Chappa`ai, the New Fork of MetalliQ

Chappa`ai a Fork of MetalliQ


The introduction of Chappa`ai has been discussed by one of our favorite Bloggers Gizmo. Due to his Blog ( click here for the link) providing the information on where and how to install this Add-on, we’ll move on to show you how to use it correctly. If you have this installed already, you may skip this section and proceed to Configuring in a Build.

Enabling Chappa`ai


 

Since you have installed Chappa`ai as per the Installation Blog by Gizmo, we’ll deal with how to install and enable the add-on itself.

 

chappa`ai

 

Once you have installed the Blamo Repo,
  • Open.

  • Select Video Add-ons.

  • After opening, scroll down to Chappa`ai and click.


 

chappa`ai

In the new Window, select Install.

 

chappa`ai

Once the Install confirmation appears in the top right corner, select the Add-on again to continue.

 

chappa`ai

Select Configure to continue.

 



 

chappa`ai

Under the heading General and scroll down to TotalSetup if this is the first time setting up Chappa`ai.

 

Configuring Chappa`ai in a Build


Some builds may have the Add-on pre-configured to a default Movie/TV Show Add-on. Maybe you would prefer to use another Add-on for both options or just change one. We will show you how to do this for Movies and or TV Shows. For the purpose of this article, I have selected the Durex Build at random.

First of all, lets locate the Chappa`ai Add-on in My Add-ons and open it. Select Configure.

 

chappa`ai
  • Highlight General.

  • Scroll down to Rerun TotalSetup and click.


 

chappa`ai

You’ll be bounced back to the Add-on main page where there will be a series of confirmations indicating the Movie, TV Shows Players and Library etc. have been reset.

 

chappa`ai

There will be a prompt asking you to “remove your existing players first ?” Click on Yes. Select Configure again please to continue.

 

chappa`ai

Back again to General and at the top select Enable all players.

 

chappa`ai

Once again you’ve been bounced, wait for the Confirmation of Players Enabled and select Configure. Again.

 



 

Selecting Preferred Player


 

chappa`ai

As indicated by the Red Arrow above, I happened to have Placenta as my preferred Movie Player. In other words, when I wish to view a movie, Placenta will be the Add-on used to search in. More about this a bit further on. If you wish to change to a different Player, select Preferred movie player.

 

chappa`ai

In addition to seeing Placenta, you will notice there are other Movie Add-ons included in this list. This list will vary from Build to Build, consequently those who do not have a build installed will only see the Add-ons you have installed. The more you have installed, the more you will see here. Find the Movie Add-on of your choice and select to enable it.

To enable the TV Show Player, simply select the heading TV Show and repeat from the selection offered.

 

Playing a Movie


 

chappa`ai

To play a Movie,
  • Open the Chappa`ai add-on, Select Movies.


 

chappa`ai

I selected Popular from the TMDb list. Notice there is a list for Trakt, so if you have a Trakt TV account you can take advantage of that list as well. That can be added under the Custom heading found in Configure.

 

chappa`ai

The Shape of Water was randomly selected, notice the amount of sources that were found in both paid (Real Debrid) and free.

 

 

 

chappa`ai

Finally, the end result especially relevant is the Resolution and Audio found. This was all done on Krypton 17.6 and the device was a PC w/ W10.

 

In Conclusion


Using the Chappa`ai fork is no different than using MetalliQ add-on. A few tweaks here and there will make it beneficial to Kodi users when streaming Movies or TV Shows. Please don’t forget to stop by our main page http://best-kodi-guides.eu/ and stay up to date with more of our great content.

How to Disable/Enable Debug Logging in Krypton

Debug Logging in Kodi Krypton What is the debug log? A debug log can record database operations, system processes, and errors that occur when executing a transaction or running unit tests. Debug logs can contain information about: Database changes. HTTP callouts. Apex errors.  “Sometimes you might be asked to enable additional  debug logging “components”, which is an option in this same Settings/System/ Debugging  area. If you were not asked to enable anything extra, then don’t worry about those additional settings. Restart  Kodi : so that the  log  file records important startup information.” (excerpt from kodi wiki) Kodi-Wiki Log file .

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.

Click Here: Kodi Add-on by SkyDarks

Click Here is one of the newest Fork and it has a very clever name.  Invoking you to just “click here” to get all the movies and tv shows you could ever want.  This add-on doesn’t have any of the “extras” that some of the other forks have; however, it does work nicely.  Click Here has all the sames features you enjoyed in Covenant including the ability to add Trakt and Debrid accounts.  I like that the developer Swiper kept it close to the original and just changed up some artwork. Click Here: Current version of this addon is 1.0 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 .

At The Flix by Maverick Movie Kodi Add-on

At The Flix may be one of my favorite add-ons now a days for movies and it is just done well.  Maverick hit a home run with this add-on and I cannot praise him enough for the work he put together.  At The Flix is that movie add-on you dream of with sections dedicated to 4K UHD (Ultra High Definition), Real Debrid, New Releases, Latest Tv Shows, Kids Movies, and much more.  Oh did I mention he also included a music section and the ability to pair with sources prior to starting?

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...
