Kodi for ATV4 is now available!

An official version of Kodi for ATV4 is now available in it’s Alpha stage. Certain thing within Kodi will not work but it’s a move in the right direction shortly after MRMC released his version of Kodi. As it is still in the Alpha phase there are still quite a few things that do not work correctly. But this is still a HUGE step towards a full version of Kodi on the Apple TV. In the next few days the Apple TV 4 Jailbreak team will test out the Alpha version of Kodi for the ATV4 and post a video review on it’s YouTube channel.

So will you buy an Apple TV 4?

MrMC – Kodi Fork Now Available on tvOS App Store for Apple TV 4

Posted in 3rd Party, For Sale, Jailbreaking, Kodi, TVOS

MrMC brings Kodi to the Apple TV 4

MrMC the Kodi fork for TVos is here! This is a basic and simple version of Kodi/XBMC for tvOS or the Apple TV 4. As of my testing there is no direct way to add popular add-ons like Genesis, Phoenix or SportsDevil but this is the first release *fingers crossed*. The program isn’t free it’s $5.99 USD ($6.99 CAD) and can be downloaded right from the TVos App Store. Despite the limitations I still suggest you download it. MrMC no doubt put time and effort into creating this version of Kodi we should all encourage and applaud this type of development. As it could be a gateway for a full blown version of Kodi being installed on the ATV4 with or without a jailbreak.

Check out the video!

Kodi on ATV4? A TVOS Port in the Works

Posted in 3rd Party, Jailbreaking, Kodi, Media Players, Release Date, TVOS

Kodi on ATV4? Yes it’s coming soon and now closer than ever!

MrMC a senior Kodi member is currently working on a version for Kodi on ATV4. This port would be fully compatible with the new TVOS operating system. In the effort to become fully compatible with TVOS and meet Apple criteria some Kodi features will be lost.
Note: A list of lost features was not mentioned or provided.

“MrMC is a fork/rebrand/refactor of Kodi. All offending sins have been purged from the codebase. So some features of Kodi might not be present. This lets us get into the App Store, not only for TVOS but iOS and OSX as well. Our timeline is a few weeks, basics are up and stable. Just some minor issues to resolve.

Kodi itself would never get approved. Not for TVOS nor iOS or OSX. Too many sins. So even when Kodi gets ported to TVOS, the only ways to get on the physical device are;

a) self compile, install via xcode
b) ipa resign/repack install via xcode
c) ipwnstore or similar.

Eventually, you will be able to run Kodi on the new AppleTV. But the port is not trivial and MrMC fork has a month head start and I’m an expert at porting the code base (did the original ATV1, ATV2, iOS, and Android ports) and dealing with issues. Others known me as ‘davilla’.

As soon as we enter the App Store, then all our private work becomes public and Kodi devs can start cherry-picking. Or they can start on their own version now, their choice.

We don’t see Kodi as competition to MrMC fork. We are aiming at the 80 percent users that just want to play their local content without having to do flips and tricks to get there. Kodi can have the other 20 percent geeks and tweakers” – MrMC
