Did anyone else find that the automatic Amazon FireTV update yesterday wiped out all their saved Favorites and also totally wiped out their skin and reverted Kodi right back to Confulence??!! I finally got my Chroma skin and FAVORITES all arranged wit...

Hi Wondering if someone could help me. I have android box & it's stopped working it keeps saying check log file when I try to click on something to watch. I read online to do a log file scan thing & it said http://paste.ubuntu.com/23625156/ C...

Hello, first i want to mention that I've done my research before posting here. I'm still unable to find what i need in a NUC form factor.

My current Setup:
Asus Chromebox, booting Windows 10 off an external hdd (yeah i know why not linux, well let me tell you my box has an odd bug that any linux distro I've tested fully hang after +-20 minutes of whatching any type of video, eather streaming or playing content from a browser or kodi ... doesn't matter. The only linux distro that doesn't hang and works well is ChromeOS, so im limited to that and Windows which also works well). I want to give this box with ChromeOS to my dad and purchase a better box.

What i need:
Mini PC or NUC, must have Intel chip with also good CPU performance not just GPU (No Atom architecture based), quad core if possible, able to hw decode upto 1080p HEVC 8bit (chromebox can just software decode upto 720p hevc 8bit), 2 x SODIMM slots, budget friendly and BAREBONES.

My Options:
Broadwell: fritsch wrote "i would not invest in anything broadwell based". No hevc 8bit hw decoding.
Braswell: From what I've read this should work. I've read the " Intel Braswell boxes Compilation" http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=229096, but the best options are eather Out of Stock, Not available in the US or has lots of bad reviews (like the Intel NUCs).
Skylake: Unless i find a box with HDMI 2.0, HDR i don't see why i should pick this
Kaby Lake: Way too new and expensive for sure.

I want to mention that for what i do on the Chromebox with Windows 10 is enough for me really, it performs well, i just want a similar performance box that can handle 1080p hevc 8bit without a hassle and with full Windows support.

Thank you in advance!

Thanks for some info.

I have a Raspberry Pi running KODI on top of OSMC. It is a pretty recent release because it usually auto-updates on restart. There is a 1TB USB disk connected to the Pi which holds all of the MP4 video files in a suitable directory structure. To play ...

I’ve got an irritating issue with live TV played via short cuts (Blue Star at bottom left) where by using a shortcut always shows the Resume sub menu at 00:10:26 and neither option (Resume or Start from Beginning) responds.

I have cleared the caches as follows:
Advanced Settings / Apps / XBMC for Minx / Clear Cache
System / Settings / Addons / My Addons / Video Addons / Configure / Clear Cache
Videos / Add-ons/ Add-On Settings / General / Clear Cache
.. and re booted each time, but every time I try to play BBC or ITV from the short cut menu the same thing happens.

I’m not sure it is actually an add-on issue but more of an XBMC issue, because if I try to play them through the “main” menu (Videos/Add-Ons/ etc / etc they play OK and don’t throw up the Resume sub menu..
Equally any other video hosted on my LAN plays OK.

System: Minix Neo U1. Android 5.1.1 XBMC 15.3 GIT: 2015-12-30-29f320c. XBMC for Minix Version15.3.

Any advice on how to reset the resume point would be welcome. Thanks in advance.

Hi, No longer seem to have "Mark as read" option on my submenu for video items. Doesn't seem to be skin specific - am I missing something? Sorry if it's a stupid question!

Hi, some time ago I read Kodi was built to read for HD videos. Maybe are UHD (4K) videos not too much good for Kodi too? Thanks

Hi, I use Sony Bravia TV 4K 65" (Sony KD-65X8509C) and I watch above all UHD (4K) videos. I have my files inside an esternal hard disk connected by USB cable to the TV. There are many Kodi files x32 and x64, etc. ... it is a jungle for me. Can you te...

Apologies if this is already out there in the wild. Results from searching yielded nothing of use. As part of Krypton, the idea behind expressions is a godsend. Seemingly they do not work as a value condition in a variable though despite first glance ...
