Hello all. I have two Matricom devices which I used to normally play H.264 files for and worked flawlessly. I have Gbox Q and Q2 (S802, S812 platforms). I've recently installed MythTV for live TV over HDHomerun and was not able to get MPEG 1080i to wor...

Hi, is there a way to search or filter the channel list in PVR IPTV Simple Client? It's not convenient to scroll a long list of channels to look for the needed one (unfortunately I have no EPG at present). AD

Hello, I would like to know if there is any possibility of adding an option to clean the video db on a per show basis? Sometimes I will remove an episode(s) from one show, replacing them with others (perhaps joined or split, or better quality or whate...

Every other time I start KODI the display is too large for both my computer screen and Television. If I shut it down and restart it, it fits. I cannot start it twice in a row...(I hope this makes sense) How can I fix this?

Hi,

Introduction:
My name is Roht kumar and I am an undergraduate student in Computer Science program(2nd year) at Dr. B. R. Ambedkar National Institute of Technology Jalandhar, India.I am very much interested to work on "Add Python3 Support" and “Web Browser in Kodi” projects. I joined this open source adventure from january of this year itself, it is fun as well as I am learning new things everyday. My github at https://github.com/rohit-rk. I am comfortable working with C, C++, Python, Mysql, Mongodb, Oracle 10g(Working on it as part of curriculum), prefer to work on both Linux and windows. I am very good at understanding others code, which i think makes me a good candidate.

As I mentioned two projects, but I am specifically interested in working on adding Python 3 support. The reason is strange, but makes me feel confident. When i started with python, I was confused like which version to choose. I did lot of research then came up to a point of learning both. So first i, started with python 3.5 and then python 2.7. Working on version 3 was cooler and easier. Just to mention, Python 3 removing support of u'' strings is great help as it is headache to me(personal views). I came to know that many major packages have been ported to python3 like: NumPy, SciPy, Django, Flask, PIL to Pillow, ,py2exe ,etc. Still, many prefer to use Python2. With Python 3 being the future of Python while Python 2 in active use, I think having support for both would be a good idea.
Even the python communites support for both. There is this six compatibility package, a key utility for supporting Python 2 and Python 3 in a single code for small projects. But working for an organization and a huge code base will be a difficult, interesting task to tackle as well as i’ll get to learn a lot on the way, which i like the most.

Query:
I am writing to discuss the details and ask for advice on this. Could you please let me know more info about this project and repositories as i am new to KODI ?. Specifically, what are the requirements? Also, could you please let me know how I should start to get involved and contribute?

I am aware of the fact that it is a little bit too late to discuss this but I just learned that KODI is selected for Google Summer of Code and found a perfect project for my skillset. Well, this is about getting involved and contributing kind’a query, will send proposal soon.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi Guys, I was wondering, since Kodi is working amazing on my apple tv 4: can I hook up a external HDD or a USB Drive to the USB-C Port on the Apple TV and access the Files If it's not working: how about putting files on an time capsule and access it...

Before starting this thread I'd like to mention that this skin wouldn't be here if it wasn't because of the hard work of Pecinko, credits go to him. As you all probably know Quartz was originally created by Pecinko. After putting all his effort in Qua...

This Add-on allows you to sync your Music Album and Track ratings to Kodi from TheAudioDB website. It works similar to how the Trakt.tv Add-on does with video files. Basically you can rate any tunes and albums you like, then those are pushed down to...

Estuary skin. Main menu. After each use of an app in the add-ons group the icon for the last used app moves to the first spot. How can I keep them in a static order that doesn't change?.

Good morning, I have a kodi kryptonite on a raspberry pi 2 machine. After the new updates and downloads, iptv66 is not downloading! I have no tv channels. On the iptv66 website, my routes and mac address is correct. PVR is not loading on the kodi en...

Hi I see an option under PVR section that says "Advanced: use custom folder with epg genre images" I tried searching google for websites for genre images but with no luck, could anybody signpost me to websites where I could get EPG genre images? Appr...

I have an older system that I turned into a media server and works great. Debated upgrading, getting a board with build in HDMI, but hard to warrant an upgrade when what I have handles everything just fine.

I did swap it out from the 15yr old case it was in because it was a tower with 1x80mm fan, and new power supply because the old one was noisy. The case though, is VERY noisy. Silverstone Grandia G09. It has space for 2x120mm fans on each side and 2x80mm on the rear, and a vent on top, and the back of the main hard drive faces to front bezel, so every bit of noise the components make comes out.

Onboard video would be great but no HDMI on this older board.

I plan to get case dampening for the top and front bezel to help with some of the noise, was looking at car audio dampening because cheaper and thickener/denser than the Silverstone stuff... though interesting that the very noisy case is made by the same place that makes case dampening materials.

CPU fan, stock intel from 8yrs ago I think if replaced with one like this it would reduce some noise.

Video card... I have my old GT 650 Ti Boost dual fan card in the computer which for movies, is overkill. I was looking to swap to a fanless card, like the GeForce GT710 2GB which is a big step down from my card, but should be enough to run movies, correct? Says DirectX12, up to 4K video... looking to stay under $75CAD if possible, and case has space for a full size card so not limited to a low-profile. Any suggestions?

Actually, any suggestions in general... silencing the case, decent quiet CPU fan, cheap fanless video card?

Not looking to spend a lot... else may as well upgrade... but if can keep around $100CAD for some decent sound reduction, that would be great.Every tick and chatter of the hard drive and the cpu/gpu fans just echoes out the sides of that case... very annoying. Looks nice though.
