    Ya Piopat had it up and running from from some guy who had it on YouTube with New url , had to follow his ttutorial as in dumping old version with goodbye message first, got it going again then found out that it won't be updated , so can only get up what was there before it shut down is that right or do you know it's being updated ?

    its definately working , but the original guy is not doing the work , and it doesnt have everything back and updated , but it does work and im sure will be back somewhere near what it was some time soon . ive started a tutorial , its about 5 or 6 posts long already i think lol , i just hope its ok with the admin as not strictly satellite tv , but it is in another way .

    newer enigma 2 boxes can now run xbmc so more boxes (certainly e2 boxes ) will be equipped to view channels this way in time , aswell as e2/ android combos , in fact if im remembering right i believe there already are such combos .

    hi paulie have you got to the bottom of the problem you mentioned just above with the movies stopping ? . i know that some movies do stop part of the way through , but from what ive seen its not very often at all , in fact its reasonably rare . but on the mx android if a movie should stick you can use the number 7 button (rewind ) and number 9 button (forward ) to move a stuck movie , what i would say is if a movie gets stuck press 7 to rewind (i think it goes back 10 minutes ) and then play it again and you can still view the movie and not miss anything .

    What firmware have you now is it 4.2 , I think the mxpro comes with that and that seems to work ok , if you want to upgrade , can get new firmware from playstore ?

    jason you dont update addons by doing a software / firmware update , all that will do if anything is update the box firmare not the addons installed in the box .

    to gte updates for addons its important to have the correct repos installed , then you should receive all updates . my tutorial explains pretty much all you need to know .

    genesis addon was taken over by mr know as lambda the guy who made genesis no longer supports it . but lambda gave mr know permission to update genesis . so the genesis addon is now called specto - fork , its got a different name but its the same great addon .

    here is the specto fork repo url

    http://filmkodi.com/repository

    install the repo as normal and then install the specto fork addon from it , and you have genesis back and working .

    exodus by lambda is not the same thing .
