    Kodi v19 is out

    Kodi v19 is out! Keep in mind, we have updated everything to Python 3, so make sure any addons you use have been updated, or they will be marked as incompatible on upgrade.
    Code:
    https://kodi.tv/article/kodi-190-matrix-release
    ... yes, it's here! After several iterations of alpha, beta and RC, Team Kodi is pleased to announce that Kodi 19.0 "Matrix" has just been formally released on all supported platforms. Dare you take the red pill, and find out how deep the rabbit-hole goes?

    Just an FYI, ...
    For users of IPTVXtra2 Video Add-on, as it is compiled now, it will be marked as incompatible.

    *** I will be migrating the addon to Python 3, for use with Kodi v19., but may take up to a month or so.

    The apps are not blocked. They need to be re-written to Python 3 code.
    The problem is the Auto updating, on such a major system change.

    * You should see how many complaints have been posted in the last week or so.
    * fyi..., a couple hundred thousand!

    Kodi 19




    I think most will be walkng away from kodi python3 is to much hassle.
    Kodi is tryin to keep it clean.They are wiping out old dependencies
    on the older versions like their doing here in 17.6 their wiping out the
    sports devil addon and f4mtester on all earlier versions (Why do that) if you install 19
    not much will work on earlier versions now.I would not install 19
    if you think you can still use it see the migration here.
    If you havent got the migration you will.


    Wiping out the sportsdevil addon in 17.6




    This is going to cause a redirection in the hacker community
    the focus is now on media boxes they already have mags/informir
    many of them dont like what they have done to kodi to make them go
    in this direction.


    update
    kodi older versions
    need to back peddle a little on this one although most all addons
    will not work the pvr client is still working as it did before.
    they did get the old shaneys playlist loader but the azn playlist loader is still working on old versions
    dont know if you can add the new script module to the older versions if that would work it would bring back
    php streams like pluto xumo bumblebee stirr watchyour.tv these would auto update but you can stll add them in their m3u8
    form to your playlists

    kodi 19 pvr setup

    pvr setup



    pvr playlist



    link playing



    setup was actually easy. With the new scipt module
    addresses we may be able to get php streams.
    have not tried a epg yet but m sure it works
    no need to input usernames/passwords
    just the m3u


    they need to figure out how to do python2/3
    in all versions that should have been done
    doing it twice is bs...
