Made a small addon that puts live cam rooms inside Kodi - real-time catalogs sorted by viewers, HD HLS streams playable natively. 4 sources in one: Chaturbate, Stripchat, BongaCams and CAM4. Free, no account, no ads inside.

Install: download the zip and "Install from zip file":

https://github.com/pgx47/duckurbate (link in the Kodi section of the README)

Just shipped it, feedback welcome - tell me if browsing/playback works on your setup, platform bugs, whatever. Same dev also made a Stremio addon and a browser cam roulette if anyone cares.

18+ only obviously.

Completely reinstalled Kodi and The Crew. I cannot add Torbox as a resolver. I start the process and both Torbox and The Crew act like it was successfully added, but it's not in Debrid Manager nor is it working.

I have one installation where I added it to an older version where it is still available, but I cannot add it to new installs.

Any suggestions?

I use Umbrella w/ Magneto, FentasticPlus & Premiumize. Someone recently walked me thru a custom scrape and I had success by manipulating the title and manually specifying season / episode.

What providers is everyone using besides Torentio? As goofy as it sounds, i'm trying to watch the last two seasons of Takedown w/ Chris Hansen, but don't see anything after S18.

I don't fully understand scraping and providers, so apologies if this sounds basic.

After about 6 months or a tad longer, of having my theatre room down for some work; I finally turned on my system; which is a Shield, with Kodi with Umbrella and Bingie Skin and RD. I got a TON of links. Even some in the 80 and 90 GB rangeu. And every link I tried played. I have to give props where it's do. It's like RD hasn't gone down_

Hello have a new device and downloaded umbrella. when I activate external sources in umbrella I cannot find Cocoa or magneto module listed, advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I have a number of tv show lists as widgets and would like to filter out shows where they are fully watched from displaying in widgets. So for example, the "trending" list wouldn't displays shows I've already watched (unless a new season has started airing or I haven't finished it). Is this possible? Using a combination of Umbrella and TMDBh lists from tratk

The other feature I'm looking for is the ability to resume my tv shows instead of having to sort through the seasons and find the episode each time.

Hi, is there any Kodi addon similar to Penguplay on Str*mio that provides free streaming links over HTTPS?

Any recommendations? Thanks!

Any one experiencing issues with the latest version? Menus are blank when accessing the add-on. Only see icons showing up and nothing works.

¡Hola! Acabo de instalar Palantir 3 en Kodi 22rc en webOS y, cuando lo arranco, me sale un mensaje de error de Python. ¿Cómo puedo solucionarlo?

Hi all,

I'm new to the game. Just downloaded the Kodi Xenon build to watch movies and live sports. I spent like an hour trying to play multiple different movies, and finally found one link that "worked" and actually loaded the movie. When it was finally playing, it was super laggy and basically unwatchable.

I love the Xenon build interface and everything seems perfect, up until the point of actually using it for it's purpose (movies/TV/sports).

Is there anything I can do differently? I'm a medical student, and not too tech savvy. Do I need to switch VPN locations? Do I just keep trying different links until one loads properly and runs smoothly? Just kinda lost.

Hi everyone, developer of Stremio for Kodi here. Since the original release post, I've been working on the interface and everyday usability. Here are the latest additions:

• Optional local profiles: a Who’s Watching? screen, sidebar avatars, separate watch progress and libraries, plus profile PIN support. Profiles can be managed in Settings → Profiles.

• MovieLeaks catalogue artwork: posters and backgrounds now appear in the Home rows, with improved artwork recovery.

• Native Kodi keyboard: the preference now also applies to other text inputs, including settings fields, rather than only Search (1.0.121).

• Quieter interface: Settings → General → Show notifications lets you hide corner popups. The 1.0.122 update also makes the small background Loading indicators follow that switch, while keeping cancellable progress and confirmation dialogs.

• Preferred audio language is available in Playback settings.

New features preview here (including the two new screenshots: profile selection and the MovieLeaks Home view):

Connect your Simkl account to Noiro.tv and browse your movies, TV shows and anime in one place.

Your Simkl watchlists are now available in Connections and Catalogs: Plan to Watch, Watching, Completed, On Hold and Dropped. Posters display as full portrait covers, with direct links to each title on Simkl.

Continue Watching combines saved Simkl playback with the next aired TV episode. Catalogs → Kodi layout now includes Simkl watchlist rows, plus Simkl and Merged · Stremio + Simkl sources for Continue Watching and Library. TV support requires the matching addon update, currently being validated in the Mac preview before release.

This first release provides read-only access. Your Simkl lists and watch history stay unchanged, and automatic playback syncing to Simkl is not enabled. Custom Simkl PRO/VIP lists are outside this first release.

Get started: Account → Connections → Simkl. Connect your account, then choose your rows in Catalogs → Kodi layout.

These are local addon profiles; they do not create extra Stremio accounts. The addon uses your existing Stremio setup and Kodi for playback.

Feedback is welcome, especially from TV/remote users. If you run into an issue, please include your Kodi version, device and addon version so I can investigate.

I’ve been using Umbrella but noticed it can get a little clunky so I tried switching over to POV or The Gears to try something new. I love the speed of them, but I noticed it’s missing something or I can’t seem to configure it properly.

In Umbrella I can search for Trending Trakt lists for movies or shows and it filters them for each just fine.

In POV or Gears I can also search for Trending Trakt lists but it doesn’t filter them by movies/shows. It shows the entire list with both combined. It makes it difficult to separate widgets since both are combined instead of filtering them like Umbrella. Is this possible to filter the lists like Umbrella or am I doing something wrong?

Looking for testers!⬆️

Hi everyone,

I keep getting recurring Kodi notifications saying “JetExtractors, Store refreshing : Foxxy” and sometimes “JetExtractors, Store refreshing: SportX:2.”

I found both entries under The Loop, but I can’t access any settings for them. The only option I see is “Add to favourites.”

I’ve also uninstalled Mad Titan, but the notifications are still appearing.

Does anyone know what’s triggering these notifications and how to disable them permanently? I’d prefer not to uninstall The Loop or reset Kodi if possible.

Thanks!

From the moment its released, no 4k results neither on umbrella or pov (magnetto scrapper), even with scanning all sources..

Im sure ita matter of id or sth..any workaround?

The Gears 2.4.3 shows empty menus on Kodi 22 (Piers RC1): cause and a one-line fix

Summary

If you installed The Gears (chainsrepo, v2.4.3) on Kodi 22 and the add-on opens with only "..", or its lists are blank, it isn't your install. It's an API change.

Issue

The add-on opens, then nothing loads. In kodi.log there's one line per menu item, like:

```

navigator.main._process###: ITEM FAILED [RootList] item={'name': 'Discover', ...} err=ListItem_getVideoInfoTag expected 0 arguments

navigator.main###: results_count=0

```

Cause

Gears builds its list items with listitem.getVideoInfoTag(True). Kodi 22 doesn't accept that argument any more (the call takes none), so every item fails and the list comes back empty. I found 34 calls in 18 files and no other problem. I tested POV 6.10.05, Chain Reaction, Ghost, Otaku and WatchNixtoons2 on the same Kodi 22 build, and none of them use it.

Fix

Replace getVideoInfoTag(True) with getVideoInfoTag() in the Gears add-on folder, then restart Kodi (it keeps the old code loaded until you do).

Folder: ...\Kodi\addons\plugin.video.gears (Windows: %APPDATA%\Kodi\addons\plugin.video.gears)

Linux/macOS:

bash cd ~/.kodi/addons/plugin.video.gears grep -rl "getVideoInfoTag(True)" --include=*.py . | xargs sed -i 's/getVideoInfoTag(True)/getVideoInfoTag()/g'

Windows (PowerShell):

powershell Get-ChildItem "$env:APPDATA\Kodi\addons\plugin.video.gears" -Recurse -Filter *.py | ForEach-Object { $t = Get-Content $_.FullName -Raw if ($t -match 'getVideoInfoTag\(True\)') { Copy-Item $_.FullName "$($_.FullName).bak" ($t -replace 'getVideoInfoTag\(True\)','getVideoInfoTag()') | Set-Content $_.FullName -NoNewline } }

Caveats

• An add-on update from the repo will overwrite the patch. Re-run the command, or turn off auto-update for Gears until the author ships a fixed version.
• I only checked that the menus load and populate. I haven't tested playback or scraping.
• This is for people running Kodi 22. On 21.x the add-on is fine as it is.
• I'd also tell the dev (I don't know them), since it's a one-token change on their side.

Hope this saves someone a few hours.

Hi all,

I got tired of opening the subtitle menu every time the auto-downloaded subtitle was out of sync, and of subtitle text blinking on and off between lines. So I made a small Kodi add-on that fixes both.

**What it does**

1. **One-button subtitle cycling**

   - Short press during playback: downloads and loads the NEXT subtitle result.

   - It searches ALL your enabled subtitle add-ons at once (a4kSubtitles, OpenSubtitles, Subdl, etc.) and merges the results.

   - A notification shows which one you're on, e.g. "3/40 Subdl - Arabic".

   - It skips subtitles already shown in the current video (like the auto-downloaded one), so you never get the same file twice.

   - Long press: opens Kodi's normal subtitle search window.

2. **No gaps between subtitle lines (optional, off by default)**

   - A small background service fixes every external SRT subtitle, however it was loaded: auto-download, the subtitle window, or the button.

   - Short gaps between lines (default 1.5 s or less) are closed, so the text no longer blinks between lines.

   - On longer pauses, the line stays a bit longer (default +2 s) and then disappears.

   - Both values are adjustable in the add-on settings, and you can turn the whole feature on or off there.

   - Works with UTF-8 and Windows-1256 (Arabic) SRT files.

**Install**

1. Download the zip from Releases: https://github.com/subzero75/kodi-subtitle-cycler/releases

2. Kodi → Add-ons → Install from zip file.

3. Map a remote button using the keymap in the repo (the README explains how to find your button id with Keymap Editor).

4. Optional: enable "Close gaps between subtitle lines" in the add-on settings.

**Limitations**

- Embedded image subtitles (PGS from Blu-ray rips) can't be gap-fixed, since they're images, not text.

- An auto-downloaded subtitle shows as-is for about a second before the gap-free copy replaces it.

- Tested on Kodi 22 Beta 2 / CoreELEC (Ugoos AM9 Pro). Feedback from other devices and Kodi versions is very welcome.

**How it was made**

Full transparency: I built this together with Claude (Anthropic's AI). I came up with the ideas and did all the testing on my own setup, and Claude wrote the code, debugged it with me using my Kodi logs, and helped package it as a proper add-on. Claude is listed as a co-author on the GitHub commits.

Hi all,

Im using Red Light with success, moving on from FLAM. But having intermittent issues with "Last Played" Addon (https://github.com/5-star/repository.5star) which I've used for years, for a simple autoplay bookmark list of Shows/Films im watching.

Now when i pick a video from Last Played, it crashes, and I get a Kodi error, with usual "Check the Logs" error box - the issue seems to be intermittent however, so have uploaded the log for any advice :-

Kodi Logs - See error @ 18:08 time stamp >>

https://pastebin.com/Xt6S02QH or

https://paste.kodi.tv/ejozuzowur.kodi

• Operating System: Android (FireTV)
• Device: FireTV Cube 2nd Gen
• Add-on affected: Red Light / Last Played (by 5Star)
• Version of Kodi: v21.2 (Omega)
• Version of add-on: Red Light v2.8.3 / Last Played v6.4.0
• Country: UK
• Any support services: Torbox

Appreciate help to understand the issue - or any suggestions for better bookmark list addons!

If you've ever built home rows by hand, you know the drill. Into the skin settings, Add widget, Video add-ons → TMDb Helper → Movies → … then back out and try POV → Movies → … instead, because you can't see what a folder actually contains until it's on your home screen. Half of them turn out empty, or slow, or not quite what you wanted, so you go back in with the remote and do it all again. Then again for the next profile.

That was me every time something needed changing on our Shield, so I built two tools. Both are free and MIT-licensed.

Kodi Manager: https://github.com/glasgowm148/kodi-manager

A Kodi add-on that puts your whole setup in a browser on your phone or laptop:

• Status page: what's playing, free memory, whether debrid/Trakt/TMDb are responding, failing home rows and the last backup, with 7-day graphs
• Every add-on's settings in one searchable list. Search "torbox" to find it everywhere, and paste tokens from your phone
• Playback chain: which skin, helper and player your clicks actually go through
• Backups: automatic before every change, plus checkpoints and one-click undo
• Logs and a shareable debug report with your tokens stripped out
• Optional cached home rows with "View more", and a layout editor for Bingie

It's local-network only, token-protected, has no telemetry, and is read-only until you turn on writes. Install the zip from Releases and turn on "Allow LAN access".

nvidia-MCP: https://github.com/glasgowm148/nvidia-MCP

This is the one that changed how I run the TV. It's an MCP server that gives an AI assistant (Claude Desktop, Codex, etc.) proper access to the Shield and Kodi. I describe what I want and it does the work. So far it has:

• Gone through my add-ons and picked better home rows, then rebuilt the home screen around them
• Made Trakt lists for the rows, including a UK "what's everyone watching" list that updates itself every day
• Set up a separate Kids profile, then split out all the kids' viewing and moved their watch history across
• Tracked down and fixed a memory issue, a profile-switching bug and a Kodi 22 exit hang
• Merged all my watchlists into one
• Added a bunch of customisations so things work exactly as I want them to

All of that happened without me touching the remote. Before changing anything it shows exactly what it'll do, backs up, and can undo it. It refuses anything disruptive while something is playing or paused, so it won't restart Kodi mid-film. It starts read-only; write tools stay off until you enable them.

Will it work on my setup?

• Kodi Manager: any device on Kodi 19+ should work (Fire TV, Android boxes, LibreELEC, PC). But I've only used it day to day on a Shield with Kodi 22, so back up first and let me know. Most of it is skin-independent. The layout editor only switches on for an unmodified Bingie 2.0.2 + Skin Shortcuts 2.0.3.
• nvidia-MCP: built and tested on the Shield. The Kodi side should work elsewhere, and other Android TV boxes might partly work over ADB. It needs a computer on the same network with Python 3.11+. Kodi Manager is optional; it adds the Bingie layout tools.

Both are prerelease, so expect rough edges. Bug reports and PRs are welcome.

Just found out that Trakt free only supports one device at a time, and looking for a good alternative to run on POV. I’ve seen mention of simkl and mdblist, but curious to know how well either are, if they support multiple devices, and if I can import my current history into either.

Thanks in advance

ETA: thank you to everyone who commented. I may have my information incorrect after all, however, have been experiencing an issue where Trakt worked on one device and not the other, with identical builds/add ons, so may just be experiencing another issue altogether. Trying out MDBlist and will see how that goes.
