OpenElec Repo not working

[ctrlz]

Hi

I'm trying to set up my new Venz V3 and the last step is installing the MediaPortal PVR addon for Kodi.  I believe this is in the OpenElec repository.

Unfortunately when I try and access the repo to install the addon, nothing happens when I select it.  In the logs I see "Error getting addons://repository.openelec.tv".  So it doesn't seem to be installed correctly.

Any idea how I can get this working?  Without the addon I won't be able to watch live TV on the box which is basically a deal-breaker.

I am being told this may be because the build of OpenElec on the box is not an official one.  Comments?


Full release info from the box is:

It's not an 'official' build of OpenELEC. Officially OpenELEC only support one Android brand, Wetek, from which they profit financially.

In most cases this won't be a problem though, you can still access Kodi repo and other repos.

The problem here appears to be that MediaPortal is only available in OpenELEC repo. I have reported this to Venz and am waiting for a reply from them. Alternatively, I am looking for a way to install mediaportal outside of openelec repo.

I've replied to your email. If you want to return then no problem.
