Good point. If you are not in advanced or expert mode, you will not see this screen.

No have in my version, only mediacodec. I will try to update the firmware.


Thanks.

In settings see on the bottom and change to expert settings. Then you'll see it.

So you are using a wired controller, right? Not wireless?



Doh! Ok, thank you.
Could you be so kind to tell me all the names of the add-ons I missed so I can restore them? Sorry for bother you.

Thank you again.

I am using a wired xbox360 controller.
You want the addons that came preinstalled with the box? I can't remember them. I installed the ones i want to have as with the previous factory installation kodi was 1,3 gb!!! Now it is only 400mb. I use for movies and tv series exodus and specto. For radio tune in radio and for live sport streaming i use sportsdevil. Also installed plexus for live streamings through ace and sopcast.

I saw you were interested in the experience with a wireless controller. I have been using a wireless Xbox 360 Controller with a cheap third party emitter I bought online, and it's been working great since day one, both on menus and games (I use it for Epsxe mostly). Just plugged the emitter and synced it to the controller, that's it. The only catch is that the lights keep flashing non-stop, as if it was continually syncing. But it works perfectly fine otherwise, I just ignore the lights. :P

I don't really understand what more support has been added now, but it's always good to know they're working on improving things.

Hello everybody, I tried to use a kingston 32 GB sd card, class 10, as internal storage but the box can't do that. It gives me an error like "java.util.current.... blah blah blah". I searched online about this error but I couldn't find any solution. I thought the issue regarded the card speed but I'm using now a 8GB class 2...
Have you encountered a similar problem?

1. I plugged a wired xbox360 controller and is working everywhere. Inside menus and also i can play any emulator or game with it. But i think i was using it also before the last update.

2. Sorry mate, you can't do anything. You should have backed up your user data file of kodi. Now you must set it up again.

Hi everybody two questions:
1-I read that last OTA gives xbox 360 controller support. Have some of you tried if it work and how it works?
2-Due sd card problem (used as internal storage) I have unfortunately lost all the video add-ons on Kodi provided in bundle with tv box (you know, those ones with tv series and movies...). Do you know how can I restore them?
Thank you all.

In most cases the cause of problem is "amcodec" accelerator. You should turn off "amcodec" acceleration in Video setting in Kodi. After that problem will be fixed.
All the best!
