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
Hey all,
I have had kodi/umbrella on my thinkpad x1 for over a year now and it has ran awesome. All of the sudden, every couple minutes it will start studdering for about 3 seconds then go back to normal. I tried clearing all cache and also re-authroizing with premiumize. No luck. So I just completely nuked kodi and installed from scratch and within 30 seconds of the first show, it started studdering.
The file im currently trying to watch os 1080p, 1.4gb and im on a fiber line that is currently showing 800mb/s so there is no way this file is struggling on the network end.
Any ideas what can suddenly be going on? I grabbed the log after I just received nstalled everything. I closed down kodi right after a studder so I should be able to see something on the log but I dont know what I am looking for. Heres the log:
Any help would be appreciated!
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:
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:
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?
Both are prerelease, so expect rough edges. Bug reports and PRs are welcome.
Been using fen light for a few years but there always seems to be something wrong with it nothing major but in the last couple of weeks it stopped showing trending movies/tv shows. I know theres probably a way to fix it but just wondering if there another add on that I won't have to bother fixing all the time. Edit: thanks everyone I tried both umbrella and redlight. Redlight seems to be the go for me.
Hey all, noob here. Running Kodi Add-ons with Real Debrid, IPVanish. I recently rebooted Kodi to try and rectify, which got Loop to operate proper and allowed searches in Crew and Ghost, but now there's a new problem. Whatever file I choose to stream, it shows the popup of the streams and their corresponding quality levels loading, but before it can finish, its replaced by a pop-up stating "no streams available." No matter what i choose to stream, its the same every time. Im sure its something on my end, but I have no idea where to start. Any insight would be appreciated.
It just isn’t up to par anymore. I use POV for my other streaming needs but I want to keep anime off of my trakt list and keep it to myanimelist to sync from.
