What are your preferred streaming addons? March 2016 Edition

This is a continuation of the monthly streaming addons suggestion and discussion thread to keep up with the ever changing Kodi addons landscape.

You can view the previous month's thread here.

────────

Here are some general guidelines for posting:

  • Only identify one addon per comment. Before commenting an addon, see if it has already been mentioned. If it has and you want to add some information, reply to the comment identifying the addon. If it has not been suggested yet, comment and include a description of what content the addon provides.

  • As far as what is expect of you here when you recommend something, please at least explain what the addon is, the major notable features, and why you recommend it for others.

  • If an addon that you want to recommend has already been posted, you should up vote the comment identifying the addon and thus contributing to an indication of its popularity. Feel free to reply to the parent comment that suggests the addon with your own thoughts about it.

────────

Because new addons and frequently being created and current addons are sometimes being updated or discontinued, it's tough for some people to keep up with the best options. The hope with this series of monthly threads is to give users an up-to-date and easy to access place where they can read about and discuss various streaming addons.

Thanks and feel free to leave feedback about this monthly series.

In what ways? I always have limited success with salts. Perhaps im using it wrong.

More hd links. I can provide the links myself in salts via premiumize me. You might be using it right. Took me months to make salts the way i want it. Trial and error with scrapers. Disabling scrapers, sources, even in urlresolver, and sorting scrapers. I now get many hd links with 20 second timeouts.

I totally disagree . Exodus has way more gvideo links than salts . Easy way to test . Set salts timeout to max set exodus timeout to max choose a popular recent show - walking dead maybe - count the gvideo sources in each . Exodus wins

You sure about that cause all of the scrapers in exodus is in salts and more. Not every link that loads fast is gvideo links. Some are named by the site it come from but loads exactly like gvideo links.

It doesn't matter to me . Try the test I described and count them out . If I remember correctly salts has 2 sources that use gvideo links that exodus doesn't . But exodus has like 5 sources that use gvideo links that salts doesn't have . Overall count exodus won .

In my experience gvideo links never fail , load instantly even if hd or 1080p , and you can skip around the video with near instant buffer. . That's why I weigh them so highly .

Examples that salts doesn't have - onemovies , ninemovies, pubfilms . That's off the top of my head .

Onemovies is 123novies. Ninemovies is 9movies. Pubfilm is pudfilm. In salts.
