Installing takes two steps, continue reading for Kodi $release, otherwise see $endpoint_alt for Kodi release#echo ('', 's')[not $kodi_is_legacy]# $release_alt
Step One: Download and install the add-ons project repository
Step Two: Install the add-on from the repository
Step One: Install SickGear Add-on Repository
There are two options for installing the repository. Option two can be done entirely inside Kodi
and is best suited for situations where Kodi is installed on a device with no access to download or copy files.
Option One - Direct download and install for Kodi $release (continue here for $release_alt)
Download the $repo repository file to a local hard drive
Save the downloaded repo zip file to somewhere Kodi has access
In Kodi navigate to "Add-ons" and select "Install from zip file"
If prompted with a security warning about unknown add-ons select the settings button and then enable "Unknown sources"
Using the file selector select the downloaded repo zip
Option Two - Sideload from a source
This is the best and sometimes the only option for standalone devices. This approach requires adding a source
that points to the address where SickGear is running and then using that source to install the repo.
First, set up the source
In Kodi, navigate to the File Manager and select "Add source"
On the "Add file source" dialog select the "Browse" button then select "Add network location..."
On the "Add network location" dialog enter:
