I should stop there before I wear out my welcome. Thank you again for your help. Any suggestions or recommendations are greatly appreciated! However, given that one of them is causing major issues and some appear to be broken , I think a fresh start might be best. The important thing is that you install new addons slowly, making sure each works before adding another.
This will allow you to install new addons directly instead of messing around with sources and repositories. Hope your Labor Day weekend was a good one. I got the XBMC box from a friend. During a visit, I noticed he was watching a movie that had just been released. I asked how he was doing that and he pointed to the box. I asked if he could get me one. When I started the box for the first time, it brought up the main XBMC screen, I clicked the Kodi menu and the next thing on the screen was something called Merlin.
So the box was working fine from to I vaguely remember seeing a message on the screen that the change was required and I had to accept it. I think I may have deleted it due to having it constantly popup when using Kodi.
You recommended doing any kind of upgrade to Krypton and instead suggested I remove my current Jarvis version and install the latest Leia version. I deleted about 25 and must have picked a good one because after shutting Kodi down, upon clicking the Kodi icon from the man menu, it started right up.
This time it went right to the TVAddons screen. And all the addons I had deleted were still deleted! And the scrolling marquee message changed from a message to August !! For movies, none of the addons provided any streams. Before doing that a question. Can my current version of Kodi Jarvis 16 be updated to the newest version Leia On the kodi.
How can I identify which version I should download to my box? Or does Leia come with addons already installed? Sorry for the long reply. Was really hoping to get this fixed without the deleting process. But need to move forward.
Thank you so much for your patience and time with me. It is greatly appreciated. If everything works as intended, you can just uninstall Jarvis afterward anyway. I have been using Kodi for a few years now.
I have just upgraded to In the past, I would always use Ares Wizard to make a complete back up for my firestick. Save the zip file from using ES File Explorer to the cloud and then copy the zip file to all of the firesticks in my home. I learn that Ares Wizard will no longer allow you to back up your configuration once you install kodi 18 and higher.
Ares Wizard will not allow you to select a destination folder path. Once you select the destination path and select ok, it will revert back to no location selected.
Any recommendations on a backup solution similar to Ares Wizard? Or another way I can easily back up my configuration on one firestick and transfer it to another firestick? You should be able to transfer the files to and from your PC in exactly the same way as before. Hopefully this should fix the issue. Ok, no problem. Hi Ian, I have the same problem with Kodi The only other posts I can find with the same problem all relate to low-powered devices like Fire Sticks or Raspberry Pis.
Are your graphics drivers up to date? Also, did you reboot Kodi after turning off hardware acceleration? If not, great, but if it affects both versions, the issue is likely your hardware. Hi, so i have Kodi I also cant update to Hi Lee-Anne, does this happen with every addon you use?
Then, in Kodi, check the settings to see if hardware acceleration is enabled. If so, turning it off might fix the problem. Dear Ian, I have tried so many times to find the answer and can not find the answer and anyone to help me.
I have a Kodi It is a little small black box…on the Home screen I click on the Kodi. It worked find when I purchased it and installed it. I used it for about a year…then changed televisions and did not reconnect. Not until today March 30, did I reconnect it to my T. Everything comes up fine. I am connected to the internet and when I click on Kodi…it will open up just fine. HOWEVER, when I go Videos and click on a anything such as a movie channel it goes to a screen where it list several items, I click on any one of them and then the screen comes up with nothing listed on it..
An error.. Pls help! Hi Susan, this is actually quite a common issue. Can you try installing some addons from the official Kodi repository and see if they have the same problem? I am a natural troubleshooter and know my way around pretty well with KODI as I have used it since before the name change….. I have a 10GB cable connection all devices currently are wifi connected on the 5g through our tplink c router with no problems on My Husband uses yoda for just about everything and is his goto and only knows how to turn it on and watch what he wants.
I am the HoneyFixer. Most of the time on the Mi-3 it is while watching something…. I used to have Real-Debrid service and never had issues with throddling but since our ISP upgraded I stopped using it because i no longer have buffering issues Well thats most of my history I think….. I realize, just by my own research, the mountains of people out there who are simply clueless that there will be someone out there that has already solved your stupid irritating tech problem and your just too lazy or busy to spend hours finding the solution…..
Have a blessed day and I hope this at least made you smile for a minute too. Vickie grandma down in Texas. I think the reason Windows Defender is detecting viruses is because some addons include code that effectively allows the creator to use your computer to mine cryptocurrencies. Hopefully your logs will contain some clues that point us in the right direction.
Thanks very much, Ian. Ian, You seem to be the most knowledgeable and I am hoping you can help. The problem started when Kodi updated from I have a Matricom Q 3 box. I uninstalled Kodi and reinstalled Kodi from the play store. I also went to Kodi and cleared Data. I only have one addon— yoda which came from the supremacy repository. I only have the supremacy repository and the Kodi Add-on repository. All this is probably pretty simple to you, but not to me.
I watch TV shows. I close kodi — exit kodi. Every second tv show, I do all of the above Plus I go to apps and clear the kodi cache. Never hit clear data— did that once and had to start all over. I have uninstalled Kodi and reinstalled Kodi 4 times. Got rid of everything except Yoda. No maintenance program addons— nothing. No log viewer no ares maintenance— I loved that app.
Hopefully, everything should work properly now. You might still be able to install it if you have a PC running Windows 10, though: the Microsoft store should give you the option to install Kodi directly on your Xbox. Just updated from Does this happen with locally-stored files too, or just when streaming? This is a question for Ian. I use an android box for kodi. Everything was working great until last week. I noticed that the box ungraded a new kodi version.
Now, although there is still plenty of streams from Exodus, nothing is working. Any advice. It may also be worthwhile reinstalling the addon entirely just in case. Internet is working through the box as I have confirmed that much.
Hi Nazim — do you mean that the video keeps playing even when paused or that you want Kodi to buffer the video when paused? How fast are your internet speeds? Also, are you using Kodi on a PC? Everything is working fine but whenever i try to install any build that works for other people , the build downloads but when the files are being copied after downloading, kodi simply crashes and the box restarts.
When i open kodi then, nothing has changed. Can i never install a build? Hi Ian, thank you for helping everyone! When I go back to click on the following episode the link tries to open but it stops.
If I restart Kodi that link will open no problem but only once again…. I turned off antivirus, VPN, nothing changes. Hey Sammie, this is a really strange issue. It might be your build unlikely, as you said , a corrupted file somewhere, or perhaps even that Kodi is dropping connection every now and then. There are a few things we can try: 1. The next time this happens, open the log viewer, paste the results into pastebin. See if you can watch multiple episodes of shorter shows — this will let us know if, for instance, Kodi loses internet access after a specific amount of time.
Run Kodi in administrator mode — might not help but you never know. Ethernet connection…. I have a digixstream box and it quit receiving my wifi signal. About two weeks before it quit when I was clearing cashe there was a message that I was not connected to the internet and to check my wifi. I ignored it because I was able to access and watch the movies. Now I got nothing.
Hi Jeri, what happens when you try to connect to wifi now? Does it just not connect or can you not see any available networks? I have a question I been using incursion and it stopped working so I uninstalled it and reinstalled it then it was giving me a message saying it s not connecting to repository when I would do install from repository after installing from zip, so I cleared all my add-ons off my Kodi box raspberry pi v There has been a recent Amazon Fire software update that seems to have broken video player options: such as skip, Fast-forward, and bookmark resume.
If attempting to use some of these options the player will freeze and home is the only way to get a response. This is affecting multiple players. I have attempted a refresh or Is this a known is? Hi David, that certainly sounds like a strange issue. Hi, i just installed Kodi on my Xbox One S. The app runs, I can index media off an NFS share but nothing will play. Any suggestions? Every time I switch Kodi back on it says preparing for first run.
Any suggestions on what I should try to do? Hi Nomi. Hi, I have a problem with getting the source to play. I have a Trakt Account and can find all my collection. However, when I ask for sources to playback, it find lots but when I choose one it tries to get the source, then it spends then next few minutes going through all of the sources after the one I chose and never playing one. I would be grateful if you could help me sort this problem.
I am currently using a durex build with some add ons like tv zion, cinema, terrarium, all are having same issue. Can you advise on fixing the problem…thanks. If not, I can take a look at your debug log to see if that gives us any clues. Is this a known issue or isolated to just me for some reason? Please help!
Hi Dan, roughly how many builds have you tried? Kodi builds are notoriously unreliable, which is part of the reason why we recommend avoiding them. Sorry to piggyback on your comment but i couldnt find a way to comment myself.
I have been having a problem with kodi for almost a week now. It opens up fine I click on an addon and the the circle just keeps spinning spinning and nothing happens. I even tried loading kodi 18 and still having the same issue.
Please help if you can. Hope this helps! Thanks Ian for the fast response. I found that the issue was the internet box I had to reset it a few times and got it going. Now onto a whole new issue I was watching a movie and then all of a sudden my firestick reset.
When it came back on Kodi wouldnt load anymore. I tried reinstalling 18 and it just goes to the open page and then either goes black or just jumps me back to the home page. Thanks for the speedy response! Could you talk me through how to send you my debug log? Thank you so much! Once you find it, you can either paste the contents into pastebin, or upload the whole file to Dropbox, Google Drive, or a similar service.
One thing, though: this is a public forum so make sure the link only provides access to this one file, not a folder or anything like that. Hi Dan, no problem! As far as I know, Exodus has been out of action for a while, although forks do pop up from time to time.
Then, trigger the error: in this case, by playing a video. Finally, grab the pastebin link and leave it in a reply for me. I installed the log viewer for kodi addon, I cannot open newer movies at all. Hi Ian, I have stumbled across your article in an attempt to solve an issue I am having with my Exodus and Exodus Redux addons on Kodi Hi Elisha, Exodus and its many newer variations go down or change address all the time. Hi Ian, I am brand new to Kodi, but I think installed and configured everything correctly.
I can search and find the movies that I searched. I can also save them to favorites and they show up in favorities. Here is the problem: when I hit play, nothing happens. I am running Kodi from a Fire TV stick thing.
Hey Brooks, this could be happening for a number of reasons. First, does this happen with one specific addon or several? Have you tried testing some from the official Kodi repo? If not, a VPN can help. You may also want to consider a reinstallation — sometimes things just go wrong, and this helps resolve problems pretty frequently. Thank you so much for your response. Is there a Kodi tutorial or user guide that you can recommend?
I think I installed addons from the official Kodi repo and they work. But I am not sure how to get a movie addon from the Kodi repo. When I go to addons, all the ones I installed show up. Yoda and Indigo were the only addons I had until I added some per your suggestion.
I assumed they were installed when I installed Kodi. In any event, Yoda is the one I used to search for new movies. Is that correct or should I be using another movie addon? Also, are there addons for live tv? No problem! Whenever you want to watch something, you have to go into your chosen addon and search for it.
I recently completed the recommended update that came available on October 16th for my xbmx media box. This has never happened with any recommended update before, any ideas. I am using Kodi on windows laptop. Kodi stop working after couple of minutes every time. At the same time it works perfect for live streaming. Any help is highly appreciated. That should fix this issue. I recently tried to watch the BBC iplayer livestream and it did not work. Check the log for more information about this message.
I also use a VPN. I run Kodi Quite a few have difficulty unblocking the iPlayer. Also, can you check and see if the addon has any available updates? It worked before I did the suggested update.. Just uninstall and download the correct version here:.
Trying to install no limits, but I have no idea what the deal is. Did a fresh install. After it installs and i put kodi on nothing happens. I go to install from zip file again but there is nothing there. Its like it never downloaded it. I have the newest version of Kodi on my Nvidia shield.
I have downloaded 1 million repositories but I cannot get them into my files to where Kodi realizes it has anything in it. So I can turn Kodi on, jack with repositories and files for as long as I decide to, then turn it off. That is all that I can do. To add a repository, you just go to Add-ons, then click the box icon in the top left, then hit Install from zip file and browse to wherever you saved the repo. Any other repo installation should work the exact same way.
Can you see if this works? Some flashed up an icon like the no limits wizard did. They were all repos I was able to find within Kodi. Can you click on root filesystem and see if you can navigate your way to the downloads folder from there?
Just external storage, fusion add-on, network file system, root file sys, zeroconf browser. Kodi actually only comes with one repo installed — the official Kodi repo. Hi Andrew, definately a strange issue. Also, you installed No Limits, then reinstalled Kodi? Was there something wrong with it?
Tried jarvis v16 , krypton v17 to see if it is the kodi program the problem. But all the same problem. If so, try going into the settings menu and seeing if there are any options other than Confluence.
Have you tried installing No Limits, then shutting Kodi down using the power options menu, instead of unplugging it? Usually, they come with all kinds of unofficial addons pre-installed, and they make troubleshooting quite a bit more difficult.
I dont understand? Everytime is the same , i deleted and when i reinstall it , i open it and after 10 secs again stuck, dont give you even time to go to settings or to add the source. Hi, is it a Windows laptop? If so, we can take a look at the log file.
If you copy and paste this into pastebin. Thanks for the tip about the addons. Mine was names addons All other articles or videos I look at to resolve this just said to clear the data and then then start reinstalling after Kodi launches. Whentrying to instal an addon, when i try to open source, i get a message — remote share — network not connected.
Would like toknow how to correct it. Hello Ian my Kodi recently disappeared and i had the guy who i bought it from reinstalled it. Greetings, How come in Kodi in system settings in display section my resolution is only xp how can I change it to xp.
