Install NTV Kodi XBMC Plugin Screenshot Guide

ntv-kodi-logoNTV becomes an excellent experience when you use it with Kodi XBMC, a free media center for all operating systems. Kodi, previously XBMC, has a plug in system which allows you to install virtually any add on for use with IPTV. The friendly developers at Xunity have created a Kodi plugin for use with the IPTV service NTV. I have shown screenshots of the plugin in my NTV Review and now I show you how to install it in under 5 minutes.

You can now use the Repository to support NTV plugin autoupdates with this guide.

Install NTV Kodi XBMC Plugin

Make sure you create a free NTV account before attempting this guide

Download the NTV plugin zip file (updated working July 2017) or use Krogsbell's if you want recording. Place the zip in a location you are able to find within Kodi XBMC. If you plan to integrate NTV with FTV or TV Guide you will need the NTV plugin and not the Krogsbell version. You can however run the NTV Plugin and Krogsbell's side by side.

Mac users should use Google Chrome to avoid Safari automatically unpacking the zip file.

Tip if you are on and Android box – use FTP with this guide.
