You can just use hostname.local sometimes, but the proper answer is to get a not-used domain name, and set your DNS server or hosts files to have that domain be the IP address of the Kodi server. You will also have to get Kodi to run on port 80 if you don’t want to have to specify the port. You might be able to reconfigure Kodi, or you could use NGINX to proxy port 80 to 8080 – cocomac Oct 10 '21 at 21:29
