Your Best Kodi Build: What should I download?

Your Best Build


You may be just starting out on your kodi journey, or maybe grabbed a new device, could be an update but everyone has the same question. You are dying to ask the question and the temptation is killing you.  What’s your best build? What should I download? Finding yourself wanting to fit in and have the “best build” is a problem that faces too many.  Anyone who has spent any time in the community knows this is the most asked question.


Once this question has been asked it is like a can of worms being opened. Then will follow random comments naming numerous builds all claiming they have the best one. These will be a mixture of what the person commenting uses and builders trying to promote themselves. After all these random people telling you what you should like, you will find yourself no better than  you were to start.  In some cases you could be more confused.

I am too familiar with how it feels to be a newcomer to the Kodi World. Free streaming and tech can seem so overwhelming when  you are first starting out. Now you have to find someone or a group to trust to clue you in on the best place to learn. Everyone claiming they have all the answers but then become too busy when you need them most. Let’s face it your goal is to figure out how to setup, run, and maintain your home streaming media center. Of course you want it to be the best; however, you also want it tailored to suit your needs and personal preferences.


Personal Experience


Now I know from my own personal experience in Facebook Kodi/Streaming Community how hard it is to begin. It is like you show up a decade too late to the party and everyone already knows each other and everyone has all the answers.  No one says they are the right answers but everyone seems to have them. On top of not exactly knowing what is going on it is going to seem like everyone is speaking a foreign language.

First off, let me assure you there isn’t a person alive who was born knowing all this information. Therefore, despite what some may lead you to believe, each and every one of us started out as confused as you. We all needed some basic guidance to help find a way to decipher all the information being thrown at us. In addition, we all have different learning styles so finding someone to accommodate this can be even more difficult. For most people, their entertainment center is their quiet place, their safe place, and the place they go to relax.


What is your best build?




What’s the best build? This can be answered quite simply with just three words: There isn’t one. You might be asking why we cannot quantify which is the best build out there and there is a rational reason. There isn’t a best build because no two people actually want or expect the exact same thing from any build. This question is truly as arbitrary as “what is the best food”. Just like in my example we all have our own tastes whether they are eating or viewing tastes. Not only are our tastes different but our needs are also.

Some people may be looking for a build that is centred around Movies/TV Series and want no sports; others may be looking for a build only focused on sports. It even goes beyond this because some might have color blindness or not like the background style a builder chose. As you can see the question of best build just seems as silly as can be and there truly will never be an answer.

Choosing a build comes down to one thing alone: personal preference. There will be one build you will prefer above all others for whatever reason. So the best way to find your build is to get stuck in and try some for yourself. We each have our own technical setup, different devices, Operating systems, and technical knowledge. With all this being said; it only stands to reason you are required to test builds for yourself.



A Step in The Right Direction


All that being said, I know you are probably sitting there now saying to yourself. “Well that helpful….Not!! So if we change the question slightly from ‘What is the Best Build’ To What build will bring me the Best’ there is only one above all others that stands out. As mentioned find a build is not hard there is a plentiful supply at any one time. What you anyone new or not as confident with all this actually needs is to find A well maintained, well Supported build that is kept updated with the latest and greatest Kodi and free streaming has to offer.

A Build with A Real Community


In all my time within the Kodi Community I can honestly say that I have never Seen or heard of a build that is updated so often. These builds are maintained and developed by a team who take real pride in their work. They want the best and they want to give you the best. They have built a support group that very quickly became so much more. On entering this group after being in most of the other ‘Support Groups’ you feel like you stepped in a different world. Not a single question goes unanswered day or night. More importantly than that the answers are never the dreaded Smart A$$ or otherwise  derogatory, Non-Helpful answers you come to expect in Kodi Facebook Groups. You will NEVER hear the classicly annoying ‘Google it’ reply to any question. The team actually care about their Members and effortlessly go that extra mile to accommodate any requests, requirements or issues. It’s so refreshing to enter a group where everybody is just happily getting along and where the team and Members alike all take such pride in making sure anyone that needs help. Gets help.

What is This Amazing Community With the Fabulous Build?


Now you want to know what the name is of this Community with the build you can trust to keep you up to date with the more reinvent and useful Addons available at any time. Drum roll Please. (I’m teasing) The of these builds are the Midian Builds. There are 4 builds to choose from running on Kodi 17.8, Kodi 17.3 and Kodi 16.1 respectively. Named  Kryptic, Fantasy Life, Simply Krypton, and Kids Only. Midian builds are brought to you by the developers of the ever popular Wolfpack addon amongst others and the hugely popular BMC (Badazz Media Centre). Midian Builds can be downloaded from their Repo here or here

Click here .  If you are interested in acquiring an account, please use this link for Real Debrid . It’s recommended to establish an account prior to continuing. Where to start ? There are many Blogs and articles on the Internet about how to enable RD, but for a change this one will be about how to Enable RD in Krypton 18, Leia.

Updating Your Add-ons and Repositories in Kodi

Updating Add-ons / Repositories Updating your list of Add-ons and Repositories is the best way to ensure Kodi is functioning properly. Rather than checking, many newcomers think it’s better to just Uninstall the Add-on/Repo and reinstall it again. Totally unnecessary for many reasons. Consider this, if your vehicle runs out of fuel, would you replace it with another of the same make and model ? Of course not, you would find a way to fill it with fuel and carry on. Therefore, updating the Add-ons/Repos is like refueling your vehicle. This is another topic in our continuing effort to help the newcomers/beginners to the world of Kodi. You can view many more Blogs on a wide assortment of helpful topics here at Ares-Project Blog . Updating Repositories Rather than send an update for a single add-on that may be in a repo, the Dev will send one for the entire repo. It faster, more convenient and above all it saves time. Yet how do you know if your repo is up to date? Here are two exampl...

Kodi Dlna Client and Server Setup for Krypton

What is Dlna ? WHAT IS DLNA? The term DLNA stands for “Digital Living Network Alliance”. It is the industry standard for sharing network data combined with “Universal Plug and Play Audio Visual(UPnP). This option can be used to share your media libraries from one device to another. If you have a PC or Kodi Box for your Tv, you can share its media contents.  Other Smart TVs, Game Consoles, Phones, etc. to name a few. It is recommended that you backup Kodi before continuing in case you wish to restore your Kodi settings at a later date. A Kodi UPnP server/media can stream its content to other devices on the same network by using UPnP and DLNA protocols. HOW TO ENABLE DLNA ON KODI? For this article, I used a clean version of Krypton 17.6. If you are using a Build, this is typically found by selecting System, then System again. Lets begin: After opening Kodi, select the Cog Icon found in the top left corner. Then Select Service Settings top row far right in...
