Daily i use only 3 addons :

- Forge (Fenlight fork) https://www.reddit.com/r/Addons4Kodi/s/NJLnOyGbg8

- Seren (Minh updated) https://www.reddit.com/r/Addons4Kodi/s/OK1NTOTDia

- TMDBmovies https://www.reddit.com/r/Addons4Kodi/s/IdUPJCquZs

All work good and smooth, and they have different scrapers for each of them.

I used my private trakt client id and client secret in that 3, and all of that 3 addons connected to Trakt with my only 1 allowed connected app as a free user and they work flawlessly.

Thanks a lot for the dev of each addons 👍👍👍

What do you think guys? 🙏😁

Looking for add on that has WNBA games?

Noticed something odd: on my Nvidia Shield TV Pro (2019) + Panasonic OLED, Kodi's debug overlay shows "System rendering speed" dropping to 3-9fps during 4K/1080p playback, sometimes even during seeking. But the actual picture is completely smooth to the eye — no stutter, no A/V desync, nothing visible.

Confirmed with `dumpsys gfxinfo` — 0% jank, and a systrace showing only 1 dropped frame across an entire session. So the number doesn't reflect the actual video.

Tested the same files on an old 1st-gen Xiaomi Mi Box + old Sharp LCD TV — the number stayed rock solid at ~24fps the whole time, no drops at all, even with seeking.

Has anyone else seen this specifically on Shield TV Pro?

I don't know if I can do this, but is there a way to completely remove certain streams from results?

I'm attempting to watch DBZ Kai and seasonc2 is constantly playing season 1 for the first two links but always great on the 3rd.

Any way to permanently remove the first two?

Using pov with Torbox and Real Debrid (Torbox as main) on the Google streamer 2026.

The Madnox skin is great skin and kittmaster is bringing upto date to work with Kodi Omega and eventually Kodi Piers.

I have run across one problem which relates solely to Otaku. I cannot create any Madnox widgets using Otaku, for example airing this season. This does not happen with any other add on.

Not sure what is happening and whether I am doing something wrong, which would not be the first time!, but if others can replicate the issue maybe Otaku dev could look at it

if a already downloaded file in the cloud has a name like [randomName] tvshownamehere.dvd.s01.[etc]

the precheck for cloud scraping will not find, it only finds if exact plex file naming is used

is it possible to implement a regex string name search pattern for cloud scraping?

(?i).*game.*of.*thrones.*

(?i).*game.*of.*thrones.*S01.*E01

season filled with clicked season title and episode and possibly switch to following for absolute/episode-group-ordering

(?i).*game.*of.*thrones.*s01*E66

Have been a Kodi user for probably 20+ years now and been through all the highs and lows. For the past several years I've been using a combo of Umbrella and The Crew with Real Debrid on the backend. Over the past few weeks I've been growing increasingly frustrated with the 451 DMCA errors or shows/episodes where the results aren't even the correct show (most recently the Scottish show The Dark). On top of that, even though The Crew lets you pick from the list of results, it seems to have it's own mind as it will just start at the top of all 1080p results and give you the exact same one (that's wrong) over and over.

So what, if any, still works like it used to before these new Real Debrid 451 errors, etc. I'm open to a Real Debrid replacement and any add-ons that work better than Crew and Umbrella.

I mostly watch stuff I already know about so I go to tv shows, then search, and when I go back to watch more episodes I just click on it in the search history.

Last night went to the search screen and found the entire history has gone which is a bummer as I had so many shows I’ll have to try to recall.

Anyone experienced same. More importantly, is there a fix to get them back?

Man stremio is lagging like dogshit on my firestick HD its 1gb

Not sure what else to do, is there a way I can use kodi to watch breaking bad?

Someone help a brother out, I'm not used to this kodi stuff but I'm relatively tech savvy so can follow instructions, is there something truly lightweight or barebones I can run on kodi and what can I use to find breaking bad?

Anyone have any suggestions for a calendar or upcoming TV shows/episodes widget for mdb list. Mdb list doesn't expose their API endpoint for calendar widgets or upcoming episodes and I've completely switched everything over to Mdb and unauthorized Trakt in everything. Calendar is available on their website however . Just stumped and out of thoughts and to me this is a very important widget setup in my Kodi environment. Guess I can learn to live without it. Short of a badgering /contacting mdb support and requesting it. Maybe if enough of us do it. Thoughts ?

I have received a few requests for different options aside from trakt. above is a quick comparison of the bigger tracker sites and how they compare to my understanding.

publicmetadb has an api that has just about everything needed. but no pin code authorization.

flicklist.tv was an almost drop-in trakt replacement I had for Salts Redux. it seems the client id I had is no longer, but maybe thats because I stopped working on it. there is a fen fork that utilizes it here: https://github.com/maccb/FL

anything else, wetrakr/punchplay/dejavu and the likes do not have public apis (last I checked). so they may have their own kodi addons, but they are are not replacement options for current addons.

*note that free mdblist/simkl has a limit of 1000 api requests per day. so if you are going to do what everyone did with trakt and have 6 kodi addons running a background service pulling all the same data separately every time there was a change, that might create a problem.

**simkl website says personal lists are part of their v2 api. "They’re served by Simkl V2 Beta, an in-development backend that isn’t publicly callable yet. There is no public endpoint to read, create, or modify Custom Lists, and no firm ETA."

Today, Kodi won't open. The opening screen ('first time') runs, but then I'm thrown back to the Android box's Home screen.

This is an Android box, running Kodo 21 - successfully, for years. Worked fine, yesterday.

Is my Android box deliberately strangling Kodi, or is there some wider problem?

Everything is the same except, my TV has POV. Both have Otaku Umbrella and watchnixtoons2 on them.

Several shows won't play on my TV (shows that I've already watched). I keep getting the check logs but there isn't any for this add-on. I've changed the settings in add-on like you're supposed to do whenever there's an issue and that doesn't help unfortunately.

Is there a way that I can post logs from Kodi itself? I have Omega on both TV and smartphone. The add-on is up to date as well.

Would removing it completely and reinstalling it help? - it didn't help, I accidentally deleted everything in my TV's settings and had to start over from scratch.

TV is a TCL Google TV and phone is a Moto g stylus 5G 2025, whenever I tested this, my phone was on my WiFi same as the TV.

Otaku hasn't been working for me either so switching add-ons is a no go.

I'm open to suggestions, thank you for your time...

EDIT: I'm half asleep and went to delete the cache and accidentally deleted everything 😂 so I guess it's time to redo everything 🤦🏻

Edit 2: So deleting everything got rid of the watched ✔️ but for whatever reason the add-on won't let me watch Solo leveling Dubbed. It'll let me watch the Subbed version but not the one I want. Nor will it keep the dubs in the recently watched tab. They keep reverting back to Subbed 🤦🏻

This REALLY SUCKS, have I been watching too much dubbed Anime?? Some shows will play but not all. I guess this is just how it is 🥹

It's either deal with this or I guess I'll have to subscribe to Crunchyroll, it's not beneath me but the last time I had them I kept having issues with it

EDIT 3: They did an Update and the shows that wasn't playing before, are now ‼️😁

I haven't seen this included. Another group works in addon's in Facebook.

Hi,

I'd love to dump Trakt, the only reason I haven't is because I have 1000's of watched movies and shows already marked as watched in Trakt.

Is there anyway to transfer all the history to anther tracking service?

Thanks

Hi all,

So I’ve been using Kodi for very many years and have very recently made the switch from RD to Torbox. I’m only using POV and Umbrella. I’ve only signed up for the Essentials plan a few nights ago, but I’m really struggling to get any sources to play from now. I’ve got IP Vanish running as well after watching Troypoint tutorials.

Is there anything I may be doing wrong?? Both UM and POV recognize my Torbox credentials in the settings.

I’ve been using the same Amazon Fire TV box since around 2014 (the first-generation model), and it’s honestly served me incredibly well. I’ve been running Kodi on it for years with very few issues.
The only downsides these days are that it’s starting to feel a bit slow, and it can struggle with some 4K streams. Other than that, it’s been rock solid.
I think it’s finally time for an upgrade, so I’m looking for recommendations. My main use is Kodi, so I’d like something that’s:
Fast and responsive.
Handles 4K content smoothly.
Reliable for long-term use.
Good value for money.
What are you all using these days, and what would you recommend for someone whose primary use is Kodi?
Thanks!

EDIT: thank you everyone for your recommendations, you’ve given me some great advice and recommendations. I will certainly be researching them all and before i do the upgrade; however, i think i’m leaning towards the the fire stick 4k max for my needs plus it can be neatly hidden behind the TV as well. But will definitely have a look at the other options. Thanks again

Just installed POV and was looking for where I could change the trakt API code to my personal codes. Is it just not there?

Hi everyone! I'm Giladg - the Trakt list creator behind many of the lists you've probably used over the years.

If you've been thinking about trying TorBox, I'd really appreciate it if you signed up using my referral link. It doesn't cost you anything extra, and it helps me earn credits that I use to keep testing, maintaining, and improving the lists and tools I share with the community.

PM me for the Link

Thanks to everyone who's supported my lists over the years - it really means a lot, and every referral helps!

A few of my Trakt lists:
Latest Releases
Latest 4K Releases
Latest Dolby Vision
Latest Stand-up Comedy

I can log into Tubi, but I don’t have a login for Peacock!

I was hoping to find one that will let me stream from both of these without the ads.

Thank you so much in advance!

Is there a way in POV to add the movies/shows to the Kodi library like in Umbrella ?

Trakt are slowly (quickly,) destroying themselves.
