Step-by-Step Installation Guide
Ready to install Samsung TV Plus? Here is a step-by-step walkthrough:
Enable Unknown Sources
First, you need to enable "Unknown Sources" in Kodi‘s settings. This allows you to install third-party addons that aren‘t officially approved by Kodi:
- Open Kodi and click on the Settings icon (looks like a gear)
- Go to System > Add-ons
- Enable "Unknown Sources"
- Confirm by selecting Yes on the warning popup
Enabling this option is completely safe and simply gives you more control.
Add the SlyGuy Repository
The Samsung TV Plus Kodi addon is located in the "SlyGuy Repo". So you need to add that repository source to Kodi first:
- Go to Settings > File Manager > Add source
- Enter the source URL exactly as shown: http://k.slyguy.xyz
- Enter a name for the source, such as "SlyGuy"
- Click OK to add the source
Tip: Make sure to type the URL carefully and not miss any characters. This ensures Kodi can find the repository.
Install the SlyGuy Repo
Now that the source is added, you can install the SlyGuy repository from it:
- Go back to the main menu and click on Add-ons
- Select Install from zip file
- Click on the "SlyGuy" source you just added
- Install the "repository.slyguy.zip" file
- Wait for the "SlyGuy Repo Add-on installed" notification
This will install the SlyGuy repository on your Kodi system so you can access the addons within it.
Install the Samsung TV Plus Addon
With the repository installed, you‘re all set to install Samsung TV Plus:
- Go to Install from repository
- Click on the "SlyGuy Repo"
