No sorry, have you added the superrepo this has all the program's and add-ons available on xbmc. Go add source and add http://srp.nu in the top bar and in the bottom give it a name ie: superrepo. Then done go back to install from zip and its should be there, you just need to select the xbmc you are using in. Not sure if plexbmc is there..

I went to google play store and downloaded plex , paid £3 for something can't remember what, in xbmc under programmes > android apps , plex is listed but when i click on it there is no content , been on plex.tv and i have to have a media server ? Thought that might be xbmc but am stuck so now i have downloaded plex onto my mac and am faffing about to see if i can make my mac my media server ? How that helps in getting plex to work on my T8 i haven't a clue. Plex is also in my apps on the T8 home screen but it is empty of content , have to figure out how to get plex to stream to my box ?

It shouldn't be, I've done it recently and it's all there. It's must be done in <add source> when you click that it brings up a box with two things to type in the one at the top has the http in and bottom for the name. Then click ok and go to install from zip...if you go on YouTube there's a video on there showing you. I'm off line as going out with family might be back latter and 2mozz trying out the new wizard, so wish me luck.

Got it all working from your superrepo in the end mate , however let me say " plex " which is what i was trying to dl to my box in the first place , after spending virtually all day on this ,, is imho a load of **** , the content available to watch is so poor its laughable , there are some pirate channels available but you can't dl them to plex because the only two available sites are down. If you want to watch your cousins home videos in your living room fine other than that its doing a fantastic job of boosting the sales if kodi .
