The Kodi URLResolver is one of the most important components for streaming. What the plugin does exactly and how it works is explained in the following article.
Attention Kodi users: Your streaming activities can be recorded!
Your internet service provider, government, Kodi Addon developer or even hackers have the possibility to monitor your streaming activities. Therefore you should urgently use a VPN service with Kodi to protect your internet connection and your activities from the eyes of third parties.
KodiGuide is not affiliated with Kodi or the developers of any Kodi add-ons, skins or elements related to Kodi. My contributions are only to show you how easy it is to install these video addons. Responsible for the content of the addons are the respective developers.
What is the Kodi Addon URLResolver?
Almost all available kodi video add-ons require the URLResolver. Since there is a dependency, you have probably never proactively added this add-on to Kodi yourself, but it is already installed automatically by other video add-ons.
What are dependencies in Kodi?
During a Kodi Addon installation you will be asked to confirm additional add-on dependencies during the process. This means that your add-on to be installed is dependent on other add-ons to work. This is called a dependency.
How does the URLResolver work?
Most video add-ons get the information from the same sources, including dizilab, Gvideo, clicknupload or zshare. The URLResolver was programmed to navigate through the pages themselves, request the video files and even solve the captchas automatically. It also decodes the files so that Kodi can finally play them.
Many streaming providers update their service regularly and therefore it can happen that the URLResolver does not work properly anymore. How you can update the Kodi URLResolver yourself, we show in this tutorial.
We hope you found the explanation of the URLResolver helpful and if you have further questions, don’t hesitate to comment. We will answer all questions as soon as possible.
