Kodi Advanced Settings Pt 2

 


 


This is the second part of The Advanced Settings XML article, in this follow up post I want to cover a few extra items.


  • Skip Loop Filter

  • Package Folder SIze

  • Remote Delay

  • Remote Repeat

Specifcally the first is for Amazons Firestick and reduces the overhead on the GPU by removing some “unseen” frames from the video stream.


Skip Loop Filter


  • Click Programs

  • Click Easy Advanced Settings

  • Click Edit Settings

  • Click Audio/video playback settings

easy advanced settings, skiploop filter


Access blocked websites


  • Click Skiploopfilter

  • Click 8

easy advanced settigns, skiploopfilter, firestick


  • You can back up to the twice and hit Write XML file

Package Folder Size


You’ll hear this a lot “purge packages”; so lets explain, packages are the zips Kodi downloads to install your add-ons. Kodi keeps them in case you want to roll back from an upgrade. However, they mostly just use up storage space. They have no connection to buffering, nor speed, nor performance, another often touted myth!


We can remove the need to do this monthly clean up by simply setting a fixed size for the folder and Kodi will keep it in check.


its worth noting that Kodi defaults to 200mb folder size, so you can make it smaller if your struggling for space on older kit, I’ve opted to increase things slightly to give us options to roll back in the event of a “bad” update, or one that annoys you (like the removal of download options in Genesis!)


  • Click Programs

  • Click Easy Advanced Settings

  • Click Edit Settings

  • Click Filesystem Settings – Enter 400 (this is MB btw)

  • Click Done

package folder size


  • You can back up to the twice and hit Write XML file

Remote Delay & Remote Repeat


These two may need some playing with; you will have experienced that annoying key bounce – press once get 2 or 3 characters, or you barely touch the button and get 10 characters – grrr! These options allow you to tinker and smooth out those glitches.


  • Click Programs

  • Click Easy Advanced Settings

  • Click Edit Settings

  • Click remote control settings

kodi advanced settings


  • Click remotedelay – enter 50

  • Click done

  • Click remoterepeat – enter 800

  • Click done

easy advanced settings, write xml


  • You can back up to the twice and hit Write XML file

That’s it for this section, I hope that’s helped demystify a few things and improved your Kodi experience.
