Thanks for that, do you have one yourself? It just seems impossible to find a definitive answer anywhere about what you'd think would be a major feature of this thing! :smiley:

I uninstalled Pulse because of the popups at every start.Try it first then see what apps work and make a note of them.Then do a fresh start and install only the working addons.

Not really. Buy a box from nosubtv ( Facebook it ) much better than fire sticks and updated build

Rubbish. Kodi is as good as ever. It's the rubbish free add-ons that are done. About time too

Are these any good as a plex client with newer audio technologies? I take it they wouldn't pass atmos for example.

No no Pulse is a build it saves you time adding each addon and puts loads on for you. You might only use a handful so might be easier to add them one by one.
Exodus was the nee Genesis, but its pretty dead now, the latest is Covenant which works great. I keep meaning to get a vide up on my YouTube channel showing people

All you need is Kodi with Pulse build installed and it'll be the best thirty five quid you've spent

Is Pulse just Exodus re-skinned? Haven't updated/checked out plugins in about a year!

Just wondering, does anyone who has this know if the voice search now works with iPlayer, All4 etc.? I read it wasn't before but that there were plans to do so... Thinking of getting one for an aged relative but it'll only be of any use if she can just press a button, say "play Poldark" and not have to do anything else! Thanks in advance.

It will search Prime and Netflix, not sure if it searches others. One alternative may be Plex, you can search and control that with voice. I should say others can do that , never seems to work for me.

Bought this new Stick on Prime Day much faster than the dual core.
Any recommended links for installing Kodi for a newbie?

Pretty good! The new stick is so much faster than the older one.
Worth noting you can get the 4k version for £69 with the other coupon!!
I know me and the Mrs will be GOT'ing and chilling tomorrow night (next day click and collect)

None, they are all the same just loaded with useless free add-ons that are never reliable.

No. Although that is what Sky would love you to believe.
