KODI has come a long way. Some smart TVs now run Android or XBian, which allows KODI to be installed directly to the TV. That should increase in the future.

And in actuality, the addons (apps) on Kodi don't even really stream illegally. They take streams, aggregate them, and allow the user to connect to already existing streams. But, once again, they're really doing the same thing that you can do via google or any other search engine, so you'd be trying to make a user interface (basically) illegal, because the addons themselves aren't doing anything illegal. The law is being broken by the sources that stream as well as the users who stream, but not by kodi or the addons. In a poor analogy, trying to charge Kodi or addon makers with a crime would be like trying to sue the vehicle (or makers of the vehicle) used for delivering drugs in a drug transaction.

KODI itself goes to great lengths to separate itself from potentially illegal addons.

EDIT: For the love of god people, stay away from the generic android boxes. So many of my the kodi subreddits are clogged with problems with those boxes. I unsubbed from them, it was so annoying. Shield, Nexus, FireTV and Stick should be your only considerations short of a PC. Maybe the Raspberry Pi 2... I love mine, but not if you want netflix and hulu.

Sooooo... new sports add on I've just recently discovered. It's called Pro Sport. Right now it's just for NFL, NHL, and NBA. But the content is incredible. It provides live streams for each, as well as an archive feature that will drop your jaw. Flipping through the archive, they have almost every game for the entire NFL season available for streaming. I didn't check all the links, but all the Chiefs games for the year are working in 720p.
This one's legit guys. Who knows how long it will work like this, because it seems like a lot of work. But it's pretty awesome right now. Here's how to get it. It's a manual process and not widely discussed, but that's a good thing in this case. First, install Fusion in KODI: https://www.tvaddons.ag/fusion-installer-kodi/ Once that's installed, Go to System\Add-ons\Install from zip file. Click on Fusion in the list of options. Click on xbmc-repos. Click on English. Install repository.podgod-1.7.zip. Once installed, click on Install from repository. Select podgod repo. Video add-ons. Click on Pro Sport. Enjoy.

As for Pro Sports addon. Thank god PodGod took it over. The guy who first made it deleted his repo once everyone started asking him to add more leagues to it. It has got to be brutal to be a dev.

Velocity is a pretty nice video add-on.

Interesting topic..
Hey Kodi experts did I screw up by buying a Kodi box off eBay? Chiefsplanet won't let me post a link to the box but all you have to do is search 'Kodi Box' on eBay and you'll see a bunch of them. I bought mine for $42.. If I did screw up any recommendations to what type of box I should get? |

Has anyone tried The Beast? I did a 'clean' install of Isengard and the add-on of The Beast went fine, but it doesn't come up once installed, just an icon to install in add-ons.

I used the Beast for quite a while and it worked ok but with Genesis not working as well I moved on, currently on SpinzTV and it's working pretty good. Look at my post on the second page for how to install, etc. if you want to go that route.
