UPDATE: Rapier 7.8.1 is available through the official Kodi repository!
This update is installed automatically.
If this is not the case, you can download it here.
As we are getting closer to the release of Kodi 16 Jarvis, this marks one of the final releases for Kodi 14 Helix.
If you haven't done so already, I strongly encourage you to update to Kodi 15 Isengard or Kodi 16 Jarvis beta!
Fanart backgrounds have been updated with more options (random, recent, in progress and unwatched) and fanart backgrounds have been added for PVR.
A new section has been added to the skin settings: Supported Add-ons. Here you can see the add-ons from the official Kodi add-on repository supported by the skin, and you can download/install or configure all.
The following add-ons are not needed anymore and can be uninstalled:
- script.toolbox
- script.grab.fanart
- script.skin.info.service
Support has been added for the add-on script.skin.helper service instead (should be automatically installed).
