Hey guys something is wrong now after my fail attempt to backup/restore kodi last nite.

Now when i want to watch anything, it will popup a window to download sources and takes like 30-40 seconds or more.

How do i make the sources pre-loaded back as usual?
Do i need to install back the repos?

Press the letter "O" on your keyboard. Its not exactly download speed but you can see the size of cached data and % of cache utilized. How fast it fills up depends on your current net connection and source.

What sources...addon...internet speed...?? Plus a bunch of other possible reasons... You can always do a fresh start.. wipe data/uninstall and reinstall KODI.

I guess u not sure wat im talking about.
Here is a pix.

when u chosen a movie/drama u try to play, it would show u a list of sources/provider or wat u call it, then u choose and it loads right?

So mine now doesnt load all the sources but each movie/drama also it will download then only i get to see the source/provider only then i can start watching.

Btw "wipe data/reinstall" isnt a solution if im planning to backup/restore or mass deploy into many devices right?

Oh i know what I'm talking about. I asked you to give more details, rather than just saying sources not working or not being able to watch "anything". You do realize that files can be played off local and smb shares etc. By now, you should know how KODI works. Its just a box and what you do inside the box is up to you. You seem to be complaining about the Genesis addon (alone?), its performance depends on your hardware, what version of Genesis you are running, your internet speed (how fast it takes to pull list of sources) and priority of sources setup in settings. Here's my advice, especially if you plan on "mass deployment". Wipe your KODI installation, if you set it up yourself, then it should be easy to re-setup. When satisfied, do a backup and test on another installation. For best results, look into creating a custom build or wizard. Doing this, gives you an easy zip file, install from zip and kodi extracts everything into the right places.

Many thanks for the tip!

How to do that on TV Box without keyboard? Solution - get a keyboard! Ha.

Cheerio.

Much welcome. I'm unaware of any other way to simulate that key press without an actual keyboard, but then you've already answered your question.. Alternatively, check this out. It's a speed test within KODI, should at least tell how much bandwidth KODI has access to at the moment from the max speed.

Thanks. Saw the youtube on that last night.

Cheerio.

the simplest way is to save a copy of org.xbmc.kodi.

all kodi, user data, fav - everything u have done is in this master folder of kodi activity.

for androids, path is: home/android/data/org.xbmc.kodi

using es file explorer, copy from device to usb, then use it to overwrite after deleting and reinstalling or new.

works 100% if same kodi version. if different, may hv some incompatibilty for some addons.

"copies" should work like original.

Came across genesis lazarus this afternoon. Tried to install but says server down. Like to know whether any one here has installed it? The file location please?

I think this G Lazarus is faster. See youtube for more infor.

Cheerio.

well as i said the devs is fighting over the devs(read previous post)

lambda-the original genesis devs is spreading news that genesis lazarus is stealing his/her/it source code.. genesis lazarus well they dont said anything but just keep quiet...

I did not see your post on this.

Now I understand.

Thanks.

haha its ok

dulu zeus gaduh dengan semua addon even vdubt dan mikey yg macho(kalau rupanya betullah kat twitter) pun merajuk, tutup addon sekarang dah baik sama adam mi8lburn dan dah gabung bawah shadowcrew

Sorry, I think it's just the recorded semis.

Official KODI 15.2 Isengard has been released on KODI's downloads page and the Google Play Store.

Stupid question here, I tried to check to see which version I have now. Opened up Genesis (PC) and can't find a place where it shows the version.

On TV box, on Genesis startup, it shows a text file with version description. Does it mean that it has automatically updated in TV box?

Thanks.

To check the installed KODI version... Launch KODI, go to Settings and then System Info... Version is displayed there. As for the Genesis addon, in your list of video addons, highlight or select Genesis, hold down or press "C", context menu will pop-up, select "Add-on Information". The currently installed version and update button is displayed.
