Hi all 
(my first post here)
After not being successfull getting Kodi working I've decided to try to use the already built in omxplayer.
I'm really happy that it worked!
To have controls you have to install joj2key first (apt install joy2key)
This is how my es_systems.cfg entry looks like
As omxplayer did not recognize left-right-up-down properly I had to remap the controls.
