^Dami pa akong nakitang complaints about 17.3.  I'd wait awhile before upgrading.

you should see it during kodi startup, or system information

Hi guys, do you encounter any problems in downloading subtitles as well? When i try to download, it directs me to sign up to Opensubtitles, but when i check it, i have to sign up to a different site prior to signing at Opensubtitles. Is there a work around for this?

FYI a lot of things happening in the add-on world. Needless to say, you might need to find alternate repositories for your favorite add-ons for them to be updated and I've also shifted from trakt to imdb to maintain lists.

When I am having issues connecting or loading, I usually use a VPN. Just not sure if it really works or just coincidence. ;D

I updated to the latest version of kodi, Krypton 17.3. Just notice that the resolution is 1920 x 1080 and you can't change it. While before sa old version, I can toggle it to 3840x2160

^Sa Minix display settings mo, select "4k 60fps", tapos "auto" ung HDR.

Sa Kodi naman, leave as-is if youre using V17.3. Automatic nagcha-change resolution ung Kodi. I have 4k videos and 1080p videos and Kodi would switched to 4k reso if the video native is 4k.

Thanks

Minix is setup as 4k 60fps. My 4k is NOT HDR.

In kodi, greyed out yung setting na video resolution to change to 720 or 1080 or 4k. It's greyed out to 1080p. Before sa old version, I can change it so I'm sure when I play a 4k content, 4k Siya. Now I'm not sure.

Just want to how why is it greyed out.

i think the 17.3 disabled the force 4k option (baka nagkaroon ng issues with forcing 4k display on their menu to non 4k supported display), pero from my experience, once you play a 4k source, the player will automatically play it as 4k.  to confirm this, use the "info" screen on your tv kung its displaying 4k or 1080 while youre playing your source.

ang issue ko naman with kodi is the audio passthrough..  iffy sya with atmos.. .. so i was forced to use SPMC instead. it uses the older kodi version, but more stable sa audio passthrough.

Hi everyone. Noob question: I purchased a new box, so that means I have to reinstall Kodi. But I have already made some (or many) changes sa library ko (movie titles, sets, posters, etc.) dito sa luma kong box. Pupwede bang itransfer ko yung modifications sa local library ko to my new Kodi sa new box ko? Not sure kasi kung ito ba yung "export library" eh. Thanks in advance.

Thanks sir. Successful naman, kaso lang yung new box ko is hindi rooted kaya yung library directory na naka save sa .xml file eh hindi na accessible (or iba na ang address). :(

Quick question

I have 4k demo file stored in a portable hd. When I plug it directly to a 4k tv, it works perfectly fine. When I plug it on my media player minix and play it through movie player, same plays it just fine. 4k resolution and all. But when I play the file using kodi, it shutters and has some buffering problem. And then it just freezes. Anyone experience this?

Another question. I stream movies and TV shows from exodus. It works. But for some streaming app like SUPREMACY, video plays well but no sound.

My guess is that Kodi isn't using the VPU/GPU of your media player / android box. I think one way to test this is to use SPMC. If it works without problems, then that's it.

switch kodi menu from standard to expert, loads of settings there that might help you tell kodi what to turn on or off wrto your graphics option.

did you try changing 4k files? baka kasi may certain decoding if needs and if a mere change of file fixes it , you can start being picky with your files meantime until kodi fixes their end (or the hassle of going “home - native mplayer” muna

i have it working on an iphone and ipad no issues naman. just make sure both kodi and iphone are connected on the same lan.

on kodi 17, go to service settings, control, enable all options there

then on your iphone, click the add host then find kodi, if it doesn't find it automatically then just manually add it.
