Good call @JerryJ you read my mind lol.
But @MarkxG is a Grindhouse build user and he is faithful.
Do you have the Kodi address for EZ maintenance ? I tried to installed it but It keap telling me it was the wrong address .
Yes, I have the ONN 4k pro
Thank you all for the valuable input. I’m also excited to get started. But, still a little nervous. I like my stream venues setup and updates to be easy.
No problem.
Get acquainted with kodi first and you will appreciate a good build. Everyone has there own preferences.
Will do, I plan on taking baby steps. I tried when I frist started streaming back in 2017. But, Kodi was a headache to keep update. I used the Breast build back then. It crashed and I didn’t know how to fix. Then APKs came on the scene and I was hooked. I just love the ease of updating and one click and play streaming.
Oh yeah the Beast build. I never used it but remember hearing about it.
Most Builds should make most movies/tv shows just a click away. Especially is you have trakt set up. Diggz has a trakt menu and all you current shows show up and just click it to continue.
I’ve never liked the Diggz Builds. Too much bloatware IMO but that’s just my preference. I’ve been using the Grindhouse Builds for 6+ years. Same Dev and he is quick to fix any issues and replace non working Addons with others that work
I would agree back in my firestick days that a heavy loaded build could be a problem. But nowadays with an Onn Pro or better there is more than enough space to have it run smoothly with many other additional apps on the device too.
Most of the buttons on Diggz are just placeholders until you click on them and then that will trigger you to install an addon. It looks a lot busier than it actually is.
The default setup isn’t all that large especially if you just install a few of the big add-ons like Fen or Umbrella.
I think that I’ll try one of these Grindhouse builds on my official Troypoint Kodi fork. Any recommendations on which version for someone who’s just interested in Movies and TV shows?
They are all pretty much the same with the same Addons, just different themes, Artwork, skins. I use the Cityscapes Build. Make sure you are using the ones for 21 because I think he still has Build for older versions of KODI as well. Not sure if he added Umbrella but I installed that as well and it’s what I use the most
I have surfshark vpn in south florida cinema hd with RD links not working at all. Beetv not working flixster, flixvision nada!. My subscription with RD expires soon so looking at premiumize but havent heard too much about if it is working .
I haven’t loaded any builds on my firestick in a while I did reset it today installed The Crew, Umbrella, Daddylive, and Elementum which I wanted to check out have used the crew forever always have had good results I use Sports Fire outside of Kodi located in Ohio and using SurfShark VPN hope everyone that celebrated Thanksgiving had a great one!!!
For what it’s worth Premiumize has been working great for me. If you want to test the water you can get a 1 month subscription for fairly cheap. Plus their pay portal is super easy, with Paypal and credit card options. I will say that their User page leaves a lot to desire, tho.
@JerryJ thanks for the suggestion Premiumize just haven’t plulled the trigger yet on anything due to all the craziness going on
Im using the onn box no kodi just surfshark and apk’s - i am really spoiled on real-debrid now frustrated trying to read all these comments for ideas to find a way to get back to reliable streaming again with as little complexity as possible.
RD links not working for me in Syncler or Cinema.
I find it confusing how RD is working for a lot of people. I have RD sub until June 2025. For now I subscribed to Premiumize for 3 months. Some links in there do not work. May take 3 links before I get one that works fine.
RD working in KODI because most of the Addon developers came up with a work around.
