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.
