Gaia: Add-on for Kodi-Part One

Gaia Streaming Add-on

Gaia is a Kodi addon for streaming movies, shows, documentaries, and short films from a variety of sources, such as torrents, usenet, hosters, and video streaming services. This Add-on is optimized for premium services such as Premiumize, OffCloud, RealDebrid, and EasyNews.

Due to the length of configuring this add-on, this article will be in two(2) parts. We will show you how to install Gaia Add-on in part 1. Part 2 will offer you two configuration options, Manual or using the built-in Wizard. So lets begin.

What do I need to Install Gaia ?

Besides the Repo, it is highly recommended to have a VPN installed if you plan on using this add-on due to its streaming of Torrent Files. A Real Debrid and Premiumize.me Accounts will greatly improve the results. Premiumize.me along with Real Debrid are a Paid Service. ResolveURL and URL Resolver should be up to date and enabled prior to installing Gaia as I found out when first trying to install this add-on (many times)

For more information about installing Premiumize.me, click here, and for Real Debrid, click here.

Installing Gaia Add-on

There are two methods to install the Gaia repo. Installing the repo via File Manager or by downloading the Zip File. For those who are unsure on either method, please click this link for instructions on how to use either one. If using the File Manager method, type this exactly as the source: https://repo.gaiakodi.com. If installing via the Zip File, use this link to download the file, don’t forget to save it where you can find it later.

Once you see the Confirmation notification of the repo successfully installed:

Go to Add-ons.

Select the Open Box icon at the top left corner.

Select Install from repository.

Click on Gaia Repository 1.

Locate Gaia and click to continue.

gaia

Select Install to continue.

Confirming Installation

As a result, there will be a number of notifications that will appear in the top right corner. These will show the dependencies needed to enable the add-on to operate. For this article we are concentrating only on Gaia, Elementum and Quasar are two options that can be installed later on if you wish during the configuration portion. However, during my experimenting with this installation I did not bother with either one. So I have no opinion on whether these are of any benefit to install.

Once installed, click on Gaia to open. At this point there will be Three(3) bit’s of legal mumbo jumbo that you will have to select Continue to proceed.

Select Continue.

Deleting Old non-working URL's from File Manager

Deleting URL’s from File Manager We have all used the File Manager in Kodi to install different URL’s for various links to Repositories or Add-ons. Links become redundant for a number or reasons; however, the most common reason is abandonment by the developer. A perfect example is the TVA Fusion link, it became invalid and the link will no longer connect. Why remove the url links ? Keeping these URL links installed in File Manager is harmless, but keeping the file manager uncluttered is never a bad habit. Some of you may have typed the wrong url address by mistake. Instead of removing it right away, you just re-type the correct url address. I know how easy that is having done that myself on occasion. As a result, you have many duplicate sources in your File Manager section. The removal method is exactly the same for Jarvis & Krypton. Yet, I have combined photo examples for both just so you can follow along. While I was look...
