Addons or links within addons failing, is quite the norm... This is cuz, such content are maintained by regular folks with jobs, lives etc... The key is to have alternatives, so if one is down, switch....

oh I see......so do I wait and see or delete the add on?

may also be becos of small memory.

google and dig a bit, u will know how small it is.

can do a a few simple apps.

if u load more incl kodi, u will surely run out of memory.

check settings for available memory left for use.

ya.....I notice it only have 2G space available.... I only install 7 basic apps (kodi, ES file, mx player, youtube, astro OTG, G drive, holo) smile.gif

You can have additional space by moving your kodi data out to sdcard.

Exodus, pheonix, oblivion, mr network, adriansupertv.... working but not 100%.

Well, u never get all addons and all links working.

So, the key is to have enough addons and apps as alternatives.

It is for this reason a good box with sufficient memory is impt.

This will become apparent to you during major events like worldcup or olympics.

Noted, will test on your recommendations add on

Hi.. I'm facing operation fail during step 2 as bellow.


In the root directory of the internal storage of your device, usually just mnt/sdcard (not mnt/sdcard/root) create a plain text file called: xbmc_env.properties

PIs advice

Create a text file named "xbmc_env.properties" not "xbmc_env.properties.txt". This has to be stored in the root directory.
*
thanks for the advice, but im still confuse.

this is what im doing....

1. create NEW text file and type (xbmc.data=/storage/sdcard0/external_sdcard/kodi_data).... but for my case (using hypptv box) i type this (xbmc.data=/mnt/mmcblk1/mmcblk1p1/kodi_data).
2. save file and by defult the file will become .txt (xbmc_env.properties.txt) and i rename it to xbmc_env.properties
3. Place the file (xbmc_env.properties) at device under mnt/sdcard.
4. Copy the .kodi directory from /sdcard/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/ to the same location as above (step 3).

am i doing this correctly?

BTW, my hypptv box is NOT rooted....can this be done?

please advice

Having rooted my *nifi box, I regretted it because As*ro On The Go app cant run on rooted devices. For the *nifi box, how much you tinker with it, the storage limitation still creeps up in the end.

I have VPN, what addons require VPN to work?
*
I only installed AOTG, ESFile, Google Drive, youtube, MX player, Holo VPN, cartoon hd and Kodi (with add on AZ drama, popcorn time, exodus). With all this, time being i am happy with it and not going install anything unless something good to add on. Now my hyyptv box remain at 500mb free space.

So it is a standalone app, not kodi addon, right?

Live tv apps in SD... plenty...

this question does not have a single simple answer.

theoretically, 30mbps = 3.75MBps = 225MB/min =13.5GB/hr

that speed can easily get u a full HD video, theoretically.

in fact, that speed will give u uhd4K dolby digital 5.1 with netflix , no problem.

but... whether kodi or other apps, the factors incl:

.. yr incoming may not be stable or consistent.
.. yr wifi connectivity may be poor.
.. the traffic may be heavy.
.. there may be geoblocks.
.. there may be local ISP blocks.
.. the final site that the link goes to is poorly maintained.
.. yr device hardware/chipset/firmware/memory may be poor

i use an androidtv 5.1 on wifi and an android box 4.4 on ethernet, both with ample memory - similar performance.

generally speaking, i do not have problems with SD whether kodi or other apps.

for HD, standalone apps, a lot of them work well in HD.

for HD, there are far fewer HD addons/links/sites that work reliably on KODI.

to me, that is becos KODI is more of a free-for-all platform for enthusiasts to experiment, learn and build, come and go quick.

the standalone apps, tend to be more professional and hold out much better and longer.

Thanks for the advice, i have no issue when streaming movies/drama on 1080 quality (exodus, ICdrama, Carton HD...).
buffering only happen when i stream LIVE TV (Oblivion) such as CNBC, CNN, HBO HD and so on..... rclxub.gif

For the record, right now... oblivion usa live tv is working very well.

Cnn, cnbc, amc, hbo, nat geo, food network.... 720 HD, all working good.

Nice treat, but more often than not, cant get them at all.

2mbps is low, may not get much whether kodi or other apps.

for chinese stuff with canto audio and/or eng subs, ic drama is the best u can get on kodi now. u can try dramago, drama24h, dramanice too.

mandarin stuff... youku, bili, mango, cibn, letv, etc. are legit iptv. they don't work on kodi. but u can try the individual apps - can get something but not all since they are paid iptv, need membership/susbcription for full access. check at shafa.com. there used to be many "integrated" sites that work well but are getting shut down as a result of piracy control. so, it is now harder to get good stuff for free.
u mean those asian live tv channels in mr network tv?

all of them used to work before but many not maintained now or u need to register/pay for it.
taiwan, hk live tv is hard to get, china live tv is easy to get.
*
The addon is call (Asian TVs) inside got HK & TW channel selection.... ya and i notice only china live tv is available.

Thanks for sharing your experience.
