Hi, How can I send text to an Edit Text control (or clear it) in one of the kodi xml windows/dialogs? My purpose is to catch the Keyboard dialog and send him the text for searching. (Assuming that I know their ID's) Thanks.

Hey all,

I've recently been introduced to the world of Kodi through side-loading on a FireTV2. I've been very happy with the performance of the FireTV and even managed to get the VPN running, but the lack of ability to record LiveTV is a deal-breaker. From what I have read it looks like recording (DVR) of LiveTV is either not possible or extremely difficult on an Android box. Is that correct?

Assuming so, I'm considering an Asus Chromebox or building/buying a HTPC. Here are my general wants/needs for the Kodi setup:

• $400 or less price point if possible
• Easy for my non tech-savvy SO to navigate, record, use guide, etc.
• Record legal Live IPTV through Kodi
• Schedule & Record future Live TV (either IPTV or OTA digital antenna) through Kodi
• Access my Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu
• 1080p is sufficient for now (upgradability to 4k a plus)
  

I've read some good info about the latest Intel Kaby Lake architecture including the new MSI, Gigabyte, etc. barebones systems. I also am open to building a custom HTPC. The HTPC price point is a little more than I would like to spend but it is definitely doable. I believe for 1080p purposes I could easily get away with an older i3 architecture so maybe that is something to consider as well.

So...what would you knowledgable folks recommend? A little direction to help me narrow down my best options would be extremely helpful.

Thanks in advance!!

Hello everyone, I was just given a D-Link DNS-321 with two drives. I checked the firmware on the unit and it has the most up to date. I have one Think Pad running CentOS-6.8 and another running CentOS-5.11, they both mounted the NFS share with very li...

I would like to be able to hide some items in the recently added page (and what shows up on the main screen). Perhaps as an additional option in the context menu, so I can just right click and hide from recently watched.

Topic says it all. Every time I add my TV Show directory to Kodi, (and this happens with each Kodi version) the TVDB scan determines every TV Show folder is Varan-TV. It creates one folder called "Varan-TV", and places every episode from several diffe...
