You may get an answer posting that over in kodi section. This thread is more so for the global media box itself.

I mean I can't add any scenes from any of my Kodi addons to the Kodi's favorites.
As far as posting in Kodi section, this is the issue with Global Media box, and not Kodi.

If you hold the okay button it'll give you the drop down menu with add favourites option. It's kodi functionality thus the same regardless of device.

Thanks Munstah, but this Kodi 17.4 Krypton is a different beast.
I'll try it when I get home and get back to you
Cause I tried everything possible, but Global Media box does not give me right click where I used to see Favorites ?! I mean when I press Menu nothing happens, and Back will take me out of the addon and ofcourse pressing Home...will take me all the way back...so there is no button on the remote that will help me add favorites of the scene I would like to add to my fav ?!!

holding okay button in lieu of menu button/right click has been around since XBMC days. There have always been boxes on the market with remotes lacking an actual menu button like nvidia shield.

I have tried everything on this remote, and no button seems to let me add favorites in my Kodi ?!

I don't use the default remote on any of my boxes except my nvidia shield. I just threw some batteries in my global box remote and added a tv show to my favourites list in kodi no problem so not sure what the issue is on your end. The menu button does not work on the remote so holding okay brings up context menu where 'add favourites' option can be found. I also tried on 3 other global boxes just now and all seemed to work just fine.

Thanks Munstah. Could you please tell me what buttons you clicked on your Global media box remote control to get your favorites?
