Steps to Install FilmonTV on Kodi 17 Krypton (If Available)

These instructions assume FilmonTV is still available as a repository for Kodi 17. This is unlikely but, if it is, follow these steps:

1. Enable Unknown Sources: Open Kodi and navigate to Settings (the gear icon). Select System Settings, then Add-ons, and finally toggle the option for Unknown sources to ON. You will likely be prompted with a warning message; acknowledge and proceed.

2. Add the FilmonTV Repository (If Available): This step requires knowing the exact repository URL for FilmonTV for Kodi 17. This information may be outdated or unavailable. If you can find a reliable source for the correct URL for Kodi 17, proceed as follows:

   • Go back to the Kodi home screen.
   • Select Settings > File Manager.
   • Choose Add source.
   • Click on <None>.
   • Enter the exact FilmonTV repository URL (obtained from a reliable source).
   • Enter a name for the source (e.g., "FilmonTV Repo").
   • Click OK.

3. Install the FilmonTV Add-on (If Available):

   • Go back to the Kodi home screen.
   • Select Add-ons.
   • Click on the package installer icon (it looks like an open box).
   • Select Install from zip file.
   • Select the source you added earlier (e.g., "FilmonTV Repo").
   • Navigate to the FilmonTV zip file and select it.
   • Wait for the notification that the repository is installed.
   • Select Install from repository.
   • Select the FilmonTV repository (if it appears).
   • Navigate to Video add-ons.
   • Locate and select the FilmonTV add-on.
   • Click Install.

4. Access FilmonTV: Once the installation is complete, you should find FilmonTV in your Kodi video add-ons section.

Important Considerations

• Outdated Software: Using Kodi 17 Krypton significantly increases your risk of encountering compatibility problems and security vulnerabilities. Upgrading to a newer, supported version is strongly recommended.
• Repository Availability: The FilmonTV repository for Kodi 17 may no longer exist. Finding a reliable and functional repository is crucial and difficult for this outdated version.
• Legal Streaming: Always ensure that you are only accessing content legally and ethically.

This guide provides steps based on what was previously possible. The reality is that installing FilmonTV on Kodi 17 Krypton is extremely unlikely to succeed due to the age of the software and likely discontinuation of the add-on. Consider upgrading your Kodi installation to a supported version for a better and safer streaming experience.
