CollyWolly Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Check the sound in kodi itself sometimes that needs turned up. When playing a movie or whatever press select to bring up the menu that has the play, pause, skip etc go along to the sound option and make sure the volume is turned up. Then boost the sound if need be too. i mute my android box through the remote all time without meaning to. takes me hours to work out what i did and fix it.

XB52 Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 I know I keep banging on about this build, but it's great imo. get the sportsmania build from bigsam.org, then once you've installed you just type in your username and password and JOY Regarding the bigsam stuff, I had a look at the video on installing it on Kodi and it seemed to say it would replace everything you already had; is that right?

They're made up of all the developers from openelec minus the original one - they left because of disagreements over the direction, including the open ended commercial tie up with wetek.

I've never done it on Mac myself however I'd expect it's as easy as other OS. Try following this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9D9jS1hw-6c Then install some addons such as Exodus https://seo-michael.co.uk/how-to-install-exodus-for-kodi/ And SALTS https://seo-michael.co.uk/how-to-install-salts-stream-all-the-sources-for-xbmc-kodi/ Obviously there are tons of others however these will get you started.

chester copperpot Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I think it was Jack dee and coke who recommended bigsam for me and it has been brilliant. Much much easier for me. I paid 60 for the fire tv box and 26 quid for SM and its been paid for already in just a couple of weeks. I ****ing love the SM stuff but my advice would be to get a box which supports HD stuff. I changed boxes after getting annoyed because I couldnt get HD stuff and the results are night an day. Very rarely get problems with SM now!

muldoon74 Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I'm sure it's probably been covered but at 93 pages I've not got the energy to trawl through and find out so... If I wanted to record from Kodi (legalities aside) how would I go about it? The wife and I like to have a lot of stuff saved for instant access on our planner and this is a major reason for sticking with sky for so long however sky are pricing themselves well out of our range now, it's just not worth the money anymore..
