Re-installed and tested on multiple computers. Using the latest 64 bit installer: kodi-20.5-Nexus-x64.

I am able to access https://mirrors.kodi.tv/ in my browser.

However, the link from the log: http://mirrors.kodi.tv/addons/nexus/addo....gz?sha256 times out.

Is it because the program is requesting http://mirros.kodi.tv instead of https?

Should I just try a different version installer?

Is it because the program is requesting http://mirros.kodi.tv instead of https?

Could you test something for me?

Go to C:\Program Files\Kodi\addons\repository.xbmc.org\
Open the addon.xml file
Lines 12-15 change the http to https ... https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/blob/Nexus/...ml#L12-L15
Save and restart Kodi.
Problem fixed?

That works for me, thank you. I'm just trying to think of the best way of getting the word out to millions of users in tens of languages about editing an xml file.

That works for me, thank you.

Great. Thanks for the feedback.
We need to track back to what caused this issue, because it's been working fine until yesterday. Maybe a server has had an update, and maybe we can revert that update.
Hopefully some logs will tell us which mirrors are affected. Trying to get the word out to millions is difficult, so a fix behind the scenes is what we are aiming for at this stage.

"BetterRed". Same BetterRed from Mobileread?

Thanks for the feedback. I can confirm it was working last night as I was playing with the PVR and all of a sudden it wouldn't play (when updating the binaries). I got around it by direct downloading the dependencies from the mirror. Different BetterRed, for me it's a place of birth thing. Small world!

It looks like the good people at Kodi have resolved the issue. Try restarting Kodi and forcing the add-on update.

[wsnipex]

yes, HTTP should work again

[heavyorgan]

Confirmed working on my end

Thanks everyone, you guys rock.
