Hi, I've bought a Fire TV Stick 4K last week to upgrade my no-smart TV in the kitchen, being able to see streaming contents from Prime Video and Netflix (mainly). I've successfully install on it Kodi 18.5, and it works very well.
One of the best feature of the last version of the stick, is the searching capability accross different apps. So I can search from a title in the home page, and the system is able to scan through different platforms. Currently the "searchable" apps are Prime Video (obviously), Netflix and YouTube. Is there any chance to make also the content of the Kodi library discoverable from the searching mechanism? Or is there already an existing addon that allows it?
Sorry for the english, hope the request would be clear....
thanks in advance
Andrea

Please can you post all your audio/video settings (both on Kodi and FireStick 4K)?.
watching 4k / 4k hdr videos from nas on my system is horrible (buffer every 15/20 seconds)
no problem on nvidia shield
Many Thanks.

That is not video / audio setting related. Please make a network throughput test from Firetv.
You can use kodi's media manager and just copy a file (1 GB) to the internal memory of FireTV.
Don't forget to delete it and check how much bandwidth you get. 4K HDR might be too slow via 100 Mbit/s LAN adapter (< 48 Mbit/s real throughput) and might only work via 5 Ghz Wireless.

Do the test never the less.

It's already on the same version - just the "audiophile" number is missing :-)
