How to enable Inputstream Adaptive in Kodi Krypton

What is Inputstream Adaptive

The recent update release from Kodi on the Krypton 17.3 has failed to enable a feature called InputStream Adaptive. So what you say ! What does it do ? How do I use it ? Well here’s a quick explanation of what InputStream Adaptive does :

This package is required to allow add-ons like the Youtube to work properly in Krypton 17 . Therefore allowing the add-on to support 1080p resolutions and up and solve some issues with mpeg-dash videos.
The following steps can be used in Krypton 17.3 as well as any Krypton Forks Nodi, MyGica Media and SPMC v17.4-alpha 10.

inputstream

Because the add-on is pre-installed in Kodi Krypton, it a simple matter of knowing where to locate it, and then enable. After opening Kodi, hover the cursor over the Add-ons tab in the vertical menu bar to your left . Red Arrow 1. Then select the My add-ons icon at the top of the screen. Red arrow 2.

Enabling Inputstream Adaptive

Scroll down to the bottom of the list of Add-ons and select VideoPlayer InputStream.

Select InputStream Adaptive option.

Click on the Enable button at the bottom of the window. Return to the previous menu. Repeat to Access the RTMP Input option and select Enable.

Confirming

As a result of correctly enabling both the InputStream Adaptive and RTMP Input, will now indicate confirmation with a Check Mark in front of each selection.
That is it, all done. You can now return to the home page.

IN CONCLUSION

This is a rather unknown and unused option in Kodi Krypton. So those of you who enjoy using the YouTube Add-on will, as a result of using the option, find an improvement in the quality and resolution.

Updating Your Add-ons and Repositories in Kodi

Updating Add-ons / Repositories Updating your list of Add-ons and Repositories is the best way to ensure Kodi is functioning properly. Rather than checking, many newcomers think it’s better to just Uninstall the Add-on/Repo and reinstall it again. Totally unnecessary for many reasons. Consider this, if your vehicle runs out of fuel, would you replace it with another of the same make and model ? Of course not, you would find a way to fill it with fuel and carry on. Therefore, updating the Add-ons/Repos is like refueling your vehicle. This is another topic in our continuing effort to help the newcomers/beginners to the world of Kodi. You can view many more Blogs on a wide assortment of helpful topics here at Ares-Project Blog . Updating Repositories Rather than send an update for a single add-on that may be in a repo, the Dev will send one for the entire repo. It faster, more convenient and above all it saves time. Yet how do you know if your repo is up to date? Here are two exampl...

WiFi Settings & Tweaks for Kodi

I thought I’d cover the one of the most talked about issues in the world of streaming and thats WiFi and how to get the best out of it, practical measures and not some of the voodoo you read on some forums! What is WIFi? The term Wi-Fi refers specifically to the IEEE 802.11 set of standards for wireless networks. Several different standards are designated by a letter suffix on the 802.11, such as in 802.11g or 802.11n. In general all of the 802.11 standards operate on either a 2.4GHz or 5GHz radio frequency. 5GHz has much greater speed capability but a reduced range; generally speaking the lower a frequency the further it will travel, so don’t expect miracles if you switch to 5GHz. A key thing to note here is that if ANY device uses the older “b” standard then ALL devices *could* have their speed reduced to 11mbps on “g” networks, depending on your router. This really applies to older equipment or cheap equipment with old parts used in it *cough* t...
