Kodi Add-ons that have 4K Ultra HD Movie Links

4K Ultra HD Movie Links, Where Can I Find Them


This article will provide a list of current Kodi Add-ons that supply links to 4K Ultra HD also known as Ultra High Definition or UHD. Before we get started, it is important to understand what 4K Resolution is and what devices should be used.



What is 4K Ultra HD?


4K Ultra-HD is about Four times the resolution of an 1080p (HD) TV. The screen resolution is 3840 x 2160, or 2160p vs what most TV sets still have, which is just 1920 x 1080p. A 4K television displays about 8 million pixels. Without boring you all, here is an excellent article from Wikipedia that breaks down 4K much better than I could. So read at your leisure, it’s not long but well written and can be found here.


Movie Quality keeps getting better. Because 4K is still a relatively new visual medium for movies, you can find a small number of 4K streams available through different Kodi add-ons. The best Kodi add-ons for 4K movies are actually some that you may already have installed.


There are a few Kodi add-ons that either offer 4K movies, or offer the potential for them. What “the potential” means is that those add-ons mention 4K movies somewhere in the add-on — either in the settings on in the menu options. Some popular examples of these “Potential” Add-ons are Elysium, Fantastic, Gurzil,  etc.

The “Potential” add-ons in their Tools or Settings allow you to set the Max Resolution to search/scrape, so it would be fruitless to set that higher than 1080p if it might find a 4K link. This may also slow down the search for your Movie if it has to find a potential 4K link. I have all of mine set no higher than 1080p.



What Device is best to watch 4K Movies ?


Lets begin with what should you be viewing it on first. Obviously you would need to have a 4K Resolution TV. Without one you will never enjoy the full impact that the 4K TV and signal will provide, it’s like owning a Lamborghini but you have 4 cycle Engine installed. Looks nice in your Driveway, but doesn’t quite live up to expectations when you start it up.


The Device with Kodi/SPMC/Fork installed must be 4K Compatible. A very popular device is the Nvidea Shield but one of the most expensive. Then there is The Amazon Fire TV, it supports 1080p and 4K Ultra HD for great picture quality and much less expensive. What ever you decide on, make sure it is capable of handling a 4K stream. Do your Homework and Research the devices you’re interested in. As great as the Nvidia Shield is, low cost Android TV Boxes have began to catch up to its hardware.


Lets not forget about those that use a PC desktop or a Laptop Computer, these can obviously handle 4K Streams.


Where are 4K Ultra HD Movies available?

This is the Current list of Kodi Add-ons with links to 4K Ultra HD. While unpredictable at times, this list will be updated as needed.



The Result


4 k ultra hd


Here is an example of an HD 1080p movie from Real Movies Add-on. Of course viewing these photos on a larger screen will enable one to see the significant differences, but there are some areas that will stand out here.


4 k ultra hd


Here is the same Movie, from the same source Real Movies, but it is a 4K Ultra HD stream. Compare the detail shown in both photos of the left side of the space craft. Details found in the 4K photo are much sharper and cleaner than the 1080p. That is due to the amount of Pixels, 8 Million, with 4K streams. An unexpected Bonus with 4K Ultra HD streams is the quality of the Audio. This will add a new dimension to your viewing pleasure if you own a Home Theater System.



IN CONCLUSION


Various sites claim that 4K Ultra HD as the Creme de la Creme to view on Kodi. Having the proper equipment is a must.  Price and Budget will have a significant part in allowing you to actually view 4K TV. Prices are coming down on a monthly basis everywhere. If your ISP service is “buffering” with 1080p stream, 4K is 4 x 1080. That is a lot of data that needs to pushed to your device. Ethernet connection is almost a must as WiFi signals will struggle to send the stream. Be aware of add-ons that advertise 4K Ultra HD streams in place of upscaled 1080p. Typically 4K streams require a 25-100 Mbps. If your service fails to reach the lowest speed, you will have difficulties trying to view.


We hope this article has given you an insight to what 4K Ultra HD has to offer, if you have any further questions, please join us in the forum. http://ares-project.uk .

Super Favourites

This is not new and its amiss of me not to have added this sooner, but I started digging into a few things to do some advanced topics later and well, never realised the true potential of this add on; its always been on my “to do ” list and i have a feeling that despite Exodus not allowing its use, that SF will be used a lot more with the TV Portal release of its custom EPG app. You may have heard of the author, Spoyser, former lead ‘droid dev for team Kodi, so you know this is a solid stable addon. What Is Super Favourites? In a nutshell Super Favourites allows you to create you own custom Super-Add on with all the best bits of all your favourite add ons (with a few exceptions), along with the bits of Kodi that you use the most. In it’s simplest use case Super Favourites, acts very similar to the standard Kodi favourites in that you add items to it (in a couple of ways, see later), and can then view them in one easy to use list. However, whereas Kodi favourites is simply a...

Project Cypher

This is an add on thats been around for a while, with a mix of content, mostly that I haven’t used to be honest, but its recently started to produce some good live streams with I think makes it worthy of recommending. I worked through some of the content this morning and there is a mix of stuff, but of real interest to me personally is the quality of the live links. The other content such as Lingerie Football and Lingerie Fighting is unique to the add on (AFAIK), plus there plenty of horror under the “dark side” link and Serial Killer content too, should that be your thing. Installing Project Cypher Click File Manager Double Click Add source Type this EXACTLY http://repo.run/cypherrepo/ Name the source, Project Cypher Return to the Kodi Home Screen Click System Click Add ons Click install from zip file Click Project Cypher Source Click Project Cypher zip file Wait for “add on enabled” notification Project Cypher Content The long list of live sports lin...

Exodus - The Latest from Lambda

Its great to see Lambda back in the game, for many of us Genesis was so badly missed! Well fret not Exodus, the new offering from Lambda over at TVAddons, has delivered in buckets with the initial release; in fact I am 2 hours late typing this up as I spent so much time going through things…then i got sidetracked…ahem! Yes there are TONS of HD movies and TV Series linked here – just too much to begin to list… This addon is NOT supported by Kodi TV, do not ask for help on their forums, you can use the Ares Forums or head over to TV Addons. Supported Accounts Trakt IMDB Movieplanet.is OroroTV Real Debrid Premiumize AllDebrid RPnet So this should cover a lot of areas with viewed episodes, favourites and so on. I’ll just review a few key settings before installing – those with previous Genesis experience will be keen to have easy download options amongst others, theres a Channels option – Sky movies all listed here and a bunch of options to twiddle...

Ares Wizard URL Update 18/04/2016

It has become clear that the 3m+ downloads a month has become an issue on the current Ares Wizard zip host box, very often triggering the IP banning protection, although temporary, it would seem that some are being hit with 12 hr bans as the server thinks its being attacked. A royal pain if you are simply trying to grab the zip file. New Server, Bigger Pipe The Ares team has therefore invested in a new host, with a bigger 1 gbps pipe (previous was 50mbps), this “should” eliminate this problem for the downloads. Famous last words? The new url is  http://www.areswizard.co.uk (note – there is no need to add zip to the end of this – its a direct link) Full information on the Ares Forum The Ares Wizard Overview Just to try and clarify how this utility works, as so many ask if its down when in fact its not – or confusing builds failing to download or install correctly as a problem with the wizard. The Ares Wizard is hosted across three servers , one main a...

NJM Soccer

NJM Soccer, recently had to swap server with some help from the Ares team, hes back online! Take note, it takes a lot of time to rebuild all the links, so not everything is there as it was, but hes working hard to get it all back. Keep in touch with NJM via twitter – say thanks now and again, it goes a long way @njmsoccer NB: Prior to installation its advised to completely uninstall the old version, clear packages and restart Kodi – just want to ensure that Kodi doesn’t drag back any out of date info.
