Both 16 & 17 options were available in the ATV feeds but not sure they still are but the first thing to do would be to uninstall 17:

MENU - PLUGINS - RED - Extensions

See if it still opens and if so make sure it opens as 16. If not then reinstall 16 from the feeds (if available) and it should then be back:

MENU - PLUGINS - GREEN - Extensions

There is no separate ipk that I know of I'm afraid.

Did you do a GUI restart?

Is there a way I can downgrade to Kodi 16.1 as 17 is no good for me I like watching 4K movies and it just will not play them.
I watch fine as above, but if you wanna revert, just go back to old image.

I.e OpenATV 5.3 - OpenVIX 4.2 branch.

I imagine 16.1rc is tsill there in feeds.

mgob No wonder it's not working! :mutley:

No idea why but kodi is not appearing in the ATV feeds for me at all anymore either. Wonder if they've removed it for some reason?

Hard to say as different boxes. different setups.

Best way is try a different image, see how you fair.

I only use it as the normal external player didn't work with 3 certain geo locked addons in Kodi.

Problem I had using exteplayer3 as external player, if that any hvec h.265 format files would just be audio and black screen, so I had self compiled a certain exteplayer3.

But standard one is fine if not using that format currently.
Make sure iptv player installed also.
menu - plugins - download - extensions - iptv player.
menu - plugins - download - system plugins - service app.

restart gui.

Then in TELNET

opkg install gstplayer
opkg install exteplayer3

Only worth using, if using try player with formats that not working etc, but my box is set in service app as exteplayer3 on a personal level.

Try again not with exteplayer.

Have you tried playing the 4k movies direct from local media in iptv player or via media player rather than Kodi?

Image updated to latest version, so Kodi is 17.1.

strange as my box plays it all fine, don't use service app and try again with image updated?
