Kodi has become the most popular way to stream video content to an android TV box.
Kodi when combined with a good add-on, can stream most any type of videos that can be thought of.
While Kodi can be played on many platforms from a old computer to a Raspberry Pi 3, android TV boxes have become the go to hardware.
Android TV boxes combine fast hardware along with a nice box that fits in with a TV entertainment center.
Installing Kodi into an android box is simple as it is in the Play Store and can be installed like any other app. It also can be downloaded from the main Kodi site and installed.
While installing Kodi itself is easy, most get confused when it is time to install the add-ons which are what let Kodi stream content.
With that in mind below are the steps to installing Kodi 18 Leia and the popular Exodus add-on on your android TV box, the same will go for any android device.
If you have a older version of Kodi such as Krypton it can be updated to Kodi 18 but any installed add-ons may disappear and need set back up.
Of course things can always go wrong with any upgrade so there is no guarantee. Also if you have a very old Kodi box it may be best to stick with the older version depending on the hardware the box has.
Kodi 18 Leia needs Android 5.0 lollipop or higher to install.
To see which version you have go to Settings–>About page.
How to Install Kodi 18 Leia and Exodus on an Android TV Box
Kodi can be installed from the Google Play Store or from the Kodi Site.
Installing from the Play Store is easiest for most but either method will work.

Installing Kodi itself is easy by downloading it and clicking Install.
Installing add-ons such as Exodus is what confuse most.
Below are the steps to install Exodus into Kodi 18 Leia with pictures.
Steps to Setup Unknown Sources in 18 Leia
Kodi 18 Leia needs a box checked called Unknown Sources to install add-ons such as Exodus.
Click the Settings Icon in the top left corner
Settings
Add-ons
Turn ON Unknown Sources
A warning box will come up click Yes
After Unknown Sources have been set to ON, repositories and add-ons can be installed.
The steps are similar to older versions of Kodi with a repository URL needed to be setup and than the add-ons installed.
Below is a step-by-step of Exodus. The same steps can be used to install any add-on by changing the URL to the repository it is in.

- I installed KODI from the command line directly to the SD card. Also recently upgraded the OS (Raspbian) to the latest release running Pixel. It all runs from the Pixel menus. KODI loads and using a thumb drive I can run movies, music or whatever from the thumb drive, download to the SD card oer stream from the Internet.
- Similar to all of the above-mentioned applications you can even download content for offline viewing on Cinema Box HD. DOWNLOAD Cinema Box HD. Last but not the least, we have Kodi. The only reason why Kodi didn’t makeup to the list is the trouble of finding and installing add-ons on Kodi. That said, Kodi has its own advantages as well.

Summary
Installing Kodi to an android box is easy but many have problems understanding how it works.
Kodi and its add-ons are all free so there is a degree of technicality to it.
Android TV boxes with Kodi already installed can be bought but with a few good YouTube videos and tutorials you should be up and running in no time.

How Do You Setup Kodi To Download
Installing Kodi on a Raspberry Pi 3 is an easy enough task with the right tools. It is also one of the more fun and useful projects for the Pi 3.
The Pi 3 is something many can do for a cheap Kodi setup. If you have setup a Pi 2 with Kodi the installation is the same.
There are two main install packages to install Kodi to a RasPi 3, OSMC and OpenELEC.
Which one is used is a preference, OSMC has an installer that make it easier while OpenELEC needs image writing software. There is free image writing software so both are free to download and install.

Below are the steps to install Kodi to a Raspberry Pi 2 or 3 using OSMC or OpenELEC.
Things Needed:
Raspberry Pi 3
HDMI Cable
Power Supply
A controller such as a USB mouse or keyboard.
Compatible Micro SD Card 8GB or Bigger. (32GB Max)
If you already have all the extra components such as a HDMI cable, SD-Card, and power supply, only the RasPi 3 board will be needed.
If you don’t have all the extras a whole kit can be bought.

An SD-Card writer will also be needed to write the Kodi package to the SD-card.

If your computers are like mine and don’t have a Micro-SD Card Writer there are many cheap USB to Micro-SD card writers.
I bought this SD-Card Writer from Amazon which is very low-cost and works good.

How To Install KODI On a Raspberry Pi 2 or 3 Using OSMC
- Download the OSMC Installer program.
- Insert an SD-Card that Kodi will be written to in the SD-card Writer, and run the OSMC Installer
- Select the language to be used and Raspberry Pi 2/3 from the drop down boxes.
- Select the Build version. Choosing the newest Build is best.
- Select the media to write the package to. Here an SD-card is being used but a USB flash drive can also be used.
- There is an option to setup the wireless or use an Ethernet Connection.
- Check the drive the package will be written to is correct and click it.
- Accept the License Agreement
- It will download the package to install
- The OSMC Kodi package will be written to the SD-Card.
- When its done writing the package it will say Congratulations, and the SD-Card is ready to be installed into the Raspberry Pi.
- Insert the SD-Card into the Raspberry Pi
- Plug in the all the cables. The HDMI goes to a TV or Monitor. In this picture an Ethernet cable is plugged in from the router for internet, WiFi can also be used. A way to control it is needed such as an old USB keyboard and mouse.
- It will start the setup and finish the install
- It will ask some basic setup questions such as language and skin. The OSMC Skin can be used or the default Kodi Estuary Skin for a standard Kodi interface.
Using the Installer program is quick and easy, simply download the right installer for the operating system you are using.
For example if your writing the files with a Windows PC download the Windows Installer.
Download the latest OSMC Raspberry Pi Installer and build here https://osmc.tv/download/

How To Install KODI On a Raspberry Pi 3 Using OpenELEC
1…
A Pre-built Kodi Image file is needed to be written to the SD-Card.
Download OpenELEC Image file here. http://openelec.tv/get-openelec
They keep changing the layout of the download page, simply look for Raspberry Pi2 and Raspberry Pi3 Image files. RasPi 2 Builds work fine on the RasPi 3.
2…
After downloading the Image file it needs to be extracted. The file will be in a .GZ file format.
A Window based computer does not come with a built-in way to extract a.GZ file.
WinRAR or similar is needed to extract the file.
WinRAR can be downloaded here. http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
3…
Once the file is unzipped than it is ready to be written to the SD-Card.
I use Win32 Disk Imager to write files if you already have Image writing software then use it.
Here is the download to Win32 Disk Imager. https://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/
Insert your SD-Card into a SD-Card writer slot and open Win32 Disk Imager.
Click the folder icon and point it to were the OpenELEC Image file was extracted.
Be sure the correct drive is selected to write as Win32 Disk Imager will write to what ever it is set to!!
Once everything is set correctly click the write button and Win32 Disk Imager will write the Image file to the SD-Card.
4…
Once the Image is written than the SD-card can be inserted into the Pi 3.
5…
Plug in all the connections to a TV with a mouse, keyboard or other controller.
6…
The first time it boots the WiFi or Ethernet need to be setup. I used the built-in WiFi with good results. Using a Ethernet connection maybe necessary for those in a crowded wireless environment or far from the router.
Summary
The Raspberry Pi 3 works very well with Kodi. The built in WiFi while not the best works well enough and streamed movies fine.
The Pi 3 is a big improvement over the Pi 2. The Pi 2 also will run Kodi but does freeze at times.
To get the most out of Kodi a repository needs to be added which will contain all the popular add-ons.
The install for repository and add-ons will be the same across all hardware platforms including the Raspberry Pi 3.
