Android TV Box (Xbmc/Kodi) Discussion Thread

[Meraxes]

I'm annoyed lol. Over past 2 weeks I started watching trailer park boys. I've watched seasons 1-9 and all the movies available.
Fucking love the show, I've had ants in my pants waiting for season 10. Seasons are released on Netflix in one shot.
I've just seen season 10 was on kodi so I started ep 1 and it was just a 10 minute walk around the set with bubbles. The other episodes ain't on anything on Kodiak yet. Fml
Who would just upload the first 10 minute episode and leave the rest?

yeah, I've had links like that before, it happens. The other day I tried one of the latest American Crime Story links, and a documentary of OJ came up, and not the series...pain in the ass. He did it, there's so much evidence. I used to think he might not have, but he did. Who else could it have been? Mark Furman being such an asshole is what got him not guilty, what a mess that was...last episode next week. Why Cuba Gooding junior?...no idea, he literally looks nothing like OJ...

Is there any way to use Kodi on multiple monitors without duplicating them? I normally use my desktop and tv as extended desktop, and just display video on the TV, however this doesnt work with Kodi, only duplicating the displays, so I cant do anything else on the PC while it runs. Looking for a workaround or way to change the video output to different display.

no, I don't think so. I've always known it as 1 device for 1 tv. So if you hooked up your HDMI from your desktop to your tv, and are using that as your device, then I imagine you would have to exit Kodi, if you wanted to go to another site.

It's the same with my Nvidia Shield...If I want to come to icmag and come talk to you guys, I have to exit Kodi.

Some devices could be different, I'm not 100%...

There's 1000's of channels on free ones, so I'm happy with what I got. Thanks, but respectfully, that sounds a little too much like an ad, so I would advise caution with pushing that too hard...just looking out

Difference is instead of having 15 different add ons to search that go up an down have tons of dead links or mislabeled programs an shows everything just works and works extremely well all in one add on most times in HD. You dont even need to set up or use kodi. Comparing ruya servers to free streams is like tryin to say an old nag an a race horse are the same cause they are both horses but if you rode em its a whole different experience!!!!
Check my profile bro im not here to spam ads or sell anything, i apologize for coming off that way!
ive got pics coming out of my ears an test grows rollin for breeders here an the whole shot, im a grower first and foremost thats my LIFE.
I suppose it did sound addish tho but i was really just tryin to share i dont sell the subs myself even just have a seller i trust who has been very reliable and gives great deals, Im a home theater nut and was super stoked on my experience so i thought i would try an hook others up with the same.
Why dont i just say, check out a ruya server somewhere guys anywhere then tell me your free add ons compare. They just simply dont.
I do plenty of work in my garden.
i guess im lazy id happily pay a dollar a day for the convenience and reliability factors but your free of course to make your own call.
If a mod feels like im pushin the sales pitch here delete my posts and you all have my apologies if ive broken rules in my excitement. Im here on ic to learn hang out an maybe help someone else along the way when i can, simple as that.

Yea you can with a fancy video card and special cables you can use a multiple monitor set up and have a different program on each screen(kodi on one an your windows work screen on the other), been a while since i set it up but it can be done.
I used to run osx an windows side by side on the same system this way.
I think thats what you mean?
Or do you mean 1 kodi displaying one channel to one tv and a different one to another?
If thats what you mean thats not possible.

That's what I figured, you just misarticulated the framing of the post. I love to hear about new tech, and I'm sure you're a fine grower, hadn't crossed my mind. I myself was worried, in the beginning of this thread, that I was pushing Kodi itself too hard, and sound too much like an adman. Funny how that works...

Youtubers killed TV Time. When it was released, Youtubers flooded in with videos on how the source for TV Time was USTVnow, so the developer pulled it. So between pre-loaded box sellers, and people not being able to keep their fuckin mouth shut on youtube, it's killing addons...TvTime was one of the best I've seen in a while, and is was live for a week...

My live-mix add on has stopped working, tried uninstall and reinstalling but still not working,

Mine's working ok, 3 out of 4 channels I tried were online. Try updating the Fusion repository, in the install from repo section of settings. With Fusion addons sometimes you wake up the next morning and they've been updated. Live Mix is still in development stages, and is updated frequently, usually every few days or so...

BBC1- working
BBC2- working
Comedy Central- working
Discovery History- not working

The 4 I tried ^^^

You talking about Isengard? You should update to Jarvis, they cleaned it up a bit, and added auto update for addons.

This really sucks, it was a great addon. People are idiots. I ordered the firestick. It will be here wednesday along with the replacement cooltube for my flower room. I cant wait to see how much better it does than the raspberry pi!

Yeah Kodi, and TvAddons are pulling their hair out. It's one thing to make an instructional video, it's another to talk about where links originate. I hear they are fast, I'm sure you'll like it. 20,000 something antutu score if I remember right...

Edit: Kodi and TvAddons have no association, and have nothing to do with eachother.

Running TVMC I think it is from tvaddons on a mx or mq 8 pro? Isengard 16? and everything works hunky dory. On pc and separate box upstairs.

yeah the latest version of Kodi is Jarvis. It went stable a month or two ago, Isengard's now the old one. The TVMC (TvAddons wizard) is what I use, I love it, it's the most user friendly/easily customizable build imo...

Batman vs superman is on the SALTS addon in 720. Remastered 720 but still very watchable wven for a movie as dark as this one is most of the time.

Prosports worked perfect tonight for the ncaa champ. That last minute of the game was the craziest basketball I've probably ever seen, and a buzzer-beater 3...good for Nova

Nugs, yeah I've only found cloudy screeners so far, I'll check it out, Salts updated today too

sorry, no idea if someone has already answered.
is it possible to have a multi screen setup in kodi.

you can even setup a preferred monitor, where to use kodi and leave the other "blank" or with whatever you want on it.

here the option you've to looking for:

- Display Mode
Display Kodi in a window, or fullscreen on the selected screen.
-Display/Resolution
Changes the resolution that the User Interface is displayed in.
-Use a fullscreen window rather than true fullscreen
...when active (Windows only). Does not use the DirectX fullscreen mode. The main benefit is for multi-screen configurations, where Kodi can be used at the same time as other applications without automatically minimizing. Uses a bit more resources and playback may be slightly less smooth.
-Blank other displays
In a multi-screen configuration, the screens where Kodi is not displayed are blacked out.

those info were found on kodiwiki.
