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.

Ares Wizard Install Guide (July 14th)

A lot of testing has been going on behind the scenes to bring you a new, improved  Ares Wizard. New, bigger, faster servers, rewritten code, new build hosts, new zip hosts, its been  complete rebuild for the ground up. Its important to note that the Ares Wizard can run without its servers (they may go down in the future), but it then loses some of its functions, such as Add on & repository installs, and only 200 builds to choose from; it does retain all its maintenance and tweaking functions in this mode, so still very useful.  ——————————————————— This add on is “unofficial” and therefore not supported by Kodi TV or XBMC foundation, please do not ask on their forums for help, goto ares-project.uk for further support. ——————————————————...

FireTV/Stick Easy Kodi Installs

You will no doubt be aware that since the  5.0.5.1_user_537175520 update, Firestarter was disabled (I hope to have a patched version shortly) and Amazon now show Kodi in the recent options (though strangely this worked on my FireTV box but NOT the Firestick – updates to follow. Its also not gone unnoticed that for some “strange” reason you cant click the download options if you browse to the Kodi downloads page – I mean really? There is no doubt the Amazon are engaged in “active disruption” to users trying to load Kodi. This post will show you how to get around this and save links for later use should you need it. What you will need We still do this with ES File Explorer (ESFE), just using a different method, if you already have ESFE installed skip to the “Installing Kodi” section. I stongly recommend you get the FireTV app on your phone to make entering the info easier, The mouse function will also make it easier to navigate in ESFE...

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...
