Hi maybe the copy of exodus has not updated properly, I personally use this in Kodi seo-michael.co.uk/tutorial-how-to-install-ares-wizard-kodi/ it updates all the apps including itself and there are many builds you can use in the build list, I have been using the Apollo builds.

[Q]

I now feel old, VERY old...
I've read through all of this and not much makes any sense (and I'm an ex pc engineer)

I think my main problem would be that down ere in Kernowland internet is still powered by steam, even Youtube videos buffer constantly, and I dont dare click the HD option.

But my question is...
What can you actually download & watch? someone mentioned S K Y well can you actually watch anything other than the free to air stuff?

I was the same as you but gave it a go and have watched 2 or 3 new films and some tv box sets but there is a lot more that that on it.

Hope someone can give me some advice on where to go next. Got an MX111 some time ago and have been happy with it up till now. I have been downloading and watching TV series through exodus and all was well until recently. It started off by me getting only part programme downloads to an sd card but figured out that I was over filling it. Cleared it out and also cleared the cache. Have tried bigger card and also a flash drive but am still getting problems, either not enough download to produce a thumbnail or the programme only playing approx half way through, Have reached hair pulling out stage and believe me have little enough to start off with. Have also spent long enough on line but cannot find anybody else having the same problem or a cure. Any advice will be greatly received especially if it is not too hard to follow for someone who is slow of thinking. Cheers in advance.

I am by no means an expert with Kodi or Android boxes but I do know that they don't like some of the larger capacity memory cards. You need to check what the maximum size is that yours supports. Also you say you download stuff to watch, does the live streaming work OK? Also you could download on your PC with Kodi installed on that, put it on the memory card then watch on your box.

IMO....

There is no need to download any content from Kodi...

The programmes,films etc are always stored on their servers, so you can watch anytime.

For clearing out thumbnails,cache and  packages, I use the 'Maintenance' section on a Program
called 'Ares Project'

The 'Maintenance' section is at 4.11 in this clip...

Hi Q

As far as I know, Exodus is the only 'Add-on', that supports downloading.

Exodus is an add-on or 'App' that streams movies (new and old) also TV Series...

Regarding watching other content on Kodi..

Basically, a lot is watching movies and tv series and live tv ..

A good add on is 'UK Turks' - he has a section on Comedy DVD's, Music Concerts etc

Run this on a windows pc's

Its got an idiot proof version that installs and configures kodi to have all the top add on's enabled

I use it to replace the missing media player in windows 10, honest guv

I personally found the difference between running Kodi on a windows pc and a satans android box, like night and day for both sound and picture quality, plus the buffering issues are gone

No storage problems either

[Q]

I've had a Revo in my lounge for a few years now, it doesn't get used much now, it uses XBMC to play the videos from my backup drive.

I suppose I could try Kodi on that?

[Lee]

An Acer Revo should nail it
Had kodi run on most windows operating systems
The only operating system I had a glitch with, was a windows vista pc, that did not support the latest direct x
It was a simple case of loading an older Kodi version

I've just put the beast on mine. Looks good. Still can't get a stream on Swiss Army Man though

No clue can you provide one.

New film with Daniel Radcliffe

[joeten]

Ahh, did you try UK Turk.

Skip that just looked no sign

[Deleted]

Tried em all. It'll be there next week, just me being impatient. I'm watching star wars at the moment. So much choice, but seen a lot already

[joeten]

Did you try UStvnow for shows.
