One of the best features of Kodi is that you can essentially organise your collection locally, but then scrape information or images etc. from established online databases. (IMDB, TVDB, MusicBrainz, etc.)

Ultimately, just web search "Kodi blah" & invariably you'll get a direct wiki, online written guides, Youtube tutorials or a user forum discussion that will answer most questions.
Kodi is a feature rich all in one solution & it can seem a little daunting at first, but there's not actually that much to learn with regards to its basic functions & multimedia playback.
Additionally, if you use a NAS or a system as a centralised storage device at home, you can also configure Kodi across multiple different devices in different rooms to utilise a single central database via MySQL. It saves a lot of time managing a separate library on each individual device & it also includes features such as the ability to stop a song/movie in one room & immediately pick up watching it in another room on another device. (Again, sounds complicated but once oast the initial setup, management is actually quite simple.). Alternatively, many users use the Trakt service which essentially does the same thing, albeit all your personal info, file info, & viewing/listening habits are all online to some degree regardless of privacy levels used. Obviously that's a personal choice that's down to each individual .
Thank you very much. Unfortunately the U1 is no longer listed on their download page, so the above link you kindly put for me doesn't help. I tried the U22 but it didn't load on my U1, any idea what file to download for the U1?
