17.5 has just been released so may have just downloaded. What happens if you simply power down your box (remind us what it is) and power up again and retry?

The reason why it doesnt work has been explained. The netflix developers incorporated code to prevent the app running on rooted boxes. You can read why here: https://www.androidpit.com/how-to-download-and-use-netflix-on-a-rooted-smartphone A version installed on a machine prior to the change...

If the issue is that the netflix software developers have developed a newer version of the app that does not work on rooted devices then that will apply to most media players (most android boxes are rooted) apart from the mainstream branded ones (e.g.roku media streamers, fire sticks, most...

Are you saying that you cannot install Netflix from the play store? Or are there some other errors? Can you elaborate? If the former, then as Fritz 69 says, searching for the apk on a mirror apk site maybe the best option but make sure you scan for malware (e.g. with malware bytes). What is...

A factory reset will wipe data. Advice on backup here https://droidboxforums.com/threads/backing-up-kodi-config.4727/ Ps try not to post on multiple threads it just confuses people trying to help and teply to your questions

Salts is not back afaik. But it has been taken over by another dev snd now called death streams. Dandy media from the noobsandnerds repo also worth looking at as is nemesis. You only really need 2 main movie & tv addons (say covenant and elysium) and a couple of back ups like the above. Anything...

Ok. I've done some research. You will need the kodi auto complete for virtual keyboard addon installed. You should find this in the kodi repository under programs. http://kodi.wiki/view/Add-on:AutoCompletion_for_virtual_keyboard Big note..... this only works with certain skins like the default...

Sorry i cant help you further. I don't use builds just the raw addons. So probably get different results. What is auto complete anyway? I just enter some sort of vague search criteria and it gives me a list of stuff, some more relevant than other, to choose from. Does the esc key or back key...

Are you talking about Kodi? Google? An android app like showbox? Give more info and an example of your search criteria and I can try and see if it is normal behaviour.

I checked the x7 spec and it does support ethernet so i would certainly try that. I know it is quite an old machine so it is possible the processor may struggle with higher resolution movies. Make sure you are running the latest version of kodi for your machine. As it is running android 4.4.2...

First two things: 1. Is box connected to your router by ethernet or WiFi? 2. Run a speed test on the box using an app like ookla speedtest from Google play and report back results.

Sorry to see you go @sean99. Enjoy your time out and hope you return soon.

Well you will certainly generate some traffic for those sites @alice131. How much per click? Noted your many posts to many other forums. Remind me, which droidbox do you have? Can we be of any more help?

You might want to browse this guide just to see that you are doing the reset correctly. Ignore the misc error message at any rate. https://droidbox.co.uk/how-to/what-is-the-recovery-menu/

Can't say as I don't use librelec, only android. One thing for sure, it is not your box. Ffwd and all videos controls are software controlled.

Are you talking about Kodi or some other android app? I have checked Kodi 17.4 using the confluence skin, and fast forward works fine. Either by dragging the bar on the pull up on screen context menu or the ffwd button on the same menu.

Working fine here. Version 1.1.22. Tested with latest Pirate of Caribbean film. What were you trying to view?

For mobile users, using the screen lock pin often works. You could mimic this on the droidbox by setting up a screen lock pin in settings and using that but this might be more trouble than it is worth. What did the software support people say? I believe iplayer needs a uk postcode to work now...

If you have buffering the most likely cause is contention on host servers. Second most likely cause is using a poor wifi connection as opposed to hard wired ethernet. What sort of numbers does a speedtest show? Last, the version of kodi you can download, if you want to update, is dependent on...

Latest kodi is 17.4. Latest dbmc is 16.7. It is unlikely to be the kodi version. However if you have out of date or defunct addons then that could be an issue. As a test, why not see if you can download the ares wizard then install one of seans builds appropriate to the kodi version you are...
