How to update inputstream-adaptive

Help and Support Raspberry Pi

Hi,

I’m trying to update inputstream.adaptive (inputstream-adaptive) from 21.5.9 to (at least) 21.5.16 on my device, but am unable to do so.

Details of my setup:


osmc@osmc:~$ cat /sys/firmware/devicetree/base/model
Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.5

osmc@osmc:~$ uname -a
Linux osmc 5.15.92-1-osmc #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Jul 25 00:03:42 UTC 2023 aarch64 GNU/Linux

osmc@osmc:~$ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

osmc@osmc:~$ cat /etc/os-release
PRETTY_NAME="Open Source Media Center"
NAME="OSMC"
VERSION="August 2025"
VERSION_ID="2025.08-1"
ID=osmc
ID_LIKE=debian

When I go to Add-ons > My add-ons > VideoPlayer InputStream > InputStream Adaptive, I can see that I got version 21.5.9 installed, but no way of updating it.

One of the add-ons I’d like to install, requires version 21.5.16. What should I do?

Thank you! :slight_smile:

Did you revert the version in that add-on’s setting at some point so it didn’t auto update? I just checked mine and it had auto updated to 21.5.17.

Just update to the staging repository or wait for the next stable update with Kod v21.3

I don’t think I ever did, but I can’t rule that out - I could have simply forgotten. :confused:

Could it be that you’re using staging repository, as mentioned by @sam_nazarko, so you got access to newer version?

Do you know, by any chance, when next stable update might be released?

It seems that OSMC is not following any regular release schedule, rather: it’s ready when it’s ready, am I right? Tags · osmc/osmc · GitHub

Sorry, didn’t think there would be a difference with that add-on right now, but the RPi 4 that I had checked was on staging and when I just checked on one of my stable release boxes the version was showing as 21.5.3.

Correct. The goal is less bugs, not fast release.

Will bring 21.3 out as a stable release shortly which will also update InputStream

Just dropping in to report that updating OSMC in fact helped :slightly_smiling_face: thank you!
