Using TMDb and Alluc API Codes in Kodi Add-ons

Using TMDb / Alluc Codes Together

Before explaining how to link your TMDb api code with Alluc code, why does anyone need the code ?

When the Add-on Elysium became the “go to” add-on as an alternative to Covenant, the Devs added the api Code. Consequently TMDb began cancelling each new api code generated by the Developers as it was viewed as “abuse of the code”. As a result the Developers spent more time generating a new code instead of improving the add-on itself. The Solution was to allow each user to generate their own personal IMDb Api code and enter it themselves.

Generating your own TMDb Code

While other groups were providing a solution, Ares Project Forum had taken it a step further by providing a Blog that gave a more detailed method that others had missed. In addition to generating a TMDb code, you will also need a Alluc code. This can be found by following this link.

Add-ons Currently Utilizing both Codes

The above list will be updated as each new Add-on allows the use of either/both Codes.

Adding Codes in Elysium

Elysium requires a bit more work but it is really quite easy.

Open Elysium, select Tools.

Settings-Accounts.

Enable Alluc Sources (click anywhere in that area)

Enter the User Name you used when you joined Alluc.ee.

Enter Password you used when you joined Alluc.ee.

Enable Alluc Debrid Sources , Skip this step if you do not have a Real Debrid Account(click anywhere in that area)

Enter the TMDB API Code (key) you generated.

Select OK before exiting, failure to do so will not set the new changes. You will have to repeat all steps.

Adding Codes in Death Streams

If you haven’t noticed, S.A.L.T.S. is now a Fork and it’s called Death Streams. Follow this Link on how to optimize the settings.

Open the Add-on.

Select Settings.

Select Add-on settings.

Scroll to the right to Scrapers 1.

Enable, if not already done, alluc.com Enabled.

Enter both the Username and Password you used to join that site.

Select OK before exiting.

Adding Codes in Rebirth

Rebirth is a new Fork of Exodus, can be found in the Cyberlocker repository. Follow this link for more information.

Open the Add-on and select Tools.

Select Providers.

Select NanScraper Settings. If you have a Real Debrid Account, click to enable it. See A above.

Scroll down to Scrapers 1, See B above.

Click on Enabled.

Enter your Username and Password.

Click OK to set the changes when exiting.

IN CONCLUSION

In conclusion, more Add-ons will be using the API Code/Key in the near future, knowing how to accomplish this now will make it much easier for you when these do happen. Due to different scrapers used in each Add-ons, your results may vary. All testing and research was conducted on a PC with both Krypton 17.4 and Jarvis 16.1.

In addition, testing was also done on a Nvidea Shield using a SPMC 17.4 Fork, Krypton 17.5.1 and NODI Krypton fork. These produced positive results as well. Finally, this article is meant to be used as a guide. Your results will produce different results, ensuring your add-ons are up to date will help.

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...

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 . Click Here Installation on Kodi Jarvis (16) Click SYSTEM > F...

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. Jarvis 16.1 version was used with the Pulse Build and Xonfluen...

Deleting Old non-working URL's from File Manager

Deleting URL’s from File Manager We have all used the File Manager in Kodi to install different URL’s for various links to Repositories or Add-ons. Links become redundant for a number or reasons; however, the most common reason is abandonment by the developer. A perfect example is the TVA Fusion link, it became invalid and the link will no longer connect. Why remove the url links ? Keeping these URL links installed in File Manager is harmless, but keeping the file manager uncluttered is never a bad habit. Some of you may have typed the wrong url address by mistake. Instead of removing it right away, you just re-type the correct url address. I know how easy that is having done that myself on occasion. As a result, you have many duplicate sources in your File Manager section. The removal method is exactly the same for Jarvis & Krypton. Yet, I have combined photo examples for both just so you can follow along. While I was...
