Yes, installed as per Troys video. It shows in the repository but there is no zip when I click on it. I’ve downloaded lots of add-ons and never had this issue before. Kodi 21

MarkxG - yes did it 3 separate times

Yes just checked now (Thursday 10:30 am CST). I selected Apocalypse Z (I had never tried that one) and I got 85 found 6 4k, about 35 1080, and the rest 720. All the 4k and 1080 were RD links. 4 of the 6k links worked great, 2 came up error permission denied or account locked, and the rest worked.

Do those links actually play?

My bad I don’t use cinema anymore, I just assumed that fen light and umbrella were the only ones that I have that still work with RD. I’ll will load and test cinema!! :grin:

You are confusing me with what you are saying.

  1. You added the source using the url under File Manager
  2. You named it “umbrella” or whatever you wanted.
  3. You go to Addons and select Install from Zip.
  4. You select the file name you just made. Is that showing? If so, you should see the Umbrella zip file here.
  5. Select the zip file and you should see Umbrella Repository Installed in upper right of screen
  6. Go back and select Install From Repository
  7. Select Umbrella Repository
  8. Select Video Addons
  9. Select Umbrella
  10. Select Install
  11. Select ok
  12. You should see it installing
  13. You should then have the addon

I just tested and it is working as i explained.

I tested and you are right!! Odd thing though is I also authorized premium.me and I only see RD links.

there were 6 4k links. 4 of the 6 played (I didn’t watch the entire movie of course, just made sure they started and were really the movie); the other 2 gave permission errors.

I tried 5 or 6 of the 1080 links and they were all fine.

Whenever I try to see if things are working correctly, I always choose a movie or TV show that I have never tried before, in case previously opened links get stored in cache or something. I’m not smart enough to figure out how that all works.

You would still have to enable cocoscrapers for Umbrella as Troy explains in his install video…Both Umbrella and FenLite must have cocoscrapers enabled under “providers”…

Of course, but the issue was finding the zip file and installing the addon. Cant use Cocoscrappers if you dont have the addon.

Maybe I’ve had too much eggnog (j/k) but I’m trying to wrap head around this. “Fair-Use System”. My thinking is that this is a way to limit the over-users?

The Fair-Use System

Every premium account starts out 1000 points that can be used over all of our services. Every night at midnight (UTC time zone) you get a top-up of 30 points.

Some services have a factor. A factor of 2 means, that 1 GB traffic costs 2 points. You can find the list of services and factors here.

You can purchase booster points to increase your points for more downloads or storage here.

Your point balance: 996.60

…what’s wrong with too much egg nog?

Costco sells good egg nog. :milk_glass:

So, am I correct in assuming that 1000 pts in the Fair-use system is so that usage by data hogs is controlled? It seems that is what they are trying to control.

I love eggnog but have pretty much cut almost all of the stuff that make eggnog even better. :crazy_face:

So there’s two motives here.

  • Yes, usage control. Plants a seed so that usage/congestion on server is controlled. Traffic is metered by streaming, downloads to cloud, and certain actions that are at a multiplier rate.
  • More likely, is their effort to up sell points in the form of purchase of “booster packages”.

Thank you mthr1! I do appreciate the clarification.

Now I’m just trying to figure if I should be concerned with watching the numbers. I don’t think that I would ever get to the point of only streaming and having to buy more points. But it will still be on my mind.

I will surely miss RD. The price was nice and it always seemed as though it functioned well, plus the bonus points. But the latest payment method just absolutely sux. I’ve never had a need or desire to use Bitcoin.

Can I use Premiumize & Alldebrid at the same time? Thank you

I have been using Real Debrid and Premiumize at the same time. So I’m not certain about PM and Alldebrid, though.

Yes, no problem, in fact you can also do RD at the same time as well if youre getting links from them still?

I have been using the service for a week. I watch my series every night and occasionally a good movie when I can find one. I have yet to have less than 1000 points the next day. My cloud storage does build up a bit, even though I never download anything. I will have to research how to clear that storage as I don’t need it. Got it. Went to my account online. Went to hamburger, top right, “my files” and deleted them. I think the “fair use” is just that and designed to prevent someone from downloading a huge amount of vids, just my guess as for me I rarely drop below 1000 points when I check every morning.

I think if you’re a pretty typical user/streamer you would likely never approach the floor of your fair use allowance.

If you’re a heavy streamer, pull large 50-75gb streams, and watch multiple movies as such every day - then you may be consuming more than your supply.

If so, then you may either:

  • Buy an addon point booster package (see cost below).
  • Diversify your streaming duties between PM and RD working sources, like Kodi (assuming you have RD still).
  • Find other leisure gap fill hobbies - aside from streaming to lessen your demand. :yum:
