BREAL Posted March 13, 2015 Author Share Posted March 13, 2015 Update! Got it working!here are a few "gotchas"1) HDMI switch worked flawlessly2) Kodi - You have to enable all the services, then force quit the Kodi app and relaunch it for the JSON API to start working3) I have it programmed when Video source changes in room --> If Source Kodi --> Then --> Launch custom app on FireTV org.xbmc.kodi4) ProfitGot mine working today too! I'm loving it! My programmer figured out how to get it to work with my Apple Time Capsule where all my media is stored. Kodi & Apple Time Capsule now that was challenging, but it works!!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be a new solution rather than those who use Roku's at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus you get the amazing features already built into the Fire TV, the best of both worlds! Highly recommended!!

Would be cool to get a review of the whole solution from a consumers perspective in terms of benefits / features. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wappinghigh Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Idk. Never tried. Do they work in regular kodi?Sent from my XT1060 using TapatalkSure... No problem. Re video processing - it's all about the hardware apparently. There is an issue about what audio is supported on Kodi/Andorid. Though this seems specific to the Android/Kodi setup??... not sure why.. full bluray audio seems to allegedly work fine on Kodi/Linux... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
