Used to be my goto player but unless they change Version 19 then almost all my addons stopped working.

Lol just try and get the youtube plugin working, I dare you. What a garbage piece of software this is. Use Plex if you need to stream things in your house.

Doesnt buffer at all anymore, just stutters along 1 bit at a time making viewing anything streaming impossible. And now that they successfully shut down ALL the plugins, this software is completely useless. Avoid.

Aegis69 should be banned for not being a trump supporter and should be banned from this site forever.

Doesnt buffer worth a crap anymore, instead of pausing and waiting for a cache till fill up, it just stutters along which is useless. Been like this since version 16

A great windows media center alternative! with a lot of features to keep you busy, if you have a tv tuner card it will support that to though the configuration for your tv tuner card can be a little overwhelming , really wish it was a little simpler in that aspect but a great free program give it a try !

Impossible to rate Kodi anything but 5. Fantastic front end to your htpc project. Allows you to configure to your heart's content.

Running this on four U-M8 Android systems. Just about ready to put it On
A coupla 10" Tablets & an Android Fone. I've only got 2 Add-ons Installed.
I make m3u files for Streaming & with some SEO knowledge I must be in the
Region of 100,000 to 200,000 accessible Streams.

It is of Course Streaming, Static & Live. So lots of Glitches with Quality.
In the main tho Excellent. The techy's can Combat Buffering & the like by
Adjustments in the AdvancedSettings.xml...........5*
