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


tmdb

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

 



 

Adding Codes in Elysium

  3.  Enable Alluc Sources (click anywhere in that area)

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

  5.  Enter Password you used when you joined Alluc.ee.

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

  7.  Enter the TMDB API Code (key) you generated.

  8. 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.

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.

How to Disable/Enable Debug Logging in Krypton

Debug Logging in Kodi Krypton What is the debug log? A debug log can record database operations, system processes, and errors that occur when executing a transaction or running unit tests. Debug logs can contain information about: Database changes. HTTP callouts. Apex errors.  “Sometimes you might be asked to enable additional  debug logging “components”, which is an option in this same Settings/System/ Debugging  area. If you were not asked to enable anything extra, then don’t worry about those additional settings. Restart  Kodi : so that the  log  file records important startup information.” (excerpt from kodi wiki) Kodi-Wiki Log file . Disabling Debug Logging Occasionally a new user will start Kodi for the first time after purchasing a “loaded” Android Box and encounter some very odd looking numbers at the top of their screen ! “Is my Kodi Broken?”. No this is not a scene fro...

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...

Timber Wolf: Movie Kodi Add-on

Timber Wolf is another movie add-on brought to use by the developer “Dee” and is found in the Juggernaut Repo.  This add-on is mostly focused on Movies but does have a tv section and a kids section as well.  This add-on is definitely heavily focused on the movies though yet if you click on Tv it will bring you to a ton of sub-categories to choose from.  I am not sure if Dee plans on cleaning up the movies and bringing them under the umbrella of Movies like he did for Tv but time will tell.  Either way there is a ton of content available to the viewers. Timber Wolf.: Current version of this addon is 1.4 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 ...
