I used to use Kodi, worked really well.

Asked Perplexity, got this back, seems right.


When choosing a Linux distribution for a Home Theater PC (HTPC), several options are tailored for media consumption:

  1. LibreELEC: This is a lightweight, fast, and easy-to-use media center distro based on Kodi. It's designed for dedicated media center PCs and supports various media formats. LibreELEC is simple to set up and runs smoothly on older hardware[5].

  2. OSMC: Another Kodi-based distro, OSMC is known for its automatic media library updates and support for remote control devices. It is designed to be lightweight and efficient, making it ideal for media playback[5].

  3. OpenELEC: Similar to LibreELEC, OpenELEC is a "just enough operating system" designed for running Kodi. It is suitable for embedding into a media center setup[6].

  4. Ubuntu MATE: Although not specifically a media center distro, Ubuntu MATE is user-friendly and can be configured with media center software like Kodi or Plex. It offers flexibility and stability for a media center environment[5].

  5. Linux Mint: Known for its ease of use, Linux Mint can also be used as a media center with additional software installations. It provides a full desktop experience with the option to install Kodi[7].

Each of these options provides different levels of customization and ease of use, making them suitable for various HTPC needs.

The Google form results go only to the management team of our parent non-profit, no one else sees the responses. If you feel that this is not secure enough, you can send a secure PGP email to our security disclosure address. We DO provide it for folks that need more security.

Yeah, those have always been tricky to get working right. I just don't bother.
