Chappa'ai: A Metalliq Alternative for Kodi

Chappa’ai by Mr. Blamo is a fork of the very popular add-on Metalliq which would allow you to search across several add-ons at the same time and allow you to choose which add-on to stream from.  The original add-on was extremely popular and could be seen featured in all the popular builds across the community.  I can tell you Blamo never seems to disappoint so I am excited to spend some time playing with this add-on to see how it stacks up against the original.  If Blamo put the same effort into this as he has with Death Streams, Placenta, and Neptune Rising I can tell you we have a winner on our hands.

Chappa’ai:  Current Version of this add-on is G.0.2

This add on is “unofficial” and therefore not supported by Kodi Tv or XMBC foundations, please do not ask on their forums for help, go to ares-project.uk for further support.


You can unblock many “dns censored” sources with a smartdns solution 


smart dns, unblock kodi sources, private dns, uncensored dns, unblockr


If you use p2p add ons, torrents, or in countries that prohibit streaming use a vpn from a reputable provider like Private Internet Access.

So what do we know about Chappa’ai?  We know Blamo is in the driver’s seat so we are in good hands.  We know the add-on is similar to Q’s Metalliq add-on that was vastly popular in the community.  Also we are aware this add-on may need a few tweaks and for this we will wait for my colleague T-Man.  He is already working behind the scenes to put together a step by step guide on how to optimize this add-on.  As always thanks for joining us and we are happy to bring you more and more content.  Please don’t forget to visit our main page http://best-kodi-guides.eu/ to stay up-to-date with all of our great content.

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 Click Skiploopfilter Click 8 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 fo...

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. Installing Project Cypher Click File Manager Double Click Add source Type this EXACTLY http://repo.run/cypherrepo/ Name the source, Project Cypher Return to the Kodi Home Screen Click System Click Add ons Click install from zip file Click Project Cypher Source Click Project Cypher zip file Wait for “add on enabled” notification Project Cypher Content The long list of live sports lin...

How to Adjust Video Screen in Kodi Jarvis/Krypton

Adjusting Video Screen in Kodi Have you ever opened your Kodi and found that the screen is “Skewed” or looks like it’s zoomed in and the edges are missing ? Well here’s a fix that everyone will be able to apply to Kodi 16.1, Krypton 17 and all Forks. Understanding where and how to adjust the video screen is one of the easiest fix that anyone can do. But before we begin, it’s always a good idea to check your Android device settings. You may have to adjust your settings there as well. Go to Main settings in your Device. (Android Box) Select display settings or Screen resolution. (varies depending on the Android version) Disable auto-detect HDMI. Now set it manually under HDMI output mode settings to 1080p, 50hz or you can set to what suits best according to the capacity of your TV manually by selecting it from the options on it. How to Adjust/Calibrate First of all, for the purpose of this article, all work was done on a PC for the screen captures. In addition, Kodi...

What is Failure Level in Death Streams Scraper List.

What is FL or Failure Level What FL specifically stands for is “Failure Level”. When a scraper’s FL value exceeds the FL threshold in settings, the scraper will be automatically disabled.  But only if “Automatically Disable Ineffective Scrapers” is set to “On” or trigger a disable prompt if it is set to “Prompt”. Death Streams, a Fork of  S.A.L.T.S. (Stream All The Sources) has thankfully decided to continue the use of this amazing Video Add-on. Originally developed by tk.norris it soon became a very unique Add-on to use. Primarily on how the end user was able to configure the Settings to their personal use. Due to the amount of time required to Maintain and Update an Add-on the Dev (tk.norris) decided to cease looking after Salts and move on to other Life Adventures. Unfortunately the new Dev also found this a daunting undertaking consequently forcing him to step away from the add-on. Mr. Blamo, in order to prevent failu...
