De tweede release candidate van Kodi versie 16.0 is uitgekomen. Deze crossplatform-mediacentersoftware wordt ontwikkeld voor Windows, OS X, Linux, Android en iOS. In versie 16.0 wordt onder meer de overstap van DirectX 9 naar 11 gemaakt, is er ondersteuning voor 4:3 Non-linear Stretch toegevoegd zodat ook oude tv-series goed worden weergegeven en worden instellingen van het uiterlijk van Kodi nu apart opgeslagen en niet meer samen met de overige systeeminstellingen. Verder kunnen er nu ook functies aan afstandsbedieningen worden toegekend wanneer een knop lang ingedrukt wordt en zijn er verbeteringen aan de add-on manager aangebracht. De release notes voor deze uitgave kunnen hieronder worden gevonden.
Kodi 16.0 “Jarvis” – Release Candidate 2
It’s time for the second Release Candidate for Kodi v16. Getting the first release candidate ready took a bit longer than we anticipated due to some problems along the way though they should be under control now. With this second release candidate we added a small number of fixes that users brought to our attention. Since we only have a small team and we can’t test it all we must rely on users reporting potential problems on our forum and we try to fix them within our limited spare time. All in all this release is looking like it’s quite solid so far.
Some of you commented on several occasion that we should first fix the “known problems” in our previous versions before jumping to the next one. The fact is that fixing those problems correctly is such an undertaking that we simply can’t keep working on the previous one. Our team vision is to keep moving forward and along the way release version for users to use and enjoy that are considered stable enough. We don’t force people to upgrade so if you like an older Kodi version for some reason just keep using it. This vision is known as Release Early Release Often (RERO) on which we’ll make a more in depth review soon.
Fixes done in this release compared to Release Candidate 1:
- Additional fixes done on saving setting when switching between different profiles
- Increase time-out when searching for audio devices on Windows which solves some cases of Kodi not starting
- Fix crash when unplugging USB devices
- Fix crash when choosing Add Timer in EPG window
