Kodi (formerly known as XBMC) is a multi-platform media center. It runs very well on the APF6 Dual/Quad.

Installation

$ make apf6mediacenter_defconfig
  • Take some coffees
  • Reflash kernel, rootfs & DTBs

Usage

  • Application is launched by default with the generated rootfs
  • You will need a keyboard/joystick to control the application

Tips

  • Launch network interface before kodi:
# udhcpc -i eth0 -b
  • If no RTC, get current time from NTP:
# ntpd -nqp 217.147.208.1
  • De-activate Framebuffer timeout and blinking cursor: Framebuffer#Tips
  • have enough space to install extensions:
# resize2fs /dev/mmcblk2p2
