Kodi settings that influence VRT NU

Various Kodi settings affect how the VRT NU addon behaves.

Interface improvements (recommended)

Show parent folder items / filelists.showparentdiritems

If you have a remote with a proper Back button, there is no need to have Parent folder items (those .. entries) in your menu listings and the addon looks much better if every screen has fanart and thumbnails. So we suggest you disable this default setting:

Settings » Media » General » Show parent folder items

This setting affects all addons.

Show media flags (Estuary skin) / hide_mediaflags

The addon shows more useful information (like channel flags and aired-date) to media listings if you enable this Estuary skin setting:

Settings » Interface » Skin » Configure skin... » General » Show media flags

This setting affects all addons.

Show "All items" entry / videolibrary.showallitems

Included in v2.0.0

In Kodi one can enable "All items" entries and the VRT NU addon adheres to this setting.

Settings » Interface » Videos » Show "All items" entries

If this is enabled you get an All seasons item in the season overview.

Network-related

Use proxy server / network.usehttpproxy

Included in v1.7.0

If you have a proxy server configured in Kodi, the VRT NU addon will be using this proxy. Read more on the Proxy page.

Internet connection bandwidth limitation / network.bandwidth

Included in v2.0.0

If you have a network bandwidth limit configured in Kodi, the VRT NU addon will select a stream that adheres to your bandwidth requirements. Read more on the Bandwidth page.
