Kodi, formerly known as XBMC is an award winning free and
open source software media-player and entertainment hub for all your digital
media. Kodi is available for Linux, Mac OS X (Leopard, Tiger and Apple TV)
and Microsoft Windows, as well as the original Xbox game console. Created in
2003 by a group of like minded programmers, Kodi is a non-profit project run
and developed by volunteers located around the world. More than 50 software
developers have contributed to Kodi, and 100-plus translators have worked to
expand its reach, making it available in more than 30 languages.
.
While Kodi functions very well as a standard media player application for
your computer, it has been designed to be the perfect companion for your
HTPC. Supporting an almost endless range of remote controls, and combined
with its beautiful interface and powerful skinning engine, Kodi feels very
natural to use from the couch and is the ideal solution for your home
theater. Once installed, your computer will become a fully functional
multimedia jukebox.

This package contains the kodi binaries.
