Kodi for the Xbox One. Let us end the year 2017 with a blast including a nostalgic reference to the past. It has long been asked for by so many and now it finally happened. Kodi for Xbox One is available worldwide through Windows and Xbox Store and will only be released from Kodi v18 and onwards. Do note it's not finished yet and may contain missing features and bugs which will be mentioned later in this article. It was about 15 years ago that a group of like-minded developers released something that was called Xbox Media Player (full history can read be here). Back then the Xbox was one of the most affordable devices that was based on the x86 architecture with TV-out, had an optical drive and relatively easy “hackable”. From there on it developed into the Xbox Media Center which was the baseline of what would become XBMC. At some point other platforms were added besides the Xbox and the project became larger and larger. The hardware scene continued to evolve and became cheaper and the once famous Xbox became kind of obsolete as the other platforms were easier to install XBMC on. As of 27 May 2010, it was announced by the XBMC developers that they would cease development for the original Xbox. It was thought by the team that getting Kodi (XBMC) running on newer Xbox versions would be wishful thinking and we would never see that happen anymore. As time passed by developers and users were happy running XBMC on their Linux, Windows, OSX, Raspberry-Pi and Android devices as such no one really looked back. Although jokingly for nostalgic reasons we talked about how fun it would be to get it running on the Xbox again. In the year 2014 we finally closed the door and renamed from XBMC to what we are now, Kodi. It started. Suddenly (probably due to some strange cosmological alignment) Microsoft announced that it would start to align all devices towards a common Windows 10 platform. Our eyes started twitching and the team became anxious if that would mean the long-lived dream would become a reality again. Then we woke up again, shook our heads and convinced ourselves it was not going to happen as Kodi by that time was becoming too complex to port over. Even migrating the code over for regular Windows 10 devices to the so called Universal Windows Platform (UWP) was thought to be out of reach. Even the Desktop Bridge (Project Centennial) version for getting regular applications to the store was thought to be too difficult. On June 2016 we were proved wrong as we got contacted by developers who had succeeded with relative ease. With some minor adjustments we were able to get the 32-bit version of Kodi packaged and listed on Windows Store in September 2016. You can read more about that story here: Kodi goes Windows Store. With that milestone done we though that’s where the story ends. The long road ahead. Until that time Kodi was still a 32-bit application and work slowly went on porting all needed parts to be 64-bit compliant. Now the UWP story really begins. While 64-bit work was being done, the dream of getting it as true UWP application did not fade away. In fact, with the help and guidance of Microsoft some of our developers started to work in top secret on getting this a reality. Only a select few of the team was informed that this was going on (same happened for the Android port) as we definitely would not get any hopes up in case it would fail. In December 2016 (yes you read that right) the initial reconnaissance was done on what it would take to get it done and it seemed plausible. Initial work that needed to be done was to convert most if not all external code libraries Kodi relies on and get these changes accepted by the original maintaining developer group(s). Once that work was started the current Windows specific code was picked apart piece by piece and slowly converted to be with the UWP specs. A really tedious job as part of the code still include “hacks” based on the first Xbox. As the work of the code libraries was nearing its end we could finally announce that the first 64-bit Kodi builds were available for windows. You can read more about that here: 64-bit Kodi for Windows. Let there be life. Around July 2017 the first faint life signs became visible of starting Kodi as a UWP application on regular Windows 10. From there on work slowly progressed on getting all bits and pieces into place getting Kodi grown up and getting it ready for the Xbox. Somewhere around November 2017 the UWP code was merged into the master Kodi code base and final stages could begin. That also meant that the idea of Kodi running on the Xbox was full out in the open though somehow it remained under the radar. From there on we could easily create test builds that we could install on our Windows devices and continued to improve the UWP version to were we are today. How does it look? Well that’s the fun part about the Kodi environment. It actually looks all the same on any platform so the UWP version is no exception. Most bits and pieces, look and feel are there that you will find on any other platform. Sorry that we can not make it more exciting than that. It is what it is. Just another Kodi platform that looks exactly the same but only on a different device. So we will just redirect you to our about page here https://kodi.tv/about. What are the current limits? What you should really understand and keep remembering is that it is still in early stages of development and has very rough edges, might not be as stable as the regular version and may even be missing some functions. Due to the nature of how UWP works our hands are tied in some areas. Some parts are not even finished yet and our developers are still working on getting it up to the regular standard. As of this writing there’s limited access to only what’s part of your Video and Music folders. Network support is limited to only NFS:// shares. No access to the Blu-ray drive to start the disc or even an attached storage drive (this one is now solved). There might still be problems with certain general python modules that are used by add-ons and we are finding and reporting them to the developers as testing progresses. I’m sure there’s more that might not work as intended yet as there are so many features it just will take a while to go over them. We cannot promise to what extend we can get every feature working as it all depends on what is available to us developers. Final words. In short, we were aware from the beginning there would be limitations when the work started however that never kept us from realizing that dream of becoming once again available on the device that started it all. It almost feels like being reborn again. With this announcement and all the other work being done for the upcoming V18 release, the year 2018 is going to be amazing. We would certainly would like to thank the developers who helped and supported us through the entire process. First and foremost, afedchin who handled the UWP development from a certain point. Rechi and Paxxi for their assistance and support on getting the code libraries compiled and cleaned up as well their code reviews. Finally, the rest of Team Kodi and of course all you (forum) users who keep supporting us. Help and support. For help and support you can visit the dedicated forum section for Windows UWP. We have added some sticky threads with known issues and FAQ and will be updating those along the way. Apparel, donations or getting involved. Getting involved is quite easy. We encourage you to report problems with these builds on our forum first and after that, if asked, submit bugs on Trac (following this guide: How to submit a bug report). Do note that we need detailed information so we can investigate the issue. We also appreciate providing support in our Forums where you can. You can of course also follow or help promote Kodi on all available social networks. Read more on the get involved page. We are always happy to receive a donation by which you show your support and appreciation, and t-shirts and Raspberry Pi cases may still be found on the sidebar for purchase. All donations and other income goes towards the XBMC foundation and are typically used for travel to attend conferences, any necessary paperwork and legal fees, purchasing necessary hardware and licenses for developers and hopefully the yearly XBMC Foundation Developers Conference. Kodi Gear. Kodi (formerly XBMC) is a free and open source media player application developed by the XBMC/Kodi Foundation, a non-profit technology consortium. Kodi is available for multiple operating-systems and hardware platforms, featuring a 10-foot user interface for use with televisions and remote controls. It allows users to play and view most videos, music, podcasts, and other digital media files from local and network storage media and the internet. How to Stream Kodi to Chromecast, Xbox One, DLNA Devices. Easy and Free: Stream videos from Kodi (XBMC) running on Android to Chromecast, Xbox One, Apple TV, or any other DLNA capable video streaming device. One thing I’ve heard many people ask about is if there is any way to stream Kodi to Chromecast, Xbox One, Apple TV , Amazon Fire Stick or any other DLNA capable video streaming device. Well, if you use Kodi on Android, I’m excited to share that it is possible, and it’s actually pretty easy and completely free ! Here’s how. Android Apps and Files You Will Need. ES File Explorer Kodi for Android from the Google Play Store (auto-updates) or from Kodi.tv (manual) LocalCast PlayerCoreFactory.xml File. Setup Kodi on Android to Play Videos to LocalCast. All you need to do is take that xml file and place it in userdata folder . In order to do that follow these steps: Download the xml file to your Android device using your browser, it should go in to a Download folder. Open ES File Explorer , and go into the settings and check the box to show hidden files . Go into the Download folder and copy the xml file that should be there. Go to /Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi/userdata/ and paste the xml file there. Play Kodi Videos to Stream to Chromecast, Xbox One, Apple TV or any other DLNA Device. Go ahead and try it out. When you play a video in Kodi on your Android device, it will open LocalCast to then let you choose which device to stream it to. Enjoy! How to Stream Kodi Video Add-on Content (like Exodus, SALTS, etc) to Chromecast or other DLNA devices. At first, I thought it was impossible to stream a video off of an add-on like Exodus or SALTS, however, it is possible! Note that not all sources will work using this method as some source providers include metadata in the stream URL which LocalCast will not be able to interpret (constant loading or connecting message). Before trying to cast, always launch LocalCast first, click on cast button (yellow, bottom right), and connect to the DLNA renderer you want to cast to. Troubleshooting Tips. If playing a video in Kodi doesn’t open LocalCast, try the following: Check that the playercorefactory.xml file was placed in the userdata folder correctly. Check that the playercorefactory.xml file downloaded properly and is complete. Try deleting it and downloading another copy. Check that the playercorefactory.xml file is spelled correctly. Check that LocalCast was installed properly. Read the following if you have trouble with a non-stop “Loading” message in LocalCast when trying to stream to Xbox One: Completely shut down your Xbox One. Completely shut down your Android streaming device. Connect to your router’s admin control panel (192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1 and look-up your default admin login if you don’t know it). Go into advanced settings and reboot your router. After router has rebooted, power on your Xbox One and Android streaming device. Run the LocalCast app to make sure it connects to your Xbox One. Run the Xbox Video app on your Xbox One. Run the Kodi app on your Android streaming device and play a video. If you’re having trouble trying to stream from a video add-on like Exodus or SALTS, first verify you can cast local media from your streaming device. In SALTS go to movies, trending movies, pick a random movie, hard click to get menu, select “Play Trailer” (trailers have always worked for me since they are hosted in google repositories which do not send invalid metadata in stream URL) If the trailer was cast and displayed successfully then your configuration is correct, problem is with source stream URL (try another source) To view all sources in SALTS when auto-run is enabled: hard click movieshowetc., pick “Select Source” If using IceFilms, you can disable metadata from add-on menu. My Recommendation to Kodi Users. I always recommend to Kodi users who are streaming with unofficial add-ons to play it safe and use a VPN. A VPN will encrypt all of your data in and out of your home theater PC or even your entire house. It also relays your data through a VPN server which you can pick from all over the world or make it random. Here’s what that does… Servers where you download from will not know where you are geographically located (great for accessing geo-blocked content on Netflix and other services that you might want to Chromecast) Your ISP (Internet Service Provider) will not be able to tell what you are downloading or where you are downloading it from. I personally use IPVanish and it works great out of the box and also has a nice interface for you to be in complete control over managing what server you connect to and other settings. They also have 500+ servers around the worlds with great speed so you won’t see any drop in bandwidth speed. © 2018 Kinkead Tech. I would love to keep sharing with you! Let me send you a weekly update with some of my latest tips and tutorials to keep you "in the know!"

Still have a question? Ask your own! EDIT: As of December 29th, 2017, Kodi is now available in the Xbox One store. You could stream media from Kodi to your Xbox via the UPnP server built in to Kodi, but installing it as a native Xbox One app is currently not possible. That said, Microsoft has been working to make it easier for smaller developers to bring games and other programs to the Xbox platform. Their new "Indy Developer" program is very interesting: Probably the biggest thing holding Kodi back from being developed for Xbox One is licensing. Companies like Dolby charge licensing fees for their codecs, and those fees aren't paid by developers of open source software projects. It would be interesting to find a way to charge a small fee for the app and get a portion of that fee to the owners of the codecs to help get Kodi out to as many folks as possible. There may also be an issue with the GPL license ( GNU General Public License ) that Kodi is released under being incompatible with Microsoft's NDA, but I don't know enough about that to comment further. As others have already pointed out…there is no Kodi/XBMC app or a Kodi fork available for Xbox One ….yet. However, you should know (and probably you already do) that the HDMI port on your XBOX one is built pass-through. Which means you can plug-in any mod-box such as an Android box or a Fire-TV/Stick, with Kodi installed in it and access the same through the ‘TV’ option on your console. This should bring up the Fire-TV interface on your console and you can access Kodi from there. Here is a video tutorial on it: For the setup mentioned above, you would have to use your Fire-TV/android TV remote to navigate through the interface. Now, if you want to use the Xbox one controller to navigate through the Kodi interface, here is a sweet guide for it. One other option is to run Kodi on an external media server/laptop/whatever you fancy and stream the output to your Xbox using UPnP (Universal Plug ’n Play Protocol). For this, however, you need to add your resources to the library on Kodi. This section has already been answered by Wesley Garrison , so I won’t dig deep in it but here are two helpful tutorials to back this masterplan ! Microsoft has finally agreed to allow Kodi to come home. As of when we are not sure, it was only announced 2 days ago.

Either that or tell people to install it on another device and connect it to the xbox hdmi port. STEVEN R MACHADO says. Totally misleading.. my XBox One S is capable of 4K yet the stick barely manages 1080p. I was hoping for Kodi working with the xbox hardware to yield a 4k output (or a step up). There is no Official Kodi launched for Xbox till now. This article explains how to stream Kodi on Xbox one. There is no Official Kodi available for Xbox one @Steven. It is about Streaming Kodi on Xbox one. U have to gey the new fire stick that supports 4K. I don’t quiet understand the big advantages to do this besides you don’t have to change the source at your TV. Unless you have only one single HDMI port on your TV this makes no sense. The biggest reason to have Kodi local on the Xbox One (S or X) is that you would be able to use the power of the better hardware than using a fire TV stick or a raspberry PI.

I just installed it and it works. Just installed kodi, how does it work? After installin Kodi on my Xbox from the store v17,6 which is one of the best and most supported, it updated to Kodi v18 Leila. Now I got no skins and probably there will not be any support from the main adon pack like Exodus on Salt 🙁 works! someone said exodus is available through kodil but i’m not sure. will have to try this weekend. it’s decent even if you can stream official addons like iplayer even if you have to configure vpns like ivacy and ipvanish over router because it’s a new project with new challenges and more limitations. but if it won’t be able to stream the most common stuff, or offer 4k support, then i’m not sure if jumping to this bandwagon right now is a good idea. My Xbox one says “not available” when i go to install it from the store? So i can’t install? Any idea? Thanks. David Leighty says. The screenshots are inaccurate.

There was a time when using Kodi on the Xbox One required a workaround; Installing it on a device like a Fire TV Stick and using the HDMI passthrough on the console. Thankfully, that's no longer necessary. Kodi is now officially available on the Xbox One thanks to the developers rebuilding the app in UWP for Windows 10-based devices. It's still an early alpha of version 18, Leia, so while it's here and usable, there are things which are buggy and some that just don't work at all. The first thing to do is to download it from the Store. If you have ever installed it on a Windows 10 PC from the Store, you'll find it in your ready to install section on your console. If not, either search for it in the Store on the Xbox One or hit the link below to install it from your PC. What you can do. Much of the core functionality of Kodi is available to play around with. There are currently known issues related to the development of the UWP version, though. For example, right now you can't connect Kodi to a USB drive that's attached to the console. You'll need to use a controller for navigation right now as well, it seems. I've tried using an Xbox One media remote and it doesn't behave at all. Hopefully, something else that'll be remedied when it comes to a final launch. Most of the add-ons available through the official Kodi repository work, though, albeit with varying degrees of success. You can also set it up to accept a live TV signal from something like a HDHomeRun. I've encountered problems using the built-in NextPVR front-end, though, so I wasn't able to hook up my DVR, but using the HDHomeRun PVR add-on successfully delivers live TV (but doesn't allow access to HDHomeRun DVR). The same can be said for audio add-ons, you'll generally have a good time installing and using them, but always remember this is a work-in-progress build of Kodi and it's likely to go wrong at some point. Speaking of Kodi add-ons. When you first setup Kodi it will be completely empty. You have to add sources of media, and there are a bunch of legal add-ons available right out of the box in the official Kodi repository. These include YouTube, Twitch, and OneDrive, as well as some services provided by cable TV networks, news channels, and the Smithsonian Museum. It's not limited to video, either, so you can also pull in music and photos to your Kodi setup. Bottom line. Right now you can install and use a proper version of Kodi on your Xbox One. And that's tremendous. But it's also an incredibly early look at the finished article with much that doesn't work properly, or at all. The best way to get involved is to jump in and play around with it, but equally, you won't want to rely on it as your main Kodi setup right now. The developers are working hard and the best place to check progress and feedback bugs is in the Kodi forums. As Kodi becomes more refined on the Xbox One we'll be sure to update this guide with everything you can do to get the most from it. Updated January 26, 2018: Guide rewritten now Kodi is available on Xbox One officially. Xbox One XBMC / Kodi Live TV OneGuide Integration. This Xbox One XBMC integration guide shows how to configure Xbox One OneGuide and Kodi on your HTPC so saying voice commands will make Kodi change channels. Cable or satellite customers who have an Xbox One with Kinect rave about OneGuide, Xbox One’s integration with live TV services. You can use Xbox’s interface or voice commands and the Xbox will send IR commands from the Kinect to the cable or satellite set-top box to change the channels accordingly. But what if you’re a “cord-cutter” like me and don’t have cable or satellite? You’ve been out of luck, having to reach for a separate remote control to control Kodi instead of being able to use Xbox OneGuide and voice controls… until now, that is! This guide will share how you can configure your Xbox One and Kodi on your HTPC to make it so saying “Xbox Watch NBC” will make Kodi change channels to NBC. KinkeadTech: Pioneering Home Theater Automation for You. At the time of writing this, I can say with confidence that I am the first person to figure this out and write about it on the Internet. I’ve searched and searched for this for quite some time and have never found anybody else that has done this. There Isn’t Any Kodi App for Xbox One (yet) I get a lot of questions about this, so before I get into it, I want to make one thing very clear … there is no Kodi app for Xbox One . However, I’m still hopeful that it might happen sometime in the future. There is a process to compile the Kodi app using the UWP (Universal Windows Platform), but not sure how difficult it would be to do or if it’s even possible. Instead, this tutorial will assume you have a Home Theater PC (HTPC) that has Kodi installed on it, and you have plugged the “ HDMI out ” from your HTPC into the “ HDMI in ” on the Xbox One (as if your HTPC is your cable box). My Home Theater Setup. But before I get into it, let me give you a run-through of my setup. I use an ASUS VivoPC as my home theater PC that runs Kodi and plugs into the Xbox One. You can read my review of the ASUS VivoPC here. I use Kodi (formerly XBMC) for all my TV watching. On top of having a Sickbeard/SAB/Usenet setup to download show episodes and the availability of many video Add-ons (like my favorite, Genesis Exodus) for streaming of TV shows and movies, I also have an Argus Live TV PVR back-end installed on another computer upstairs (for best over-the-air TV antenna reception). That computer has a USB TV tuner that I use to plug my antenna into it. I use the Hauppauge 1191 WinTV-HVR-955Q USB TV Tuner For Notebook. For my antenna, I use the ClearStream 1 and it works pretty well, except for a few channels due to the fact that I’m a fair distance away from the TV station broadcasters. It’s only a 40 mile range, but there are more expensive versions of the ClearStream that give you more range. Now, with the Argus PVR add-on installed on Kodi on my main HTPC downstairs, I can watch live TV from my living room. In addition, I have the Xbox One with Kinect. If you don’t have one, you should get one. In order to quickly switch between Xbox One and Kodi, I plugged my HTPC into the HDMI In on the Xbox One so I can access it via the TV app on the Xbox One. Like I mentioned, I’ve been trying to figure out how to get the 2 systems a bit more integrated. Finally, I got it. Check out the video… Video Demo of Xbox One XBMC / Kodi Live TV Integration. Xbox One OneGuide Settings. On the Xbox One, go to Settings > OneGuide . Setup your TV line-up as “ Antenna ” for your zip code (I believe this is not available in all areas yet, but give it a try). Then setup your TV, AV Receiver, and Cable Box. The TV and AV Receiver should be self-explanatory, but the Cable Box is the tricky part. When it asks for brand, enter “ hp ” and then choose to enter your own code “ N1679 “. A Note About the Brand. The brand “Media Center PC” used to work, but now doesn’t work any more for some reason. It just says that it couldn’t detect it. I’m not sure exactly what it is trying to detect. Maybe Xbox is finally working on implementing WMC integration so maybe it’s trying to find WMC over ethernet? Anyway, I used “hp” because I use an HP USB MCE IR receiver. But “hp” should work with any MCE IR receiver. Notes About the Remote Code. If you try guided setup where the Xbox tries to toggle the power to your “cable” box, it will run through several different codes. Here they are in order along with their results. N1272 : Makes the HDMI input turn off and back on every time you change channels causing the TV display to go black for several seconds… no good. N2782 : No issues with screen blanking, but the IR codes being sent to the computer were inconsistent and unreliable. N1679 : This is the one that worked the best. The only downside is that you have to manually map the remote command codes to the keyboard emulation actions in EventGhost, but you should be using EventGhost anyway. N1267 : Same issue as N1272 with the screen blanking when you change channels. EventGhost Remote to Key Mappings. Now that the Xbox One is sending IR commands to the HTPC, you need to configure EventGhost so that your HTPC knows what to do with those commands. Note: Be sure to check out my guide on How My Xbox One Turns My Lights On and Off since that goes over how to set up EventGhost to translate IR commands from the Xbox One. Install MCE Remote Plugin and Test It. The first thing to do is the enable the MCE Remote plugin which allows EventGhost to receive IR commands from the IR receiver. Then, you will need to do some testing of some channel changes from the Xbox One to see what shows up in EventGhost’s log panel. Upon a channel change, the Xbox One will send the channel number (for example 12.1) in this format… MceRemote.FBFE (1) MceRemote.FBFD (2) MceRemote.Star (don’t have this mapped to any key) MceRemote.FBFE (1) MceRemote.FBF4 (Enter) Create Macros with Triggers. Basically, you need to create a separate macro for each of the 10 numbers (0-9) as well as “Enter”. Then, drag each IR command from the log panel (on the left) and drop it into the appropriate macro. For instance, drag “MceRemote.FBFE” from the log panel and drop it in the “1” macro. If your IR commands are matching mine, here’s a cheat sheet so you can enter them all without having to test using Xbox channel changes… MceRemote.FBFF = 0 MceRemote.FBFE = 1 MceRemote.FBFD = 2 MceRemote.FBFC = 3 MceRemote.FBFB = 4 MceRemote.FBFA = 5 MceRemote.FBF9 = 6 MceRemote.FBF8 = 7 MceRemote.FBF7 = 8 MceRemote.FBF6 = 9 MceRemote.FBF4 = Enter. Add Keystroke Actions. Next, you need to create an Emulate Keystrokes action inside of each of the 11 macros. Just right-click on the macro, Add Action… , open the Window category, and select Emulate Keystrokes . Then, for the Text to type , enter for the 9 macro. Live TV PVR Back-end Channel Numbers. Since sub-channels are currently not working in the Argus PVR Backend or in Kodi, you will need to configure channels in the PVR back-end to match Xbox One OneGuide channel numbers, ignoring the periods . For example… This is the reason why you should not have the MceRemote.Star command mapped to any key. This way, the HTPC just ignores that. If sub-channels are working for your PVR back-end and in Kodi, the ignore this section. Support for sub-channels was supposedly built into Kodi 14 Helix, but I’m not seeing it. It’s probably because Argus needs to update their back-end software as well as their front-end Kodi add-on in order to enable this feature. Kodi (XBMC) Live TV Settings. Settings > Live TV > General > Use back-end channels numbers: O n. You will need to make sure this setting is turned on in order for Kodi to use the numbers that you’ve configured in your back-end. Settings > Live TV > Playback > Start playback minimized: Off. When I was playing around with it, I noticed that if the live TV playback was minimized (meaning that it shows in a small window next to the list of channels), then the channel change commands would not actually change the channel, but instead it would just select that channel in the list making it so you have to hit ok one more time. Settings > Live TV > Playback > Confirm channel switches by pressing OK: On. There are 2 reasons why this setting needs to be on. First, the Xbox One is already sending IR commands that end in Enter (a.k.a. MceRemote.FBF4). Second, since we are ignoring the “star” or period character, there is a longer gap where the period would normally be entered. Because of this, the channel switch window will time out very quickly if you don’t have this setting turned on. Enjoy Seamless Kodi (XBMC) Live TV Channel Surfing with Xbox One OneGuide! Go ahead and try it! Use voice commands like “Xbox Watch NBC”, and watch as it tunes Kodi to that channel. Finally a cord-cutter like yourself can enjoy this simple luxury that cable and satellite customers have been enjoying, except you’re saving money and getting more out of your automated home theater. Work-In-Progress Areas. Navigating and Selecting in Kodi using Xbox One Controller. If you watch the video at the top of this page, you’ll see I demonstrate how to use the Xbox One controller’s triggers and bumpers to navigate around Kodi. I did this by using EventGhost to translate the Replay, Rewind, Skip, and Next IR commands into Up, Left, Right, Down keystrokes (respectively). The one big glaring issue with this is that I have yet to figure out what Xbox IR command I could use to emulate the “Enter” keystroke. There doesn’t seem to be any other IR command I can trigger from the Xbox One controller besides those 4, so I may consider using the left trigger for this, but then I can only navigate right. Single Xbox One Command to Start Kodi Live TV Playback. Another issue that prevents this from being a completely seamless experience is that I can’t use the Xbox One to start Kodi’s Live TV playback, but I can only use it to change the channels once Live TV is already playing. Even if I could use an Xbox One command to press “e” to bring up EPG (the TV guide), the commands to change channels still don’t launch the channel. It just selects it, and you would have to hit enter one more time. If you primarily use Kodi just for Live TV, then you can turn on Settings > Live TV > Playback > Continue last channel on startup . Otherwise, if you also like to play TV, movies, and music from local storage or add-ons, then that setting may not be helpful. Got Any Tips?

Be patient. People have to be patient and give it time before it becomes the Kodi we all know and love. This is going to be great! Just give the guys enough time get it right. I know true Kodi fans understand this already. I can't wait to put my build on here! 70 out of 73 people found this helpful. Get to know Kodi first before giving it a low rating. Kodi is a one of a kind app and if you don't know what it is for or what it's capable of doing then you should not give it a low Rating because you're having a bad day. This is a standalone player that doesn't absolutely NOTHING unless you configure it. And to configure it's a project you need to dedicate time to. Research about Add-ons and other Kool stuff Kodi is built for requires patience. With over 5+ Years of experience with the Kodi Media Player I can tell you right now that the crashes one is experiencing is due to the Add-on or the way Kodi is configured. It, the player itself just DOESN'T crash, period. Anybody with the same time experience as me would agree. Think of Kodi like an Android OS but empty. An empty Android OS does NOTHING. You need to install APPS, Right? Same thing with Kodi but instead of apps it uses Add-ons that provide you with entertainment depending on the Add-on. Know what you're rating before you actually rate it. Enjoy and use legal Add-ons. 198 out of 217 people found this helpful. Love Kodi but . The app isn't the same as the pure downloaded version. Some add-ons work in downloadable version but not in the Windows app. Might be how MS secures it? In either case, it's a fantastic product. I recommend just getting the download from the official site. Works better and upgrading is easy. The app auto-upgrades which is neat but maybe not the best if you use a bunch of add-ons that haven't kept pace with the base install of Kodi. 115 out of 126 people found this helpful. Great Kodi Universal app. Easy touch and click, great for tablet. Need more smooth!! Thank you Kodi Team. 20 out of 21 people found this helpful. Great Entertainment, Just Learn to Use It. I went to KODI.tv and read about it. Works great. Shaya wants to "hide the taskbar" which is in Windows. Search "how do I hide my taskbar" for instructions with CORTINA and it will come up on the Internet how to do this. Simple You must download "repositories" and then you get FREE everything, movies, tv, radio. Just Fantastic and works great. 25 out of 26 people found this helpful. IPTV Christmas. Kodi TV is not perfect but I don't expect to be. Kodi 17.x takes time and patience to learn to use but once you do, you will love it. There's Freetelly for those who want everything automatically configured and PlayOn TV which is pretty good too. VLC will play m3u playlists as well. Love Koei for my IPTV and I pay to use a good server, $5 a month. I save cable and satellite services. Think of Koei like XDA for Streaming. You have to put some work learning it. Don't expect everything given to you on a silver platter. You actually will have to self-teach yourself but its worth it. 24 out of 25 people found this helpful. Can Never Update.
