How to Install The Magic Dragon Addon on Kodi

This tutorial will guide you through the installation process of The Magic Dragon addon on Kodi. The installation method is applicable to all Kodi platforms including your FireStick, Android TV, Android Boxes, Mac, Windows, Android Mobiles and more.

The Magic Dragon Kodi addon brings to you a solid line-up of your favorite movies, shows, documentaries, videos for kids, music, sport, radio and more. It is an on-demand addon that functions on the scraping technology. In other words, it uses software programs to look up for the streaming links available through various sources on the Internet. It picks a set of links and rounds them up before you to choose from.

This addon comes from a reputed source Maverick. This source is home to various quality Kodi builds and addons. The Magic Dragon is a replacement of once very popular and now defunct The Dogs Bollocks addon.

The Magic Dragon also lets you enhance your entertainment experience by allowing integration with Real-Debrid. With Real Debrid you gain access to even higher-resolution (up to 4K) and healthier streams. Also, you can sign in with Trakt onto The Magic Dragon and sync your streaming data back and forth. All in all, The Magic Dragon is a wonderful addon to have and is also a part of our Best Kodi Addons. Let’s learn how to get it.

How to Download & Install Magic Dragon Kodi Addon

The installation process I am going to discuss with you is broadly divided into two parts as follows:

Part 1: Allow the Unknown Sources

Part 2: Install The Magic Dragon Kodi Addon

Let us get started.

Part 1: Allow the Unknown Sources

This part is the prerequisite of Part 2. If you haven’t allowed Unknown Sources, you simply cannot install any third-party Kodi addon, such as The Magic Dragon.

What we are going to do is tweak a small security setting. Don’t worry, it will be completely harmless as long as you are installing trustworthy addons like The Magic Dragon. Here come the steps:

#1: Click Settings from the home-screen of Kodi. What you should be looking for is the gear/cog-like icon on the top-left

#2: Access the menu item System next on the window that displays next

#3: You should now see some menu items on the left of the next screen. Click Add-ons

A new set of options are displayed on the right. Here, you need to enable/switch ON the entry Unknown Sources by moving its toggle to the right

#4: You must now see the following warning message. Go ahead and click Yes

We now start with the installation instructions.

Part 2: Install The Magic Dragon Kodi Addon

The installation itself is a 2-part process as follows:

• Provide the source Path/URL
• Install the Repository and Addon

Both these parts will be covered in the following steps:

#1: Go to the Kodi Settings again by clicking the gear/cog symbol. When you are there, click File manager

#2: Now click and access the Add-source option on the screen that follows (you may click this option on either side)

#3: You must now see a popup window. Click where it says <None>

#4: You are now supposed to provide the source URL to Kodi from where it will install the repository and The Magic Dragon addon.

Here is the URL: http://mavericktv.net/mavrepo/

Click OK

#5: Now name the source you just added. You may choose any name you wish to identify the added source with. I am going with the default mavrepo

Click OK

#6: Now press the backspace button or back key until you are back on the Settings menu. You may also access Settings option from the home-screen of Kodi

Click Add-ons

#7: Now click the Install from zip file item on the window that follows

#9: Click and run the zip file repository.maverick-x.x.zip.

The version of this file may vary from what you see in the image below. Therefore, I have replaced it with x.x.

#10: Wait until you see the message Maverick TV Repo installed

#11: Now you want to access Install from repository

#12: Go ahead and access the Maverick TV repository

#13: Choose Video add-ons next

#14: Locate and click The Magic Dragon

#15: Hit the Install button on the following window

#16: When you observe this list of additional addons that will be installed with The Magic Dragon, click OK

#17: The Magic Dragon Kodi addon may take more than a minute to install. Wait until the message The Magic Dragon installed flashes on your display in the upper-right corner

Most Kodi users are nowadays using a Kodi VPN to hide their IP from anyone who might be tracking you including your ISP and Government. I always connect ExpressVPN on all my streaming devices and I suggest you do the same.

ExpressVPN is the fastest and most secure VPN. It comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. Meaning, you can use it freely for the first 30-days and if you are not satisfied with the performance, you can ask for the full refund.

NOTE: We do not encourage the violation of the copyright laws. A VPN should be used to protect your privacy, not for streaming pirated content. 

So, before you start streaming on Kodi, here's how to get a VPN protection in 3 simple steps.

Step 1: Subscribe to ExpressVPN HERE.

Step 2: Click HERE to download and install the ExpressVPN app on your device.

Step 3: Open ExpressVPN app and Click the Power icon to connect a VPN server. 

That's all. Your connection is now secure with the fastest and best VPN for Kodi.
