Apparently there are add-ons that are banned. I am new to configuring standalone Kodi. On my laptop.not through any box or non pc type appliance.
I'm trying to resolve an issue with making a program guide work. Any guide. I don't know the difference between legit and something other than that. Is there a "legit" guide for live TV that can be discussed here? Is this entire subject...live TV... taboo here? Please enlighten me, don't just ban my thread.

The problems arise from the fact that the program guides (EPG) you listed are tied to
piracy (wiki) links and sources.
Because of this connection, members of this site will find themselves reluctant to provide any support for them.
I am sorry.

Wow. I had no idea. So, is there anything that IS legit as far as a "guide"?

In truth, I gave up on those EPGs a while back and learned to use
IPTV Simple Client.
Maybe you can check that thread out, it might be a bit overwhelming at first, but rewarding in the end.

Hey, if that is a legit add on. ..I'll take a look. I wasn't trying to ruffle any feathers, only trying to understand what was occurring on these android tv boxes that seem to be so prevalent . I'm looking for anything that is an alternative to Apple TV. ...just not a fan of that whole machine. I had a western digital play tv, liked the concept,but it can't be updated.
My motivation was/is simply to educate myself.....

Where is a good (safe, legit) place to get this? When installed I get one of two errors.... "dependencies not met" or something about incorrect structure...

I'm still getting dependencies not met....if there was somewhere that would show me WHAT dependencies aren't met, I could attempt to find them, install them, and fix it myself.....

I am assuming you are using Windows.
Maybe the kodi.log might tell you something.
