configure -host=x86_64-apple-darwin -with-platform=macos Note that we checkout Kodi to a separate directory as this repo will only only be used to build the addon and nothing else. Following this we copy the addon into Kodi. Instead using make directly as per the supported build steps for Kodi on mac we can build the tools and just the addon on its own. In order to build the addon on mac the steps are different to Linux and Windows as the cmake command above will not produce an addon that will run in Kodi.

For video on demand stream seeking will be enabled within the duration of the video regardless of the inputstream used. will depend on both the provider of the streams and the inputstream used. The options available, such as pause/resume, seeking, timshifting etc. IPTV Simple will play back videos and streams using a number of different inputstreams.
