The following is working for me

Works perfectly. Thank you.
For anyone wanting them, the skip back and forward 10s or 30s follow this format:
lounge_kodi_player_skip_back_30:
sequence:
- service: media_player.kodi_call_method
data:
entity_id: media_player.lounge_osmc_kodi
method: Player.Seek
playerid: 1
value: "bigbackward" # "bigforward" for the other way
lounge_kodi_player_skip_fwd_10:
sequence:
- service: media_player.kodi_call_method
data:
entity_id: media_player.lounge_osmc_kodi
method: Player.Seek
playerid: 1
value: "smallforward" # "smallbackward" for the other way
My remote was almost complete. Except the MDI icons for back 30s and forward 10s have only just been released and did not make this last update. These place holders will do until the next update:
Well not quite complete. I just discovered this handy service:
lounge_update_kodi_library:
sequence:
- service: media_player.kodi_call_method
data:
entity_id: media_player.lounge_osmc_kodi
method: VideoLibrary.Scan
But that can wait until tomorrow. It’s far too late on a work night.
EDIT:
I remembered that custom ui tiles can use local icons:

Awesome, thanks a ton! This has some things in it I’ve never seen before so this is a great way to learn.
I’ve got 1 of my 3 kodi’s all set up now and it works great. Now to do the other 2. I’m thinking there should be a way to use the same script but change the entity id based on the card that’s pulling it. For now I’ll just do some find/replace and have more code in the files.
Thanks again!

What does your config look like for Kodi? I have a similar set up.
thankyou for sharing this, works perfectly and just what I was after!
quick question on those 2 mdi icons, is this reliant on a new Hassio release to incorporate these icons? Thanks again for sharing this remote! Very cool
They are not available in 0.88.2 (the version I’m currently running) so I downloaded them and am using them from local storage (www folder).

just doing some reading
read your post had a brain fart
what about have a input_select
kodi_machine:
name: "Select Kodi Box"
options:
- kodi_main
initial: kodi_main
icon: mdi:kodi
then couldnt you use the data_template
kodi_left:
alias: "Kodi Left"
sequence:
data_template:
entity_id: media_player.{{ states.input_select.kodi_machine.state}}
method: Input.Left
service: media_player.kodi_call_method
media_player.kodi_call_method
Does this need replacing with the local service name? Or is this a custom service?
I’ve copied your scripts & lovelace code but not getting any response on Kodi.
I’m getting this in the log:
homeassistant.exceptions.ServiceNotFound: Unable to find service media_player/kodi_call_method

Thanks.
The way you call kodi methods was changed in the recent HA update. Documented in the release notes
The only info I can find in the integrations docs is limited and doesn’t appear to actually give an example of using the call method. It just mentions it but then doesn’t give any obvious details.
Could you possibly share some code samples?
Thanks.
