Kodi is a great piece of software and any amount of praise can be less for this free media player. With so many addons to use and powerful features to enjoy, it is a piece of art. You can mod it, customize it with any kind of addon to enable it to do so much. There are builds in Kodi with their own set of skins and addon, which make it all the more enjoyable to use and stream on. But, like any other software tool, it has its limitations. It can throw around errors because so much modifying from external sources as well as official can lead to errors. It is only inevitable that it has errors because of the number of features it offers just with a couple of installations. But, what if it loses out on its main function? Its main function is to stream content and it is useless if it can’t even do that! Sometimes it can throw this error of “No Stream Available”. This can be because of both external and internal factors.

Let us have a look at the reasons and the fixes behind this kind of error. You may have installed an addon and it might have sprung up this error and now it doesn’t seem to work even after removing that error? Let’s see what we can do to fix this issue. Some basic reasons for this error might be that the add-on might have been outdated and no longer streaming content from the backend. The “No Stream Available Error” usually shows up when there is no content to stream from the backend. Your movie or TV show might not have the link which is streaming. It can be one of several reasons. Let us have a look at some of the best way to fix this issue: #1 Using Outdated or Abandoned Addons Using old Kodi Add-ons is a good practice to get the best content. But, all old things eventually perish and become unusable. This is especially the case in software and internet. Links and platforms are constantly updated leaving the previous ones unusable and we eventually have to update to get things running again. Kodi has the same principle and is no different. If you’re the person who has been using Exodus and Genesis add-ons, you are in the dark. This is because both of these add-ons have been updated with different names. Covenant has replaced Exodus. There is the necessity of constant forking and cloning of add-ons because of copyright infringements. One addon goes down after another because they all stream content for free. So, your first step to combat the error should fix this step. Check out, All new Best Kodi Addons to get continues streaming content. #2 Clearing Cache and Providers in Addon menu Occasionally, your mobile / device local storage can be the problem because of file corruption or mix up. Because of this, you get the “No Stream Available” error while using Kodi. Go to the Kodi addon you’re using and select “Clear Cache” option. You can do this better with the “Indigo” extension available on the Kodi Add-on store. It is available to download from the Kodi Israel repository. After installing, use the “Clear cache” option to eliminate the problem of “No Stream Available” on your Kodi. In case it is still there, let’s have a look at some of the other options available for troubleshooting. #3 ISP speed limitations: Because Kodi addon developers use a lot of free links, your Internet Service Provider might be limiting the speed. Your ISP might be blocking speed and access to some location-based and content based links. Irrespective of your internet speed, in such cases you won’t be able to access that content without countermeasures. To eliminate this issue, use a good VPN which lets you route around the ISP or country’s internet limitations. we always recommend our users to use ExpressVPN while streaming on Kodi and other similar apps. Legal Notice: We (firestickapps.com) are strongly against content piracy, and we implore our readers to avoid it by all means. WARNING! Read before you proceed... Before you start streaming on your FireStick device, you should consider using a strong VPN service. This is because it is very hard to determine copyrighted content from illegal ones which could lead to prosecution for violation. We don’t verify the legality of Addons, Apps or developers. ISPs can track all online activities and see what you are streaming. Hide Your current IP address 18.97.14.84 with a VPN and stay anonymous. I strongly recommend ExpressVPN which is safe, fast and highly secure. You can easily install this VPN on your FireStick device and enjoy your streams in peace without fear of ISPs and governments. ExpressVPN offers 49% off and 3 months extra on annual plans. With a 30-day money-back guarantee, You can always get your money back if you don’t like their services. #4 Kodi Troubleshooting Sometimes, the case of “No Stream Available” can mean that something wrong has gone internally in Kodi. Because of installing addons and customizing constantly with one addon after another can mean trouble for Kodi. Such a thing can mean that you also get all other kinds of errors with the “No Stream Available Error”. As mentioned above, errors start popping up when one addon’s installation files conflict with the functions of another installed add-on. Your Kodi application might not even start. Use the factory-reset option and wipe off all the installed addons. You can also install Kodi Leia 18.9 and have a fresh start. #5 Using Different sources Your Kodi add-on sources are also components that could result in “No Stream Available” error. Your favorite installed add-on might be showing you a whole array of links to watch from. Some links might be showing the error and some might not be because there might not be any content on the backend. In case several/all sources are showing this error, check if all addons are throwing up this error. It could mean that your add-on might be the issue instead of Kodi. In this case, uninstall the add-on and even Kodi and try reinstalling. ‘Beast’ is one such build where you will avoid all such installation and addon errors. #6 Internet Speed Matters Internet speed is majorly the problem in this scenario. This is because some addons use high-quality streaming content and your internet speed might not be supporting it. Because of this also, you may be getting a “No Stream Available” error. You need to have a strong internet connection to be able to stream videos from the internet in the first place. A minimum of 10 MBPS connection is required to be able to stream 720p or 1080p connection. In the case of 4K streaming, this is even more. Investing in a Wi-Fi repeater can help eliminate the issue in case the internet speed is enough but distance from the router is more. Use the Speedtest connection test if you’re using 4G or cellular. #7 Using Auto-play Using Autoplay feature on several add-ons means they’re going to be using the best high-quality link in the first place. Now, this isn’t an issue, but it means sometimes this overused link might be broken on the backend. As mentioned above, the “No Stream Available” error can be thrown if the link won’t stream content from the backend. To fix this, you can turn off auto-play from the add-on menu. Another way would be to select the menu button after clicking on the episode/movie link. Then select ‘play using’ from the links that show up. #8 Issue with Real-Debrid Sometimes, no matter what you do or remove or reinstall, the “No Stream Available” error won’t go away. It could mean that the associated “Real-Debrid” account subscription might be expired. To check this, head over to your Real Debrid menu and check if the subscription is still active. If not, renewing it would be the best way to go ahead. Sometimes updates can lead to deactivation of Real Debrid links. Your Real Debrid account might be locked out as well. Go to Settings and authorize the Real-Debrid account access to your Kodi. #9 Cache Settings Kodi also controls how fast or how much your cache data has to be stored. Cache is the metadata or additional info your device and application stores do not have to download it every time you use something. Altering the settings in backend file (advancedsettings.xml) that controls this is another option. Now you shouldn’t go around messing with such things on your own. It is best to look up how to alter it to change its behavior. If you’re not a technical person, it is best to avoid this way. #10 Device Settings If your Kodi device is getting outdated it might not support streaming content. Usually, this is mentioned in the updates to Kodi on your device in update notes. Your system’s slowness or RAM issues might be preventing streaming in the first place at high speed or good quality. So, go for new Kodi boxes or devices to view content on Kodi. #11 Filtering Another case is the censorship/limitations on your device. In some cases, filters like parental controls, or content filters might be preventing streaming leading to the “No Stream Available” error. In such a case, it is best to either turn off the filter or add an exception for the application in it. # Exodus Redux “No Stream Available” Error Exodus is one of the most used and popular addons in the Kodi store. You can stream any number of high-quality movies and TV shows by installing the Exodus Redux addon. In case of getting the irritating “No Stream Available” error, use the steps below to eliminate this error: (You can use this fix on Yoda, Magic Dragon or any other addon you are using) #1 Clearing Cache and Providers Go to Exodus Redux addon in the Kodi player Select the “Tools” tab in the menu Select the “Exodus Redux: Clear providers” option in the menu that pops up. Click Yes to confirm the action Now select “Exodus Redux: Clear Cache” and Click Yes to confirm the action #2 Changing Set Providers Timeout Launch the Exodus Redux addon Go to the “Tools” option in the menu. Select Settings and then “General” option Now, you need to alter the following option: “Providers Timeout” to 20-30. Note that you must do exactly what is mentioned. # Covenant “No Stream Available” Error Covenant was launched by Kodi developers when Exodus had to be taken down. It has almost the same features as the Exodus platform with a couple of exciting little features. You can resume and pick up exactly where you stopped the video using Covenant Kodi Addon. Moreover, it also has a slightly better and easy to use User interface. You can download the Kodi Covenant add-on from Kodi Israel as well as SuperRepo. Considering it has adapted all the great features of Kodi, if it gets the above error it can be irritating. Let us see how we can troubleshoot the issue on the Covenant Kodi add-on. #1 Clearing Cache Start your Kodi application and head over to the Covenant add-on. Next, select the “Tools” option in the menu that pops up. Then click the “Clear Providers” option in this menu and click yes on the prompt. Click on the “Clear Cache” option in the main Covenant menu and click on Yes in the prompt pop up. #2 Changing Default Action Launch Kodi and head over to the Covenant menu. Click on the “Tools” option on the menu. Click on Settings and then Playback Now, we have to alter the “Default Action” option in the menu to “Directory”. Wrap Up As you might have seen all these issues are more local device centric than online backend. So, it is a good idea to back up your device and then performs such workarounds. If you call yourself a techie you would already know this and make your device is safeguarded against such backend file editing. Most of these are simple steps, but some alter the backend local settings on Kodi. ShareTweetPin0 Shares Kodi
