    Yes you most certainly can, A lot of images have it pre-installed such as blackhole but others you may need to download it from the plugin section

          i have found it and installed and loaded pulse it dos not appear to be working well thouth i thought it would work better than my kodi box with the spec of the receiver.
          i run a film music etc than i get a black screen ?
          this is the first time i have gone into the extensions area being new any recomendations on other ext to load on.
          thanks

            I believe it works better with a USB drive connected as well to cache etc..

                  I have it on my solo2 and it works ok.
                  I also run openvix and I installed the "vuplus-kodi" plugin from the downloads menu. I then followed a guide posted by forum member cunny and loaded the paradox build into kodi.
                  I dont use a usb drive at all.

                        In the past while testing kodi on box I have found that fresh reflash is best way but make sure you back up any files you might need before doing so.
