Retrospect – Online TV for Kodi 23 Jul 2019 5:27 AM (6 years ago)
Retrospect (Previously XBMC Online TV) is a Kodi video add-on which allows you to watch streams of a number of free and publicly available online TV stream sites. It originally started the streams from www.uitzendinggemist.nl which is a Dutch site. The add-on got its initial name from this site: ‘Uitzending gemist’ means ‘missed broadcast’ in Dutch. […]
How does updating Retrospect work? 13 Feb 2019 2:34 PM (6 years ago)
There has been a lot of confusion on how Retrospect update work. So this KB article is an attempt to explain the main ideas and principles behind the system. And the most important things to remember are: Kodi caches stuff in the addons/packages/ folder and will always (yes always) use a file from that location. […]

The Current Retrospect Status 2 Oct 2017 6:25 AM (8 years ago)
We’re doing it slowly! 2017-11-01 – Update #4 I have seen some zip files pop-ing up with Retrospect versions. None of them are from a trusted source and I would like to caution everybody to not blindly install add-ons of un-trusted sources. So to prevent this from happening further, I am opening up the Retrospect […]
Storing passwords in the Retrospect Vault 7 Feb 2017 1:09 AM (8 years ago)
Many Kodi add-ons store user name and passwords in their add-on settings. However, almost nobody seems to care about the fact that these are stored in plain text in the settings.xml in the user_data folder. Many users do not secure their Kodi boxes as well as their own PC or laptops, hence there is a […]
If a channel breaks now I/we notice! 2 Apr 2016 11:45 AM (9 years ago)
On May 15, 2014 I wrote a post on why it is very difficult to notice when a channel breaks. You can read that post here. The short version is that I am not Superman (or Batman or Luke Skywalker) and cannot keep track of all 60+ channel within Retrospect. Advanced Statistics However, in Retrospect […]
GIT-ing things done 5 Dec 2015 1:16 PM (9 years ago)
A while ago we moved to BitBucket for the Retrospect Issue Tracker (see Bitbucket here we come). Together with this change, we also converted our SVN repository to a GIT repo and added it as a private repository to the BitBucket project. The big benefit is that issues that are fixed are linked to the […]

What’s in a name? – Part 2 29 Mar 2015 1:09 PM (10 years ago)
… Apparently still a lot! A while ago On the 23rd November 2013 I announced that XOT-Uzg.v3 was going to change its name. Back then, the main reason was to make it more clear for people, especially none-Dutch speaking people, what the add-on did. That day XBMC Online TV was born. Then on the 1st […]
