Channels number not showing in bottom left if screen when entered manually. Using slyk1hd skin. Can anyone confirm same issue with a different skin?
While in the channel list press menu then settings & you should see the option to enable them.

Turns out it was when having "show picons in quickzap" enabled, it wouldn't show the numbers. Disabling sorted it

Well done ten, great image. Got everything working for me, as well as my local card in the ci. So next step will be multiboot. If i can get that running for me as well, then there is nothing in the way for bu images from me.

hi, great image. i seem to have 2 minor problems, playing favorite videos in tsmedia youtube results in them ending before the end-no common time to end and if you fast forward say a minute at the start , they play to the end. ive uninstalled ts and reinstalled and updated .
second is odd, even my 12 year old daughter noticed it , the picture quality isnt as good on any setting either using autoresolution or not, any ideas?

Video mode is set as 720p on all backups to make sure everyone can use it but other than that nothing has been changed but can say i did not notice any difference here, i have not tried tsmedia on this image but somebody else probably has so posting this issue in plugins support section will increase your chances on a reply regarding that.

I need to spank myself as I have a bad habit of always setting mine to 1080. blush

Hi, great image, is it possible to have the channel name on the box LCD? I have spent time looking but for the life of me I can't see how to do it.

Cheers

Last time I looked the Solo2 didn't have an LCD. Did you fit one yourself? :mutley:

Great work Ten, very stable build been using for a week. However I have found that Kodi 17.0 performance is poor. Once film addons SALTS + Exodus etc have been installed is slower than asthmatic turtle to run searches for films.

Takes forever for films links to be searched compared to my android phone running the same addons/pluggins.

I knew it wouldn't be as quick as a dedicated Android box but the load times are painful.. Am I doing something wrong???

I have Vu+ Solo2 was tempted to buy Mutant hd51 4k etc later this year perhaps this will solve this issue.

I have decided to use TS media and IPTV apps instead. Big warning to users is that before you use this version of Kodi your hard drive must be free of older Kodi apps before first time its used as it will loop and not start.

Many thanks team for all the good work.

You can still install the kodi 16.1 version from the feeds but an updated build with kodi 17.0 rc4 has been tested over the weekend & should be posted today, instead of deleting old kodi apps i would suggest just renaming the .kodi folder on your hdd so it can easily be restored if you want to go back to 16.1. I did not have such problems but also had very few apps installed as tend to stick to my Amazon box for kodi.

Sorry Ten what do I have to rename the kodi folder to if want to use 16.1 ? My other question is have you tested the performance of new 17. R 4 with SALTS and Exodus etc? Is it any quicker than 17 R 1 ? Many thanks Eldon

Rename to anything you like then change back to .kodi when you need to use it, not tested with those myself yet will have a bash this week when the mrs is out.

Great image but my first time with KODI so lost. When I try to install addon installer, I try to load fusion, I go to file manager etc and then when I go back to settings for add on it does nothing! I was expecting to see the word INSTALL FROM ZIP file but nothing happens!!

Using solo2 with a HDD . I have not installed kodi on hdd I just click on kodi launcher.
