HEVC Bluray from Entertainment Repo

I have been looking over this for a few hours and I have to say I am impressed on several levels – remember this is a beta release. So whats good? There are movies and tv show boxsets – all the main shows, all HD; most links play – though its not a 1 click addon, this has much more to offer, including choosing 720 or 1080 links. Streams are, for the most part reliable and stable, HD links can get a bit “iffy” to say the least sometimes.

There is a 3D section, but few of the links work at this point, sadly.

The Big Plus

Ok, the really big deal here, is the use of high efficency compression, dont panic, I wont bore you with technical guff i promise – in simple terms you get 1080 films (and tv shows) in a 600 kbps stream – yup, less than 1mbps for a HD movie! Impressive huh? This will be a real goto addon for those on slow or lower speed connections, those devices that are wifi only, like sticks that just wont play 1080 stuff unless it can see the router (pita right?). There are a few things you need to know – but lets get this installed and I’ll add some pointers at the end.

Installing HEVC Bluray

This is from the Entertainment repo, so you can add from Ares Wizard, Fusion, Super Repo etc. Get the repo installed and come back here.

Wait for “add on enabled” notification

kodi add on HEVC bluray enabled

Ok you have it installed and can access this via video add ons as usual, however, i have added a couple of extra screens just to show where the super compressed HEVC files seem to be located.

HEVC Bluray Main Screen

kodi add on hevc bluray main screen

Select Latest 1080p – (720p works too)

Select a movie – this screen comes up

hevc bluray contents

You will see the “multiup.org” – this is where the HEVC files appear to be – the other llinks do work – but they dont appear to be highly compressed like the HEVC – this is important if you want HD movies in less than a 1mbps stream!

Let me know how you get on; If you need further support – head over to the Ares Forum

Super Favourites

This is not new and its amiss of me not to have added this sooner, but I started digging into a few things to do some advanced topics later and well, never realised the true potential of this add on; its always been on my “to do ” list and i have a feeling that despite Exodus not allowing its use, that SF will be used a lot more with the TV Portal release of its custom EPG app. You may have heard of the author, Spoyser, former lead ‘droid dev for team Kodi, so you know this is a solid stable addon. What Is Super Favourites? In a nutshell Super Favourites allows you to create you own custom Super-Add on with all the best bits of all your favourite add ons (with a few exceptions), along with the bits of Kodi that you use the most. In it’s simplest use case Super Favourites, acts very similar to the standard Kodi favourites in that you add items to it (in a couple of ways, see later), and can then view them in one easy to use list. However, whereas Kodi favourites is simply a...

Project Cypher

This is an add on thats been around for a while, with a mix of content, mostly that I haven’t used to be honest, but its recently started to produce some good live streams with I think makes it worthy of recommending. I worked through some of the content this morning and there is a mix of stuff, but of real interest to me personally is the quality of the live links. The other content such as Lingerie Football and Lingerie Fighting is unique to the add on (AFAIK), plus there plenty of horror under the “dark side” link and Serial Killer content too, should that be your thing.

Exodus - The Latest from Lambda

Its great to see Lambda back in the game, for many of us Genesis was so badly missed! Well fret not Exodus, the new offering from Lambda over at TVAddons, has delivered in buckets with the initial release; in fact I am 2 hours late typing this up as I spent so much time going through things…then i got sidetracked…ahem! Yes there are TONS of HD movies and TV Series linked here – just too much to begin to list… This addon is NOT supported by Kodi TV, do not ask for help on their forums, you can use the Ares Forums or head over to TV Addons. Supported Accounts Trakt IMDB Movieplanet.is OroroTV Real Debrid Premiumize AllDebrid RPnet So this should cover a lot of areas with viewed episodes, favourites and so on. I’ll just review a few key settings before installing – those with previous Genesis experience will be keen to have easy download options amongst others, theres a Channels option – Sky movies all listed here and a bunch of options to twiddle...

Ares Wizard URL Update 18/04/2016

It has become clear that the 3m+ downloads a month has become an issue on the current Ares Wizard zip host box, very often triggering the IP banning protection, although temporary, it would seem that some are being hit with 12 hr bans as the server thinks its being attacked. A royal pain if you are simply trying to grab the zip file. New Server, Bigger Pipe The Ares team has therefore invested in a new host, with a bigger 1 gbps pipe (previous was 50mbps), this “should” eliminate this problem for the downloads. Famous last words? The new url is http://www.areswizard.co.uk (note – there is no need to add zip to the end of this – its a direct link) Full information on the Ares Forum The Ares Wizard Overview Just to try and clarify how this utility works, as so many ask if its down when in fact its not – or confusing builds failing to download or install correctly as a problem with the wizard. The Ares Wizard is hosted across three servers , one main a...

NJM Soccer

NJM Soccer, recently had to swap server with some help from the Ares team, hes back online! Take note, it takes a lot of time to rebuild all the links, so not everything is there as it was, but hes working hard to get it all back. Keep in touch with NJM via twitter – say thanks now and again, it goes a long way @njmsoccer NB: Prior to installation its advised to completely uninstall the old version, clear packages and restart Kodi – just want to ensure that Kodi doesn’t drag back any out of date info. Installing NJM Soccer NJM can be found in his original repo or in this guide we’ll use the Ares Projects repo, so lets get started; Start Kodi Highlight System and Select File Manager Double Click Add Source Enter this EXACTLY http://repo.ares-project.com/magic/ Click Done Change Name of Source to Ares Project Click Done Back to Kodi Home Screen Click System Click Add ons Click Install from Zip FIle Click Ares Project Source (or whatever you called it) Click rep...
