I had xbmc like a decade ago, before I gave up on the aye matey lifestyle

Same thing here.

I was just assuming it was some other hardware solution

Yeah I though so. LibreELEC is a Linux distro with just enough OS to run kodi.

Thanks, one last question… What rpi do you recommend?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

I'm using a rpi4 model B 4GB.

Works pretty well for my needs. At least until now I don't feel like it's underpowered.

It plays 4K video from my main PC with no problems or stuttering. But I mainly use it for 1080p.
