I installed kodi like this
(kodi.passthru.withPackages (kodiPkgs: with kodiPkgs; [invidious netflix steam-controller]))
netflix is working fine, but i can’t find invidious in kodi. I can intall it through kodi. But when i try to open it i get: Invidious error check the log for more information. I also can’t find this log.
We don’t have an invidious addon for kodi. Likely you’re passing in pkgs.invidious, which isn’t related to kodi at all.
I didn’t know this addon exists. There is a high chance I’m going to package this. I’ll try to remember to ping back on this topic if I do.
By the way you can drop passthru and just use kodi.withPackages.
You are right. I have with pkgs; above of the line which installs kodi.
I packaged the invidious addon: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/180014
If you’re on unstable it should land in the binary caches at some point soon. If you’re on stable it should be fine to backport that leaf package to stable. Let me know if you want me to do that.
Does it work for you? I get the error in ~/.kodi/temp/kodi.log

Yes. The plugin is fine, you just need to find a compatible invidious instance and set the value in your settings. Take a look and try a couple of these: Invidious Instances - Invidious Documentation
Let us know which one works for you.
