Hi, when you go into the videosection and want to play a compressed or packed mkv-movie the file doesnt show up.
But if you want to play a uncompressed or unpacked file it shows up and works as normal.
All the other versions of Kodi works with compressed files. Why not in Kodi 18?

For v18, you need to install and enable vfs.rar addon, you can find it under addons. (It's a binary addon).
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.
