Hello, I have a very slow connection to a large media library in my home. When I'm traveling I would like to use Kodi, but I find that no matter what buffering settings I use I get constant stutters and hangs.

Would it be possible to add an option to entirely download a video before playing it?

Do yourself (and us) a favor, and simply copy of a number of videos from home onto a USB drive/stick/SSD/whatever to take with you. Especially with a slow internet connection, and not to mention the security measures to take into account when retrieving files from your home network.
