Hi! I store my movies on a network - drive via LAN-Cable and I'm using OSMC on the Raspi-2. In the earlier Jarvis-versions the problem didn't exist. All was fine. Since a small Jarvis-update (unfortunately I don't know which it was) the problem occur...

Hey, i am new at skinning in kodi, but i wonder if it is possible to put a custom keymap in a keyboard.xml or like inside the skin, so people don't need to download both the skin and the keymap and know where to place it. Thanks in advance

Hi guys, I use Kodi 17.1 Windows Store version on Windows 10 Pro x64. I have SickRage and CouchPotato installed on my NAS. I forwarded the Kodi port (8080) in my router to my computer and I configured the IP address, port and username/password of my K...

Thought I'd share these Movie Genre Icons I created for use with the Aeon MQ7 Skin, or most any other skin. They are larger... for use with HD displays. They look good with the Aeon MQ7 movie cases. I don't know how to actually implement them into the ...

Hi, I've got an issue with my media player. Recently upgraded my living room media player to Odroid C2 running Libreelec 8.0 and Kodi 17.(Had a Raspberry Pi 2 with Kodi 16 before.) Usually I had the automatic frame rate adaption on start/stop enabled...

Back in 2004/2005, I made a visit to my tech-savvy friends house to hang out on a Saturday afternoon. I was always up on all the latest tech but this guy was always a step ahead of me. I noticed he had this program on his TV that I had never seen before & asked him what it was I was looking at. That was the first time I had seen or heard of XBMC.

I was so enthralled by everything he showed me that I went to Game Stop that day to buy a used XBOX console. This was the first gaming console I had purchased since Super Nintendo in the early 90's. I brought the XBOX back to his house so he could 'mod the chip' & set up XBMC on my newly purchased machine. In the following weeks I did a ton of reading up to further my knowledge of this program & came across web sites selling customization pieces to make the XBOX unique. I purchased a crystal clear case & threw in a 750GB hard drive & have been a loyal XBMC user ever since.

I eventually moved on to using XBMC on a Zotac Zbox ID34BR connected to a 4 bay HDD enclosure housing 15TB of media connected via USB, as well as Kodi on my Android phone, my Amazon Fire tablet, & my RaspberryPi in my bedroom. Anyone who came to my house always asked me what it was they were seeing on my TV & I didn't mind because I loved telling people about Kodi.

Now that I got the story of my love affair with Kodi out of the way, I can get to the point of this topic. Someone, somehow needs to put an end to the absurd popularity of people using / selling Kodi on the Amazon Fire Stick or whatever other popular devices that are being used to stream illegal content. It is beyond ridiculous how many Fire Stick owners I overhear talking about Kodi & how they saw this movie that is still in the movie theater or watched that for free or this for free & are canceling their cable, etc. People that have been to my house on more than one occasion, who have seen Kodi on my TV & have asked me about it, I hear talking how they just bought an Amazon Fire stick with Kodi & how great it is. I ask them; "Don't you remember seeing Kodi & asking me about it when you came to my house that time?" They had no idea it was the same thing. They are amazed when I tell them that Kodi has other uses besides streaming illegal content & how I have been using it for almost 15 years & it originated on the first XBOX. They didn't even know that Kodi could be installed on other devices besides the stick, or on a computer for that matter.

I have a friend who sells the Kodi installed Amazon Fire sticks for $120. His sales pitch is telling people it is like an illegal cable box (if you guys remember, this was a big thing 20 or so years ago that you could buy to get all the cable channels). Anyway, he came over my place one night to hang out & we got to talking about the Fire Stick. I was never big on using add-ons, I especially have never installed any for the purpose of illegal streaming; not because I am I a strict law abiding citizen, but because I know the quality of the content & have no desire to watch someone in a movie theater recording the screen with a video camera. Anyway, after he talked & talked it up, I said he could install it while I ran out for a pack of smokes. I assumed that all he was going to do was install some sketchy add-on that I could easily uninstall if I didn't like it. When I returned to my house to check out what everyone has been raving about lately, I came to find he totally wiped out my version of Kodi & replaced it with some other version bundled with all the illegal streaming add-ons. The home screen was a mess, icons and shit everywhere. All my settings were gone. All my sources gone. Everything. Apparently, he did not know you could just install these add-ons by themselves. Needless to say I was furious.

After I calmed down, he was still trying to tell me how great & how much better his version of Kodi was than what I had & he started showing me these add-ons. One of them he couldn't even get to launch. When he finally got one working, he pulled up content from an HBO link. I thought I was watching a 3rd generation VHS tape. This was followed by a broken link, then another broken link & so on. This is tarnishing the Kodi name & how great it is. I am worried that even though none of this is Kodi's fault that eventually Kodi will be sued & shut down. I am not even exaggerating when I say how many people I know or hear talking about their Kodi installed Amazon Fire stick. It is extremely popular.

People think that Kodi / the Fire Stick / illegal streaming go hand-in-hand. I am sure the developers are troubled by this & I have read some articles concerning it on Kodi's page but what is being done? They suggest informing people that the illegal streaming is done by 3rd party apps & not Kodi, but people look dumbfounded when I try explaining this.
