Repositories have access to Add-ons and these addons is where you'll see TV content carried
Geniuses is one such add-on
The guide below I had written up for another receiver model, but the steps will be the same or similar (depending on Kodi version).
-First thing is to understand is what a repository is.
Kodi runs addons, different addons have different content. Some addons have movies and TV Shows, some are documentary shows, some are kids shows, some are function programs like the IPTV addons and Ytube and etc....
These addons can be found one at a time online or can find groups of them in these repositories.
-First thing we need is a source list of these repos, and I've listed a few below.
You can install one or many, doesn't matter.
Code:
http://srp.nu
http://upgrades.montrealandroidtv.com
http://kodi.metalkettle.co
http://i.totalxbmc.tv
http://iwillfolo.com/info
http://xfinity.xunitytalk.com
In the tutorial below, when I say 'click on it', I mean to depress the OK button on your T6 remote control.
Okay lets choose a repo to install.
Lets choose kodi.metalkettle.co
Okay next, get the
Kodi Bar onscreen.
Then on that
Kodi Bar, scroll over to
SYSTEMS and then highlight and click on the
File Manager tab.
Next you'll see two pages on this next ROOT screen, A and B.
Them two pages are the same, meaning they share all info entered (that's Linux).
So it doesn't matter which you use
Lets use the A side.
Okay, on the A Root page, scroll down to
Add source and click it.
Next you'll see an
Add Files source menu screen.
Where it says <None>, enter that URL for the metalkettle repo.
Code:
http://kodi.metalkettle.co
Next Enter a name for this repo.
It can be any name you want, it is just for your reference. You'll see on some ytube videos that people will use a dot at the beginning of the name.
The only reason for that dot is so that the name will appear at the top of the list when viewing the list.
You don't need the dot, it's your preference.
I entered .metalkettle
Okay, next hit the OK option on that screen.
The screen should change back to that A and B pages (Root pages). And you should see the name you gave to the metalkettle repo there.
Exit out back to the
Kodi Bar and to
SYSTEMS and to
Settings, click on
Settings. And then in the new menu click on
Add-ons.
Next menu, click on
Install from zip file and find the .metalkettle name in the next menu list.
Click on it.
Then click on repository.metalkettle-1.6.2.zip
Let the process go, don't do anything. It should only take a few seconds.
There should appear a message window at the bottom right of the screen saying Metalkettle is enabled.
Now exit back to
Kodi Bar and click directly on
SYSTEMS.
And now we are gonna install some MetalKettle Add-ons.
In that same SYSTEMS menu, click on
Add-ons and then click on
Get Add-ons.
Then click on the metalkettle repo and then click on
Video Add-ons.
To enable any add-on, click on one or many them to enable.
The enabled ones should now be in the
VIDEO option on the
Kodi Bar.
Click on
Video Add-ons
