Let‘s get started.

Why Add That Source is a Must-Have Kodi Addon

But first, let‘s discuss why the Add That Source addon has earned a place in our list of recommended Kodi addons and repositories.

Quick access to top repositories – Getting Add That Source installed provides instant access to install popular repos like DejaVu, Octopus, Venom, and Narcacist with just a click.

Now let‘s get Add That Source installed on your device!

Step 1: Enable Unknown Sources on Kodi

The first step is to enable the setting that allows you to install third-party addons that aren‘t in the official Kodi repository.

Here‘s how:

  1. Open Kodi on your device.

  2. Click the gear icon in the top left corner to enter the Settings menu.

  3. On the left sidebar, go to System > Add-ons.

  4. Make sure Unknown Sources is switched ON. If not, click to enable it.

  5. When prompted, click Yes to confirm.

This allows you to install Add That Source next.

Step 2: Add the DaButcher Repository

Add That Source is contained within the DaButcher Repository. So first you need to install that repository.

Here are the steps:

  1. From the Settings menu, go to File Manager.

  2. Click Add Source.

  3. Click and enter the following URL:

     http://dabutcher.org/repo
  4. In the box below, enter a name like "DaButcher" and click OK.

  5. Go back to Add-ons in the Settings.

  6. Click Install from zip file.

  7. Select "DaButcher" as the source.

  8. Install the repository.dab-1.3.zip file.

  9. Wait for the "DaButcher Repository Add-on installed" notification.

The repo is now installed! Next you can get Add That Source.

Step 3: Install the Add That Source Addon

With the DaButcher Repository added, installing Add That Source takes just a minute.

  1. Go back to Add-ons in Settings.

  2. This time, choose Install from repository.

  3. Select the DaButcher Repository.

  4. Go to Program add-ons.

  5. Choose Add That Source.

  6. Click Install.

Once you see the "Add That Source Add-on installed" pop-up, you‘re all set!

The addon is now available in the Kodi main menu under Add-ons.

Step 4: Install Your Choice of Repositories

Now the fun part – installing your choice of repositories!

Here‘s how simple it is:

  1. Launch Add That Source from the Kodi home screen.

  2. Browse the list of repositories and click your choice.

  3. Make sure the URL is highlighted and click OK.

  4. Enter any name you want for the source and click OK.

  5. Click OK when prompted that the repository is enabled.

  6. Force close Kodi and relaunch.

  7. Go to Add-ons > Install from zip file.

  8. You‘ll now see the repos you added! Install whichever ones you want.

For great video addons, I recommend Venom, DejaVu, Octopus, and Narcacist. They provide access to tons of movies and shows.

Now you can install addons like The Crew, Ezra, Seren, and more!

How to Use a VPN for Added Security

Whenever installing third-party addons, using a VPN is highly recommended for privacy and security.

A VPN encrypts your traffic and masks your IP address so your internet service provider can‘t see what you‘re accessing. This adds a layer of protection when streaming.

My top choice is Surfshark due to the unlimited device connections and low pricing. The 2 year plan comes out to just $2.21 per month – an incredible deal!

Here are a few other top VPNs to consider:

VPN Pricing Number of Devices
Surfshark $2.21/mo Unlimited
NordVPN $3.29/mo 6
ExpressVPN $8.32/mo 5
IPVanish $2.62/mo 10

I always connect my Firestick and other streaming devices through Surfshark VPN for privacy. Their 30-day money back guarantee lets you try it out risk-free.

Now let‘s cover some common questions about this fantastic repository and addon.
