Installed Kodi on my Sony Bravia TV via Google Playstore. I thought I'd give it a try as it could mean getting rid of my dedicated Kodi box (Acer RL70). I'm hardwired into my network so contention isn't an issue however I noticed that when streaming ...

Hi! I am an amazon fire tv stick user. When I try to watch a movie, there is a crackling sound in the audio. I've tried many things but can't find a fix. Please help!

Hi. I just installed kodi on RPI3 and everything works fine, but movie/picture thumbnails are not generated? I am not using libraries, just browsing the SMB shared drive from a Synology NAS. This worked fine on an old XBMC I was using until now on ...

When I open Kodi on my Macbook a message pops up that says "Help Tip Mouse usage is not supported. Please disable it from Settings>System>Input Devices>"Enable mouse and Touch Screen support"." I can't do anything except hit enter to close the...

Device: Amazon Fire TV Stick
Kodi version: 17 "Krypton" beta
Data source: SMB, connected to my NAS

My movie folder structure consists of one folder per movie under which I typically have the following files:

• Movie_Name.avi
• Trailer.mp4
• Poster.jpg
  

I want to exclude all "Trailer.*" files from my library. Following this wiki, I created the following advancedsettings.xml file and placed it in my Fire TV Stick's "Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi/userdata/" folder, as per this other wiki.


I even tried a more restrictive, but also more straightforward regex that matches exactly the name of my trailer files, including capitalization, all with the same result.



However, nothing changes. I have tried all of the following to no avail:

• Restarting Kodi
• Rebooting my Fire TV Stick
• Refreshing my library
• Cleaning my library
• Completely removing and readding my library
  

By the way, whether I have an advancedsettings.xml file or not, the trailer files only show in the main Kodi screen where you see Movies, TV Shows, Music, etc. on the left-side menu and you see sections "Recently added movies", "Unwatched movies", etc. If I actually click on Movies to go to the main movie list, the trailers never show, with or without these changes above. You can see that in these screenshots below.





Any other ideas?

Goodmorning, I want to install Kdi on a Lumia 940 with 1gb of ram but specs say it need 2GB and can not install now. Is there a possibility to install anyway? I want to try because I think it works on my device.. And want to test anyway greetz Renzo

Just starting trying this stuff out, so I don't have too much experience with Kodi/OSMC or linux in general (if that matters). Trying to set up a raspberry pi with IPTV (using stalker client) as a christmas gift, but keep getting random crashes. They u...

What should I do

I would like to apologize if I make any mistake, english isn't my native language, this is my first post on this forum and its goddamn 2 AM where I live and I've trying (and failing) to fix this problem for about 4 hours straight

So I was using an old PC as a Media Center with an older Kodi version (Actually it was still called XBMC), I was using Windows XP because the PC is quite old and a friend of mine recommended not using Ubuntu at the time, for my surprise the PC could play 1080p files while the resolution of the screen was actually 1366/1360x768 (which as far as I know is the resolution of my TV, all my PCs recognize this one as the default), but I don't know what happened but suddenly XBMC couldn't download media info and after 6 month it just refused to open, so I thought It maybe would be worth trying an OS that is just made for Kodi, I've found out about LibreELEC and decided to try it out.

But I've found that its stuck on the resolution of 800x600, even worse is that the UI have some elements that are hidden in the border, its just weird, I've tried searching about but I haven't find anything that could actually help (I've found someone with the same graphics card with the same issue on OpenELEC and the solution was to import the config of a Kodi that actually runs on 1366x768, but I haven't mede the backup since I couldn't event open XBMC on XP), there's some thing about using a xrandr command in SSH, but I tried and it doesn't work, even the addmode and NewMode

My Specs(don't laugh):
-GeForce 6150SE nForce 430/integrated/SSE2
-OpenGL Version: 2.1.2 NVIDIA 304.131
-CPU: AMD Sempron™ Processor 140
-Memory 852MB

I know this is really shitty, but somehow with windows XP I could watch HD movies, and the only issue is that sometimes the movie would freeze for less than half a second and then continue, I would expect that with a OS made entirely of Kodi it would run even smoother than before

I have been using Metropolis for quite a while now and love it. I use it with NextPVR as my PVR client. I have the NextPVR server on its own separate Windows computer with a 6 Hauppauge tuners on two cards and an HDHomeRun as two more tuners. This allo...

In my addon, I have an image that takes up the width of the screen. As a feature of this, I would like to be able to click (or touch, as i'm using a touchscreen) to get the position of where the cursor pressed on the image. Then use that as a gauge f...

I am running Kodi Krypton on my iPad Air. I did a backup because everything is in place and working fine. But it will quit in 7 days as always. How do I copy my backup file to another device, so that i don't have to go through setting it up every time?

When setting content for movies there is a "Scan recursively" option but why is it not available for TV Shows? Also what exactly is "Scan recursively" for? Thanks

I hope that someone can help me with this. I am having issues with LIRC not starting on my KodiBox. The current situation is as follows: If I boot the box in to the Kodi session, LIRC and my RC6 mce remote do not work. Exiting from Kodi to the deskto...

I had this working perfectly 2 weeks ago, after a fresh OS (Ubuntu 16.04) and Kodi (17b6 & 18b1) install. I deliberately did not do any updates during that period, but the problem came back. So I did another fresh 16.04 install using( http://forum...
