Somewhere over the rainbow
I do all 3 cleanups each time I exit kodi, no probs at all David. When you create a build to trim the size down it is advised to delete thumbnails that's where the clutter is and the build runs smoother when adding new content that is. But using the 3 maintenance tools in Ares does nothing but good and a good habit to get into.
What I like about Ares wizard is the traffic lights system, so you can check how full they are getting. Also the fact you can set it up to do it for you or remind you.
As for packages if you clear these you can't revert back to a old version of the add-on.
But if you are going to re-run the wizard always best to clear data in settings.

well this was interesting, for a while i have suspected that using the maintenance tool from tvaddons to clear cache did noting, so i thought i would experiment, i used the tvaddons maintenance and clear cache and rebooted, i then opened the ares wizard and maintenance and when i cleared cache there was 91 files found,
looks like im using ares now for my maintenance

Ares is very good mark, I just use all 3 tools regularly. All running smooth then and gives you piece of mind as nothing else to clean up in kodi. Just watching a few streams leaves traces to clean.

Hi Sean. I have your build installed and noticed today that the likes of Exodus and Velocity are not working. I have Wookie Light installed on Openelec and they working fine. Any suggestions appreciated

Hi Dan I am away until 8th June and have been informed that Evolve has stopped working because of a repo change but nothing about the 2 you mention, just looked on the web to hear if there is any change with those addons but nothing saying they are down. Will be updating build on the 8th and can only suggest to force an update of the 2 addons, system/addons/press the context menu with addon highlighted/update even if they are on the latest version.

If you check the tvaddons forum you can see if there are any compatibility issues between new versions and kodi 15.2 which is the openelec default. Just found this type of issue for ukturk.

Just had a look on tvaddons forum and a few of the members are also having trouble with Velocity, no fix as yet. Cheers for that

Hi guys, i'm still running 15.2 on the Android side of my DroidBOX.. Just done a quick check by starting a few films/shows in each of the above addons.

UK TURK v3, EXODUS and EVOLVE are all working fine, tried 6 films in VELOCITY and none of them worked.. (Wookie build)

I'm running 16.1 on the laptop, I'll check the same addons on that in the morning.

Hi Sean......Hope im not being cheeky here......but i recently added documentaryTube to your build, which is really good.
Is there any chance when you next update to maybe include that addon. I mean everytime you bring out a new build, i do a complete fresh install......therefore i would have to add it again on my 3 boxes (pain in the ass).
Its would not be so bad, but i had to add the repo to get it which takes more time, and i always have to go searching for what repo i need(i can never remember)
This is the repo.......http://repo.husham.com

Kind regards

Not a problem Darren, just added it as a home menu in place of FAVORITES on my iPad and it does look a good addon (let's hope it lasts) will sort some background images for it and get it updated in wookie when home Tuesday/ Wednesday. Will also change Evolve repo to the new addy and have a scan n change any sub menus that have stopped working. Just a few in Kids section stopped for me here on iPad but all the rest working ok (some of Velocity needs a real debris account to work) but will keep it in as a lot of its content still works without one.

Not a problem Darren enjoy, filmon tv I will be adding as a home menu in place of uktv now so hold off updating for tonight as will be changing it later. I could have done with a stable uk tv stream whilst out of the country past couple of weeks hence the coming change. Edit:- FTV throwing up the odd error so will leave until further notice.

Hi Sean, I've just installed your build from wookie wizard as this build stopped working,
Unfortunately I'm having the same issues with your build, ie I go into UK Turk to watch live TVs in particular CI channel (crime and investigation) where I click on link but nothing comes through.
It's probably me as I'm completely new to all this and don't have much idea, please help cheers.
