Kodi Upgrade Notification VERB Raise (something) to a higher standard, in particular improve (equipment or machinery) by adding or replacing components. NOUN An act of upgrading something. 1.‘a room upgrade from a twin to a duplex suite’ 1.1   An improved or more modern version of something, especially a piece of computing equipment. You have just installed Kodi or a Fork of Kodi for the first time, why are you receiving these notifications about an upgrade? “I don’t want to upgrade yet” you say !  “I want to understand this version better first”. Because Kodi wants you to always upgrade to the best version available, you will see that annoying message appear shortly after starting. As a beginner to Kodi trying to understand how to use it and where to go can be challenging at best. Should I press this? what happens if I don’t? What is this notification on my screen? Well, here’s another installment of our continuing s...

Font Re-sizing in Krypton Font: A  font  is a set of printable or displayable text character s in a specific  style  and size. The type design for a set of fonts is the typeface and variations of this design form the typeface family. Builders create their Project based on a theme. It could be geared towards Sports, Movies, a Specific TV Show or Movie character. It could be Nature, Space or an Abstract theme, the limits are endless. But there is something else that is always taken into consideration when designing these builds. What size of text but most importantly the type of Font to use. You can have some of the most beautiful, spectacular background photos in a build. But it means nothing if the user can’t read the text used to maneuver their way inside it. Why Change the Font? Most users change the font size more often than the style due to a Visual Disability. Not everyone has 20/20 vision and it can be difficult to read a Build. Another rea...

Jarvis VOD is a new add-on brought to us by the developer Critter.  This add-on is full of different categories from new releases, to sports movies, chick flicks, anime,, and much more.  The add-on is simple to follow but you might need to nose around to find the exact content you are looking to watch.  There is a section for game shows which is something very unique now-a-days.  This is a section that some have requested and I think Critter did a nice job by pulling this into the add-on. Jarvis VOD: Current version of this addon is 2.2.8 This add on is “unofficial” and therefore not supported by Kodi Tv or XMBC foundations, please do not ask on their forums for help. You can unblock many “dns censored” sources with a smartdns solution  If you use p2p add ons, torrents, or in countries that prohibit streaming use a vpn from a reputable provider like Private Internet Access .

Updating Add-ons / Repositories Updating your list of Add-ons and Repositories is the best way to ensure Kodi is functioning properly. Rather than checking, many newcomers think it’s better to just Uninstall the Add-on/Repo and reinstall it again. Totally unnecessary for many reasons. Consider this, if your vehicle runs out of fuel, would you replace it with another of the same make and model ? Of course not, you would find a way to fill it with fuel and carry on. Therefore, updating the Add-ons/Repos is like refueling your vehicle. This is another topic in our continuing effort to help the newcomers/beginners to the world of Kodi. You can view many more Blogs on a wide assortment of helpful topics here at Ares-Project Blog . Updating Repositories Rather than send an update for a single add-on that may be in a repo, the Dev will send one for the entire repo. It faster, more convenient and above all it saves time. Yet how do you know if your repo is up to date? Here are two exampl...

ResolveURL ResolveURL is the new Fork of URL Resolver that has been (re)developed by a well known and trusted developer jsergio123. He is more well known as one of the top Kodi Python Code distributors on the internet in recent times. The ResolveURL Kodi add-on works in the background of Kodi , also called a dependency, to decode file hosts in order to play the root movie or TV video stream. I’m sure you have noticed the names Dizilab, Dizigold, Primewire, TVHD. These are Filehosts or Scrapers used in many Add-ons. The url resolver kodi add-on searches and retrieves a streaming file as it navigates thru these scrapers/hosts. Where is ResolveURL located Since this is relatively new, there are only a few Add-ons that are currently using it: Placenta Death Streams Death Streams RD Nemesis Vortex Maverick TV If you are installing or updating any of the Add-ons on their own or the repo they are located in, ResolveURl will be automatically installed for you. So there is n...

DigiBox is a Kodi Add-on brought to us through the Digital Repository which focuses on Movies & Tv Shows.  DigiBox also has a documentaries section and a section for Real Debrid.  Don’t worry it is not required for the add-on but as we always say Real Debrid does enhance the choices.  In addition to Real Debrid you do have the ability to add your Trakt information to track all your Tv Shows should you want to do so.  One thing I wanted to share is the Networks section in Tv Shows does work.  This is a section that stopped working in the forks of Covenant and Elysium some time ago.  I am happy to see it back and looking forward to see what other things are brought to this add-on. DigiBox: Current version of this addon is 2.2 This add on is “unofficial” and therefore not supported by Kodi Tv or XMBC foundations, please do not ask on their forums for help. You can unblock many “dns censored” sources with a smartdns solution...
