Unlike a lot of the other tutorials available with the Fusion addon we’ll need to add a different source in the file manager. Depending on the version of Kodi you’re using the instructions will slightly differ unless you’ve changed the new Kodi skin back to Confluence. If you have then following version 16 and below should be sufficient. You’ll also need to install the F4MTester addon in order to use this plugin. Install that first then follow one of the guides (depending on your version) below.
