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.

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...

Kodi Advanced Settings Pt 2

This is the second part of The Advanced Settings XML article, in this follow up post I want to cover a few extra items. Skip Loop Filter Package Folder SIze Remote Delay Remote Repeat Specifcally the first is for Amazons Firestick and reduces the overhead on the GPU by removing some “unseen” frames from the video stream. Skip Loop Filter Click Programs Click Easy Advanced Settings Click Edit Settings Click Audio/video playback settings Click Skiploopfilter Click 8 You can back up to the twice and hit Write XML file Package Folder Size You’ll hear this a lot “purge packages”; so lets explain, packages are the zips Kodi downloads to install your add-ons. Kodi keeps them in case you want to roll back from an upgrade. However, they mostly just use up storage space. They have no connection to buffering, nor speed, nor performance, another often touted myth! We can remove the need to do this monthly clean up by simply setting a fixed size for the fo...

Ares Wizard - Retro Gaming

The Ares Wizard has had a few upgrades to bring more of what users demand, easy android installs and retro gaming being sought by many, so grab yourself a game controller and prepare to transform your android boxes in a few clicks, retro gaming is now on the Ares Wizard! Archive Logins Just before we delve into those updates, I also wanted to point out that Mr Dobson has figured out how to log into Archive via Kodi – this may make your eyes glaze over, so I’ll be brief; the high demand builds hosted on Archive recently hit a problem, where Archive forced logins to download – normally something of a bind from android boxes. Well if you create any account (even if you don’t actually use it) this login can be entered and this allows downloads from Archive – Ares is the ONLY Wizard to be able to do this. (take note Ares does NOT store this info, so you will have to key it in each time you are prompted to do so) Android Apps A few additional apps have been added...

Non Stop Kodi Add-on is the place to go for twenty-four hour tv-shows. Do you like to binge watch series and have a hard time finding a good add-on? Over the past few years the 24-7 add-ons have come and gone and many of the ones that remain have not been reliable…. Well thanks to Wolfey B we are able to now binge watch our favorite shows.

WiFi Settings & Tweaks

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...
