    This guide will show you how to create a beautiful build for kodi 19 matrix in a few simple steps, So you can put your personal touch and beautify your Kodi even more without losing any of the hard work you have done before like add-ons and settings.

    The latest version of the Kodi media center “ Kodi v19.0 Matrix” has arrived a few days ago and with it, many changes saw the light of the day. Most of these changes didn’t really please the end-users who found themselves without their best add-ons like Rising tides for sporting events, The Crew, and Magic Dragon for movies and TV Shows, and to name but only a few. In the meantime, other great add-ons surged to fill the gap. These add-ons were crafted with Python 3, which made them fully compatible with Kodi 19 Matrix. They have been tested and have been running flawlessly. You can check our list of Kodi 19compatible add-ons.

    Still, Kodi is one of the best solutions if we want to watch any multimedia content in high-quality video and audio. It gets even better if we transform it with our own style without losing our add-ons or the settings we have made. We are just changing the skin and we will have a very fast build crafted to suit our very specific needs.

    This way you will run a very light and fast build. It will have only the necessary add-ons that you like and everything will go through a very beautiful environment.

    In fact, many builds are available for you to use on Kodi, some of them are already prepared to use on the latest version of Kodi Matrix. But the problem with these builds is that they come packed with many add-ons that might not be necessarily important to you or don’t respond to your needs, or they come without the add-ons you normally use. Yes, you can install them, but you will ruin the performance and the speed of your Kodi.

     

    Create a lightweight build for Kodi 19 Matrix 

    Requirements

    To proceed with the creation of your own Kodi build, you must of course have installed some of the best add-ons you want to embed in the new custom build.

    If you have not already done so, we suggest some of the top add-ons that are now working greatly on Kodi 19, such as The Oath, Revolution, EntertainMe, Seren and Nemesis (both only with Real-Debrid ).

    If you have already these add-ons on your Kodi, go directly to the next step.

     

    Step 1 – Install the skin

    First, we need to download the Aeon Nox SiLVO skin through the official Kodi repository. 

    Go to Install from repository

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Select Kodi Add-on repository

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Select Look and Feel

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Then Skin

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Choose Aeon Nox: SiLVO skin

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Click on Install

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Click OK to install the necessary dependencies and add-ons for this skin to work perfectly.

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    A notification will ask if you want to switch to this skin. Click Yes

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Then another notification will ask if you want to keep this change. Click Yes

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Once you press yes to define the new skin, it is important to do absolutely nothing. You need to give it some time to shape the new environment.

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build
     

    In few seconds, you will see, on a black background, the predefined menu of the new Kodi Skin. Reminiscent of the layout of most builds.

    Step 2 – Set a custom background

    Our next step is to add some of your favorite photos to get Kodi the background you want. Follow the path described below:

    Once the new skin starts, it will let you know that it comes with no default background. This means that you have to set one. Click Yes to continue

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Now, from the three options, select Set multi-image background

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    In the next window, select External storage

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Pick the folder containing the photos you want to set for the background

    Remember: you can always change the background any time you want. To do so:

    From the main menu go to System

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Then Enter Interface

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Under the Skin tab in the left menu Select Configure Skin

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Now under General tab on the left menu, click on Set default background

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    From here you will have to choose whether you want to set a single image background or a multi-image background. To get a beautifully animated background, select the second option: multi-image background

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    In the next window, select External storage

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Now find the file that contains the photos you want to set as background for your Kodi.

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build
    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Once you return to the main panel, the image you selected will be displayed. If you select a folder with our favorite photos, they will be rotated in the main panel of Kodi.

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    It is good to remember that the better the resolution of the photos you set for the background of the build, the more impressive the result will be.

     

    Step 3 – Setup widgets

    From the main screen of Aeon Nox, click on “System“

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Next, go to Interface

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Under the Skin tab in the left menu, select Configure Skin

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    From the “Customization” tab, select Setup the Aeon Nox main menu

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Now, we are going to setup a widget for the MOVIES item of the menu: 

    From the “MOVIES” section, select “Change Action” 

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Then “Add-ons“.

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Select Video add-ons

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Now, you have to choose the add-on you want. For this guide, we are going to use the Revolution add-on, one of the best working add-ons for Kodi 19 for Movies and TV Shows. 

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    In the next tab, click on “Movies“

    build-for-kodi

    Now finish by clicking on “Create menu item to here“.

    build-for-kodi

    Then, carefully and without accidentally leaving the same section of the MOVIES that are on our left, scroll down and click on “Select Widget 1” 

    build-for-kodi

    Then “Select widget” 

    build-for-kodi

    In the next window, select Add-ons

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Then Video add-ons

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Choose exactly the same add-on you used before. In our case Revolution

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Now, click on Movies.

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    At this point, it is up to you to select a category you like from the list that appears for example, “New Movies” or “Most Popular“, or any other category you want. Here, we have selected the New Movies category.

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Once you make your choice, you will have to wait a while for the works to be registered. 

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Now, finish this job by first selecting “Use as Widget” 

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    And then “Done“.

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

     

    Step 4 – customize the widget style

    This skin offers you the ability to place the thumbnails of movies and TV series on the center panel to cover the entire surface horizontally, in a nicer shape.

    In this case, you have to set the “Widget style” from the tab that will appear right after you click “Done“.

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Under Widget style, select Panel extended

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    In the next window, activate the option Panel widget info

    Then click on Case and select Glass

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build
     
    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    With this, you have successfully setup a widget for the Movies item.

    You can have an even more impressive result with the Movie thumbnails on the main screen by adding a second row to the same item for another category of content. Just follow the exact same steps explained above to setup “Widget 2“.

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Also, follow the exact same steps we saw before with the MOVIES item to setup the TV SHOWS item. You can opt for another add-on this time.

    That was it, the creation of your custom build is successfully complete.

    Now, return to the main screen. In the Movies section, you will see the impressive change. 

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    By clicking on the movie thumbnail, the project will always start with the add-on we have selected.

    When you highlight a movie or a TV Shows it will show more info right on the main screen

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    When we click on Movies or
     Rows, the entire menu with the subcategories of the add-on movies will open.

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

     

    Changes you can make

    If you want, you can change the name of a category:

    • From the main screen of Aeon Nox, click on “System“
    • Next, go to Interface
    • Under the Skin tab in the left menu Select Configure Skin
    • From the “Customization” tab, select Setup the Aeon Nox main menu
    • Now go to Set label 
    • Write the title you want and click Done

    In addition, change their positionby clicking on the arrows shown in the image below.

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

     

    How to revert back to the Kodi default skin

    If you want to go back to the default Kodi skin, you simply have to make few steps:

    From the main menu go to System

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Then select Interface

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Click on Skin

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Now select Estuary

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

    Click Yes to keep that skin

    kodi-19-matrix-aeon-nox-build

     

    That’s it, you Kodi will now retrieve its original skin without losing any of the add-ons or the settings you already have.
