Solution 3 – Try a VPN
If Exodus is not working on your Kodi, especially if the error you’re getting is the “No stream available” error, it is possible that your internet provider has blocked Kodi videos.
A virtual private network offers a workaround. A VPN can pull wool over your ISP’s eyes by masking the video. As a result, the ISP will not be able to recognize the Kodi video, and hence will not prevent it from streaming.
Before you pay for a VPN service, we suggest you try a free plan to see if this works.
Solution 4 – Adjust Kodi’s Video Cache Settings
Whenever you load a TV program or a movie in Kodi, it saves a file. In case these files are bulky, you might face issues when you try to play videos. Chances are you may see a lot of buffering happening.
To confirm if this is indeed the problem and to resolve it, you must perform these steps:

With the add-on installed, it’s time to tweak Kodi’s video cache settings. Following which, you need to remove the temp files.

Solution 5 – Update the Graphics Card
Sometimes, the Exodus not working properly on Kodi issue occurs because of outdated, corrupt, and incorrect graphics card drivers.
Therefore, you should try updating your graphics card drivers.
You can update your graphics drivers in two ways – via device manager (manually) or using a reliable driver update software. We recommend the latter, because it’s easy, fast, and more accurate. Nevertheless, we’ve given the steps for both the methods so that you can decide which one suits you better.
Update Graphics Card Driver Manually
Here are the steps to follow:
- Press Windows logo + R
- In the run dialog box, type devmgmt.msc
- In the Device Manager window, expand Display adapters. All the installed graphic cards will appear here
- Write down the name of your graphics card. Next, navigate to the car manufacturer’s website or your computer manufacturer’s website. Search for the newest driver for your graphics card or computer model. Alternatively, type the important details regarding your graphics card (such as its model number and the name) in Google search bar and press Enter. You will list of sites that have that driver. Select any reputable website. Whichever method you are using, once you’ve located the latest driver, download it and save it on your desktop or any other place. Before you download the latest driver, ensure it corresponds to your computer type. This basically means, Windows 10 32-bit users should use the driver file meant for 32-bit computers. Likewise, if you’re using Windows 64-bit computer, download the driver file meant for 64-bit computers.
- Once you’ve downloaded and saved the latest driver file, go to Device Manager, right-click the graphics card and click Uninstall device
- Select the box before Delete the driver software for this device. Now click Uninstall
- Restart windows after the uninstalling process is complete
- Now run the graphic card driver’s setup file. Follow on-screen instructions to complete installation.
