Kodi & Addons Loading links/Not Playing

Hmmm, you must have missed something because Troy’s instructions for Umbrella with coco scrapers and RD are spot on as I’ve used them to install Umbrella several times. If you go into the Umbrella settings, then to the debrid area are you seeing your RD account info?

Hi. So, I installed the add-on on the TV upstairs -all worked. Went to reinstall on the downstairs TV, but found that Fen was suddenly working! Have no idea why/how it happened, but all fixed now. Thanks to you both for your contributions :slightly_smiling_face:

It is odd with Fen. All my results came back uncached, then I scraped ignoring all filters and boom, there are the cached results… I’ve done everything as suggested above. It kind of works when it wants, which is super annoying. I think there maybe a glitch in the matrix. Running on a year old Firestick… We all know Amazon is a pain with it’s updates… who knows what they do!

I have Fen installed on both my Onn 4k device and the Onn 4k Pro and its working great. Are getting daily updates for two weeks straight, but when installed, does nothing. So I’m not sure what’s the do about that.

Would you be able to tell me where to get the 7of9 repo address so I can install the Account Manager so I can synch my RD and Tract with all my addons?

It comes pre-installed on the build I use but i was able to find the url online. It should be in this repo.

I really have no idea if there is any type of set up after you download it.

@Patachou @JPM69 no idea if this is the case but I believe Account Manager is Build specific meaning some builds use it some don’t. If you have a bunch of individual addons not sure if using Account Manager will work with them as i think it functions at the Build level. But I guess we will find out. Just a thought

Mine seems to be ok :crossed_fingers: its just a bog standard Firestick. However I did do a factory reset… bit of a pain if you have a lot of stuff on there. I just use mine for Kodi. Touch wood, so far, so good. Other addons work ok, I just like the way Fen works with RD (well almost anyway); good luck pal and keep me updated, I’ll drop in if something happens.
P.s it is worth noting that Fen was, and is running on the same update before and after the factory reset…

Haha, sorry for the late reply I have only just become a member and had to wait 24hrs…

Right, after all that and now being 24hrs on, Fen has updated to .90 and is back to doing what it wants (hope the developer sees this), I scrap a film and nothing comes back, then I scrape again ignoring filters and boom, a tonne of cached links. I haven’t changed anything since last evening, check, double checked, triple checked settings. Cleared RD history, reset router, cleared cache etc etc… and still the problem is there. Sometimes it will work in auto, then it won’t… its up and down like a yoyo

I will try rolling back and see if that works

I get same problems, even with the crew. Shows over 60 -70 total sites found but almost always gives me the message: No providers to download from or non available :worried: I use surfshark vpn ancd my RD is good thru January 2025. Very frustrating

Pincer2014, keep in mind that the Fen developer has pretty much quit doing much of anything with Fen (and I’m very sad about that as it’s been my favorite several years now). So I wouldn’t expect too much of from it these days. Although I am still using it as a first choice. He has basically passed the baton over to Fenlite and aFENity which are clones of Fen and use Coco Scrapers. I didn’t notice, but are you using Real Debrid or another premium service?

There is a lot of excitement over the Umbrella addon which seem to be taking the number 1 spot in the Kodi addons sphere here on the Insider. Troy just produced a new tutorial on the Umberella installation. And Jayhawks gave it BIG thumbs up in current thread. You might want to check his thread.

And Pincer2014 welcome to the Insider!!!

Ive noticed that you cant download Kodi from your firestick for some reason.
Go to troypoint toolbox and download it from there. On downloader

Hello JerryJ, thank you for your advice and reply. Ok, so I have completely reset everything, I’m running FenLite .91 and linked my R-D account and all is back up and running perfectly, has been for a couple of days now. I have dedicated the firestick to Kodi only. Stopped all updates and deleted all apps, stopped the firestick from tracking apps etc. fingers crossed, if not then I will use umbrella… many thanks Paul

Hello @Miki, thank you. All is quiet here with the Fen .92, running smoothly now since the update. I’m getting all the cached links through R-D. Just a process of elimination in the end. FYI running a 2yo FireStick lite, with Kodi 21.1, hope this helps anyone who had the uncached issues :+1:

Hello all.
It looks like I am having similar issues as above.
I’m running Kodi 20.1 and The Crew 2.0.6. At this time I am not using a VPN.
I’ve been digging through posts about Real-Debrid problems but not finding my symptom.
This started just today and it’s happening the same on both of my Firestick 4Ks. When I select a movie to watch, I only get one line of streams, not the usual Paid & Free lines. And I only get zero’s. I did a restart on both devices.

I just renewed my Real-Debrid last week, so it is current. I did confirm the expiration date is next year. When I attempt to reauthorize my account, I don’t get the screen with the code, it just goes back to the previous page. This happens whether I do it in The Crew or from Kodi.

I followed instructions by Jayhawk659 from back in June, but no luck. This included clearing the cache and confirming ResolveURL is updated. I also went through and disabled all of the resolvers other than Real-Debrid (though checking a couple minutes later found all of them enabled again !?)

I also installed Umbrella add-on to see if anything was different there. Same symptom.

Are you using kodi 20.1 or did you mean 21.1?

Oops typo. 21.1.
I just uninstalled Kodi to start from scratch. :crossed_fingers:t3:

Ok. Good luck. I tested The Crew again and it worked fine with RD results. I don’t see free results anymore.

Same symptoms with a fresh Kodi & Crew. When I click ‘(Re)Authorise My Account ‘ the previous page comes back. (This also sucks since I just paid for 6 monthes of Real-Debrid.)
I wonder if it’s my ISP since this is happening on both of my Firesticks. Is this what I get for not having a VPN?
