Update official add-ons from
Settings level: | Standard |
Description: | When an add-on exists in the official Kodi repository and also in another repository installed on your system (eg a developers beta channel), this setting determines where updates should be installed from. The default download location will always be the Kodi repository. If you prefer to download from the developer's more frequently updated beta channel, then select Any repository to download the newest version from any repository. This is a global setting. |
