How to Enable MetalliQ Add-on in Kodi

What is MetalliQ ?


MetalliQ, by OpenELEQ, an amazing and useful Add-on which provides available streams from all your installed add-ons in your system. Providing you with Movies, TV Shows, and Music in the best possible quality. MetalliQ also integrates perfectly with your Trakt account, another tool that everyone must have in their Kodi. If you try to run Metalliq on a fresh Kodi installation, it won’t do anything. Metalliq depends on and works very well with many Video Add-ons for content.

How to Install MetalliQ


You can find the MetalliQ Add-on in the NaN (noobsandnerds) Repo.
  • Open the NaN repo from “Install from Repositories”.

  • Select Video Add-ons.

  • OpenELEQ Tools and Install.

  • After the install notification appears, return to Install from Repositories.

  • Select Q’s Repository.

  • Video add-ons.

  • Select MetalliQ, a list of Kodi versions will appear, select the same version you have installed.


 

 

Configuring MetalliQ


MetalliQ

Unlike other Add-ons, Metalliq requires a little bit of post-installation configuration.  After installation, you’ll need to open up its settings by opening the Context menu.
  • Right click your Mouse

  • Press C on the keyboard

  • Select the Button on the remote with 3 lines.

  • Click Configure.


 

MetalliQ

Select the General Tab and click on TotalSetup.

 

MetalliQ

A prompt will appear asking if you want to remove existing players, Select NO.

 

MetalliQ

You will be returned to the Settings page once again. You will immediately notice a series of Notifications cycling thru in the top right corner. Allow these to finish before proceeding. Should take no more than 20 seconds or so. Click on Configure again to proceed to the next step.

 

Enabling Preferred Players


In addition to enabling your preferred players in MetalliQ, you also have the option to select a different player for each player category. One for Movies, another for TV Shows and a third for Music etc. For this article, we will show how to enable all Add-ons for both Movies and TV Shows.

 

MetalliQMovies:  As a result of clicking Configure, you will return to the Settings page. Highlight Movies then click on Enable movie players as seen in the example above.

 

MetalliQ

Click YES when Prompted.

 



 

MetalliQTV Shows:  Repeat the same process for TV Shows as you did with Movies. Since adding Players for Music, or Live is done the same, I’ll not be showing those steps here.

 

MetalliQ


Changing Preferred Player


 

MetalliQ

If you prefer to enable a single Add-on as the default player, select Preferred movie player. Why would I do that ? For a few reasons, you could have a limited number of Add-ons installed in Kodi and have a favorite you like to use more than others. Or you have a Build installed and instead of enabling all Players, you have one that you like over the others.

It’s more personal choice than anything else. No matter why you decided, once selected, a list will be made available in a new window. Simply find your desired Add-on and click to enable.

 

TMDb Key Code


 

MetalliQ

Since you are in the Settings of MetalliQ and you have a TMDb API key code, this is the right time to enter it. Scroll down to Custom, move the cursor to TMDb API and Click. The Keyboard will appear allowing you to enter your code. Since this is one of the few add-ons that enable you to view what you have typed, this will ensure there are no mistakes.

 

Playing content with MetalliQ


 

 

MetalliQ

 

Viewing  Media content can be done by clicking Open. Where you will see the Options listed above. For this article, Movies was selected.

 

MetalliQ

The next screen will offer different categories to choose from as well as picking from TMDb or from Trakt. Popular (TMDb) was my random selection.

 

MetalliQ

Blade Runner 2049 was selected.

 

MetalliQ

If you have not selected a Preferred Player, this configuration is what you will see. I happened to have 12 add-ons and I selected Placenta.

 

 

MetalliQ

 

The photo above is an example of what occurs once you have decided what add-on. This process is no different than doing a search as you normally would when looking for a Movie/TV Show to stream. The difference is the ability to access TMDb and Trakt links much faster and with a better selection of quality both provide.

IN CONCLUSION


Metalliq’s interface is very simple. The main menu has several different options: movies, TV shows, music, TV channels, playlists and enter search string.  If you click any of the first four menus, it will reach out to the TV Movie Database and pull down a list of content.

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...

Xtreme Odyssey: Kodi Add-on

Xtreme Odyssey is another add-on to find a new home when Looking Glass left the scene and luckily for us Loose Cannon found a home with Team Illuminati.  Xtreme Odyssey has a Red Bull Xtreme Sports section.  This add-on is a mixed bag add-on that has Movie and Tv sections as well Live Events, Olympics, Documentaries and more.  The direct links make the add-on very easy to use and the amount of content makes this add-on a winner.  I am happy to see Loose Cannon bring this add-on back and I think you will agree.  The few items I checked were in 1080p quality and loaded seamlessly.  So now that we know you are going to like the add-on let’s go ahead and install it.
