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.

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.

Changing the Movie Icon Size in Krypton/Jarvis

What is a Movie Icon ? Movie Icon is a general term used to describe the Fan-art of a Movie/TV Show in a Video Add-on. Such as Placenta, Elysium or Death Streams to name a few. Many also call it Thumbnails because it is a small version of a Poster of a Movie/TV Show. All Devs utilize these Icons to give those using their Add-ons a visual aid of what each Movie/TV Show appears as. So you sit down with the Family to watch a movie. But wouldn’t it be nice to just see what movies there are in a larger Icon like you seen in a Poster. Especially for the little ones who can’t read but certainly recognize a Favorite Character of theirs. To be honest even some the “Older Kids” eyesight could use a break from squinting I’m sure,present company included. Here are a few easy steps that will allow you to view a Icon or enable Thumbnail view. For this article a “clean” version of Krypton 17.3 was used with the Estuary Skin.

TV Addons - Crypto Mining Hack

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. 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 v...

PureSports: Watching Sports on Kodi

PureSports is one of the newest Kodi Add-ons on the scene and it is quite nice.  Looks like a mix of a ProSports type add-on tied with a live tv channels section; however, I need to say it is more than ProSports.  I have only taken a small look at the add-on at this point; however, I have been very impressed with it.  PureSports has a great functionality as it is broken down into easy to navigate sports sections.  Is it 3PM kick-off you are looking for?  Or maybe it is the next MMA/Boxing event, Big US Sporting event, or finally just watch some live tv; this is the add-on for you.  Oh, did I mention you also have cricket, darts, F1 Racing and much more?  So enough about pumping up this add-on and now let’s delve a little deeper into it. PureSports: Current Version of this add-on 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, go to ares-project....
