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.

Finally, select Agree or Disagree. At this point, if you are unsure or uncomfortable in proceeding, Click Disagree to cancel the final steps of installation.

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 .

Pron.tv, The New Alternative to Alluc.ee ? Part 2.

Pron.tv What is an API Code and in addition how will Pron.tv enhance my search results in Kodi. First of all, lets explain what an API Code is : Basically, an API specifies how software components should interact. Additionally, APIs are used when programming graphical user interface (GUI) components. A good API makes it easier to develop a program by providing all the building blocks. A programmer then puts the blocks together. An application programming interface key ( API key ) is a code passed in by computer programs calling an application programming interface (API) to identify the calling program, its developer, or its user to the Web site. Pron.tv Add-on List As a result of following Part 1 , it was necessary to provide a List of Current Add-ons that have Pron.tv in their list of Scrapers. I was pleasantly surprised at the number of Add-ons with pron.tv while doing my research. I will give a brief descript...

TV Addons - Crypto Mining Hack - (Update: Coder responds!)

If you have been using Kodi third party addons for any length of time, you cannot have missed the controversy that always seems to surround TV Addons and the antics of its owner, Adam Lackman. In recent history there have been a number of high profile repo “hacks” and if you think back a little further, there was the DDOS hidden in the popular Exodus add-on. TV Addons Hack & Virus History Exodus DDOS “bot” So if you dont recall TV Addons hugely popualr Exodus add-on had some code added to it to DDOS attack another repo. This was in response to a clone or fork of the addon that TVA took exception against. This seems rather bizarre given the amount of forks that are flying around now! Here is a link to that article. Exodus Botnet We did remove a lot of the post – but heres some links showing the code and how it was added; Exodus DDOS code Target of DDOS TVA & Indigo Repo Hijacks So lets review the repo hijacks – hotly denied, but who else has a ve...

How to Install Every Repo

The key thing to adding content to Kodi is via repositories – a “repo” is the “central storage point” for an authors add ons. Add-ons provide you with content, so you will see someone reference say Genesis and Lambda – Lambda is the author and has his repository, and Genesis is the add on held in that repo for you to install. A repo can have multiple add ons. These add ons are grouped as Program, Video, etc. I hope that’s simple enough – that’s my fifth version, if you have a simpler way to explain, please comment below and I’ll add it in! Repository Addresses Every repo has a url, an address (or source) you need to add into Kodi’s File Manager in order to install the repo into your Kodi locally. I have created a list of the most popular (I hope!) although this isn’t meant to be every repo every created. I am providing a list here of the repo’s rather than write 150 articles for each individual. This will also...

How to Add Your Personal Music Files in Krypton

Music Files in Krypton Add-ons that have Music/Radio are growing at a rapid pace. Unfortunately, sometimes the selections available are not quite everyone’s “cup of tea”. I’m a firm believer that Music makes The World Go Around. But sometimes I just wish I could listen to what makes “My world go around”. We all have a large selection of Music Files these days, so why not make them available to play on your version of Kodi Krypton and Forks of Krypton. WHAT TOOLS DO I NEED A USB flash drive or a External Hard Drive. Access to your personal files (if on a PC or Laptop) Device that has a USB slot or SD Card Download Manager , ES File Explorer as an example. I happened to use my PC due to it being easier to create the Photos needed for this article. How you decide to move your files will be up to you, use what ever option you feel the most comfortable with. Adding them to Kodi Krypton will remain the same. Setting up and Installing Music in Krypt...
