Turns out it was a problem on my end.
I'm using Cloudflare DNS for families, and apprently "addons.libreelec.tv" is filtered. Hence I wasn't getting access to LE addons.
With that resolved installed went fine. Thank for support.

Once InputStreamHelper is installed, is it supposed to download the image and extract modules on it's own? Or do I need to do something?
Based on the logs it was initially complaining about missing directory:
2026-02-21 13:47:47.501 T:980 error <general>: GetDirectory - Error getting /storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/script.module.inputstreamhelper
2026-02-21 13:47:47.501 T:980 error <general>: GetDirectory - Error getting special://masterprofile/addon_data/script.module.inputstreamhelper
2026-02-21 13:47:47.501 T:980 error <general>: CGUIDialogFileBrowser::GetDirectory(special://masterprofile/addon_data/script.module.inputstreamhelper) failed
So I've manually created it.
I've also tried installing it, but it wouldn't initiate any fetches, and reports:
2026-02-21 14:59:26.092 T:4610 error <general>: [script.module.inputstreamhelper] inputstream.adaptive is disabled.

Looking into debug section, I can manually download the image:
On another hand installing Youtube which requires IA, fails:

Hi
is inputstream adaptive available for rpi (4) / aarch64? One of the steaming add-ons requires it, and it did install the inputstreamhelper, which then can manage versions of inputsteam adaptive and others, but nothing pops up.
I'm on LibreELEC (official): 12.2.1 (RPi4.aarch64). and looks like the plugin is not available. Is that correct?
Or do i need to perform some other installs / actions?
Thx
