Hi

I am thinking of getting a Kodi box and have a few questions.

:Do I need to have it plugged into my router or will it work ok through WiFi.

:Can they be used safely by children i.e. if you search for something unrelated porn isn't going to pop up.

:Regarding boxes I have seen this on amazon.

AKASO Q-BOX Smart TV Box Kodi 16.0 Loaded Android 5.1 Lollipop Bluetooth Amlogic S905 Quad Core 64-bit CPU Mali-450 GPU 2GB RAM 16GB Nand Flash 4K/2K Output H.265 HD Video Decoder 1000M LAN Video Playback Streaming Media Player with Remote Control

Any good ?

Hi mizx

Thanks for your reply.

I have installed Kodi on my lap top to get a feel for it I have installed Exudus if that is what you mean by add-ons.

Also the box I noted in my OP doesn't have a keyboard is this a problem for searching.

Hi

I have my box up and working but am having problems sorting a build for it. When adding a source file I keep getting the message"Couldn't retrieve directory information. This could be due to the network not being connected. Would you like to add it anyway?" I have tried Mikes ultimate Kodi build and Dad Life family build but get the same message each time. I have installed Exedus no problem and have been watching movies so the box and internet connection are working fine. Could anyone help me with this thanks.
