Amazon Fire Stick and XBMC / KODI help please

[Magic_x_uk]

Hi all, could do with some guidance.

I have had for some years a Computer under the stairs running XBMC / KODI with cables - HDMI through the wall to my main TV in the lounge. I suppose it is a HTPC as media is all it is used for.

I have recently got a Amazon Fire Stick for the bedroom TV.

I have installed KODI on the Fire Stick, but for the life of me. I cannot get Movies / TV Shows etc to show up on it, you know with the 'Box art etc' on it.

I have tried adding 'From Source' etc. But cannot seem to either find my HTPC PC or it just doesnt give me anything to add that wireless network location.

It is of course all wireless.

Can the fire stick do this?
If so, what am i missing or do i need to do something i have missed.

Any help would be great

Many thanks

Have you just installed Kodi with no addon? I installed TVaddons into Kodi, find it really good

I have installed please don't mention addons which have pirated content on the Bedroom Kodi machine which is good.
But my partner is a bit unhappy about one aspect of it which perhaps someone on here can shed some light on if there is a solution.

When for example we search for a TV Show, be it Ally McBeal, start watching an episode, we may not watch it all the way through. When you then go back to it you have to start from the beginning and fast forward.

Is there any way of it being able to remember where you are up to etc.

Thank you


Also any other 'add-ons' I should be interested in.

My apologies for mentioned that add on name. Didn't know it was not allowed. Never gave it a thought. Cheers mods for editing the post etc.
