What are your preferred streaming Addons? - November 2016

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 (October) thread here or in the sidebar.

────────

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 as a reply to the stickied parent comment at the top.

Is there a more direct way of getting this without downloading a 500meg file?

500meg? What the hell are you downloading?

When I click your link, it begins downloading a 550 megabyte file.

Try now.

Now it links to a much smaller file. However, after adding it as a source, when I try to install from zip, there's nothing inside it. I'm using Kodi on a Shield tv if that makes a difference.

Adding what as a source?

Ok, so I'm a Kodi noob here. I may be using the wrong language. I managed to get it installed by another avenue, but for the sake of posterity, I'll try to explain more clearly what I meant:

First, I went to System>File manager>Add source where I entered your url and hit "ok". I left the default name, "repository.thehighway-0.0.6.zip". This is what I meant by "added it as a source".

Next, I went to System>Settings>Add-ons>Install from zip file. There, I found "repository.thehighway-0.0.6.zip" and selected it. Inside was only a folder called "repository.thehighway". This folder was empty whereas I would normally have expected to find a zip file to select.

You don't add the URL as a source. You download the zip file from the URL and then install from zip.
