username under the Trakt section. Press OK to save the settings.
You can now use your Trakt account with Ezra.
Go to My Lists on the add-on’s main menu to access your collection, watchlist, and other lists. Other Trakt options are available inside the Movies and TV Shows categories such as In Progress, Watched, and Next Episodes.
4.2. Autoplay content
By default, Ezra shows a selectable list of sources before playing a video. We can override this behavior and make the add-on select a source automatically.
1. Open Ezra’s settings, scroll down to the Playback tab, and enable Auto Play under the Movies and Episodes sections. Press OK to save the settings.
You can limit the quality of sources and adjust the Next Episode dialog settings according to your preferences.

Ezra doesn’t seem to pull in any torrents, only hosters. Am I missing something? Ezra has some great features. I especially like that one can remove one item at a time from the searched list. It would be my first choice when using kodi if I can get torrent links.
I set up Ezra with RD, Premiumize and Easynews. I am not getting any Easynews streams. Does anybody have any suggestions?
For some reason whenever I’m watching a movie now (as Of July 20th 2022) it will just close the player and go back to the movie selection. Just gotta click on the movie and resume but it’s annoying when it happens every 20 minutes.
Any help would be great!
Ezra tips mentions editing menus by “pressing context”. I can find no mention of context anywhere. Any help finding it would be appreciated.
Hi! Go to Ezra’s main menu long-press on the an item to open the context menu. You can also open the context menu using the C key.
No tesults on each mooie??
Tried trakt authorization but keep getting error authoriing message.
Hi. Any idea why in kodi 20 cant to open the addon. Install complete but addon can not open. I cant understand the error. In kodi 19 i dont have problem.
Version 20 is still in development and the current builds are unstable. Also, Ezra is on feature freeze stage, meaning it’s being maintained but they’re not adding features right now. I’d recommend staying with Kodi 19 for now.
