Hi,

I am running XBMC Gotham 13.2 on Vu+ Solo2 which comes with the Black Hole XBMC Beta 2 off course.

Is it possible to upgrade this to the newer version Kodi Helix 14.1? I have no knowledge whatsoever of Ubuntu.

Hi,
In case somebody wants to try, I managed to update kodi to 15.2 version for PLI image. Tested only on vusolose. Link to test images(no feeds only kodi plugin pre-installed) are at the bottom of the initial post:

@marko861 Sorry to ask here but how can install PVR IPTV Simple Client in this version of kodi
Looks like this plugin is not pure python plugin but also has c sources so has to be compiled for mips in order to work. Is it any good?

Thanks for your great work.

Thanks,

- I'm thinking about adding quick switching between enigma2/kodi without exiting Kodi, that should be doeable.
- fixing alsa support, so at least audio can be played with internal player

I don't know when I will have time to do this since have only one solo which is also shared.

But, Kodi is fully open-source also my modifications to it, so feel free to add to my efforts ;).


Also important note:

Looks like there is issue with starting kodi script, when no hdd is mounted to /media/hdd.

Best would be to post here or in openpli forum if kodi is not working output after running kodi.
i.e:

init 4; time 4; kodi

Thanks for reply and for great works you do
Have to add file with list of channels (even IPTV ) and this plugin play in live tv section. My provider give me the iptv list of channels and I can watch from kodi in any device

Hi, first post, new.

When i try to play a movies in xmbc, nothing happen, even when xbmc show that it play the movie, format is .mkv, over LAN.

I just get a black screen, with tiny icons like forward/pause/play ect.

I have a LG UHD smart tv, and the VU+ Solo 4K box, updated with newest Black Hole image.
