Gemmill 34503 Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 In the addon installer link her refers to it as Fusion, in which case I think I already use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas Tree 3997 Posted January 6, 2016 Author Share Posted January 6, 2016 CT, i am far from understanding any of this so far but watching the corner of the screen last night, there were loads of 'automatic updates' going on. This box is quad core has loads of RAM, runs 5.1 (latest?) and seem fairly powerful (the version of The Martian i watched last night was really high quality). So first of all, i dont know if the thing updates itself (doesnt seem likely from what i have read in here) but secondly, seems like it can handle loads of programs. Question (and a stupid one) - on sites like this https://seo-michael.co.uk there are step by step guides to installing addons. Does the addon installer app get round this process? Or do you need the addon installer to follow the processes set out on these sites? (that must sound stupid but i've never owned a PC that wasnt controlled by an admin). Secondly, if there are automatic updates to addons, does this get round the problem that CT was talking about. I do tend to the 'less faff the better' side of things. I know this analogy is not perfect but think of Kodi as your computer operating system and the add ons as programs you may put on your PC such as word, outlook, Google etc. A lot of those updates you see going on are updates that effect Kodi (the operating system) and not your add ons such as Genesis. Honestly, it takes 10 minutes to put the beast on and 1 minute to wipe if you don't like it. I guarantee you'll love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas Tree 3997 Posted January 6, 2016 Author Share Posted January 6, 2016 Just add the stuff you need using the guides on that kid's site and keep it a clean setup. "That kid" Who also reccomends the Beast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas Tree 3997 Posted January 6, 2016 Author Share Posted January 6, 2016 that kid just recommends everything Pretty certain when it comes to technology related things you're the last person to listen to for advice Untrue. If you don't want to Fanny on and DIY and watch forums to see who currently has the best sport / movie add ons etc then the Beast is superb.

Christmas Tree 3997 Posted January 6, 2016 Author Share Posted January 6, 2016 it's not, it's just a bloated mess of everything and a load of apps doing the same thing rather than the best ones. I got my setup installed quicker than the beast downloaded and installed not a debate i'm just right, and you've not got a clue as per normal.

Christmas Tree 3997 Posted January 6, 2016 Author Share Posted January 6, 2016 you're* and i'm not, hence why i do what i do, and you spend your time on mumsnet or asking for basic help on here But you're an IT nerd (no offence) so it's obvious which side of the argument you will be on. Easy solution. Chez spends 10 mins installing The Beast, gives verdict. He has nothing to lose but 10 mins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayatollah Hermione 12767 Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 The hallmark of CT asking us for advice, ignoring it, going literally anywhere else and taking their advice as gospel then coming back here and spouting it back off remains true, I see. I got a loaded android box, it was slow as shit. I wiped it, added Kodi and added a select few apps and it runs like a dream. The only way you couldn't see a difference is if you're spending a minute looking at the buttons on the remote and end up missing the constant updating.

That's right SFA I asked for advice in post 1 and sorted it myself in post 2. I even offered you all my advice but oh no, you took the lazy route and came unstuck. Lesson learned I hope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
