<div>{{TOC right}}<br />
On Kodi Wiki, a bureaucrat is a user who has the technical ability to:<br />
* Promote other users to administrator or bureaucrat;<br />
* Grant and revoke a user's {{Code|bot}} flag;<br />
* Add and remove users from the interface-admin group;<br />
* Add and remove users from other custom user rights groups;<br />
* Remove a user's administrator and/or bureaucrat flags.<br />
<br />
== Promoting users and bots ==<br />
If you are a bureaucrat, to give or remove another user administrator, bureaucrat or bot access (or any other access), go to the [[Special:UserRights]] page. There is a link to this on the list of [[Special:Specialpages|special pages]].<br />
<br />
Type the user's name into the box, and enter a reason for the change. Choose the rights you wish to assign/remove to the user by ticking/unticking the relevant boxes. Note that if the user group has an asterisk (*) next to it, you will not be able to remove it yourself. When you are done, press the ''Save user groups'' button.<br />
<br />
The user will gain their access immediately and the action will be recorded at the [[Special:Log/rights|User rights log]].<br />

<br />
Kodi includes the ability to connect to user-published or ''third-party'' add-on repositories which provide untrusted add-ons, unlike those found in the [[Official add-on repository|official add-on repository]]. Shown below are listings of some of the more widely-known such repositories.<br />
<br />
== Information for add-on developers ==<br />
'''''{{Big|Please consider:}}'''''<br />
:* '''{{Big|Applying to [[Submitting Add-ons|have your add-on included]] in the [[Official add-on repository|official add-on repository]].}}'''<br />
:* If it does not meet the required conditions, consider contacting the owner of an existing unofficial repository and ask if they would be willing to let you distribute your add-on from there.<br />
:* You can also create your own repository. See [[Add-on repositories|Add-on repositories]], and then add it to the table below for it to show up in the Repositories Installer Add-on.<br />
<br />
'''''{{Big|Also, be advised that:}}'''''<br />
:* {{Big|The '''[[Official:Forum_rules|forum rules]]''' on '''[[Official:Forum rules/Banned add-ons|piracy content]]''' apply to the wiki as well!}}<br />
:* When adding entries to the table, it should be organized ''alphabetically'' according to the ''Repository Name'' column, and the descriptions must be as ''concise'' and ''accurate'' as possible.<br />
<br />
== How to install additional add-on repositories ==<br />
You can install individual repositories by following the same process as described for '''[[Add-on manager#How to install from a ZIP file|installing an add-on from a ZIP file]]'''.<br />
<br />
To access the contents of the newly installed repository, from the home screen browse to: '''<samp>Add-ons ▶ Install from repository ▶ <var>Repository name</var></samp>'''<br />
<br />

<div>{{Mininav|[[Kodi Foundation]]|[[Kodi Foundation/Elections|Elections]]}}<br />
== Pre-election ==<br />
'''[[User:Kibje|Kib]]''' served as the election administrator, as his seat was not up for re-election.<br />
<br />
== Nomination notice ==<br />
The following notice was posted on the [[Archive:Team Kodi|Team Kodi]] private forum, and linked to in an e-mail to all [[Kodi Foundation]] members, to give due notice about the election and solicit nominations for the same. The Foundation bylaws state that at least ten days must be given for a notice about member decisions such as an election, this length of time being coterminous with the nomination period.<br />
{| class="wikitable" style="margin-left: 3em;"<br />
|+ ''{{#dateformat:2016-10-17|mdy}} "Nominations for XBMC Foundation Board", as written by [[User:Keith|keith]]''<br />
| Hi everybody, it's October, which means it's time for elections again. Board member seats up for election this year are: [[User:Martijn|Martijn]], [[User:Montellese|Montellese]] and [[User:Natethomas|Natethomas]].<br />
<br />
Seats not up for election are [[User:Fritsch|Fritsch]] and [[User:Keith|Keith]] (me).<br />
<br />
The rules are pretty simple:<br />
# Any team member can nominate.<br />
# You're allowed to re-nominate.<br />
# The nominated member has to accept his nomination.<br />
# Only foundation members will be able to vote<ref name="eligibility">Anyone who has been added to [[Archive:Team Kodi/Members|the team]] since {{#dateformat:2016-09-15|mdy}} should also check out this thread. … If you'd like to vote in the election, you need to be accepted as a [[Kodi Foundation|foundation]] member and affirm its by-laws.</ref>.<br />
# If a person has been nominated, please don't nominate again.<br />
<br />
Please make sure to keep your nominations simple and clear. For example:<br />
<br />
<blockquote>'''Nominate: <var>Member's name</var>'''</blockquote><br />
<br />
In case you're nominated, please reply with…<br />
<br />
<blockquote>'''I accept my nomination.'''</blockquote><br />
<br />
:::or<br />
<br />
<blockquote>'''No, thanks. I do not accept my nomination.'''</blockquote><br />
<br />
I'll update the second post in this thread with a list of members and the nomination status on a regular basis, so you don't have to crawl through all posts/pages to check.<br />
<br />
The nomination period is five (5) days, ending on October 17<sup>th</sup>, 2018 and actual voting will begin on October 18<sup>th</sup>, lasting until October 26<sup>th</sup>.<br />
|}<br />
<br />
== Voting ==<br />
Voting started on {{#dateformat:2018-08-29|mdy}} and ended on {{#dateformat:2018-09-30|mdy}} using the [https://civs1.civs.us/ Condorcet Internet Voting Service] with a ranking scale.<br />
<br />
Individual e-mail addresses from Foundation members were entered into the CIVS ballot and mailed each Foundation member with a unique voting key url. This also served as the notice for the start of the voting period.<br />
<br />
A second notice was sent outside of the CIVS system in order to reduce the chance of someone accidentally not receiving a voting notice. Voting notices can be sent out again, but voting keys are generated based on e-mail addresses and thus prevent double voting.<br />
<br />
The following description was used for the ballot:<br />
{| class="wikitable" style="margin-left: 3em;"<br />
| You're voting for 3 candidates to join the [[Kodi Foundation|XBMC Foundation]] board alongside [[User:Martijn|Martijn]] and [[User:Kibje|Kib]], whose appointments last for another twelve (12) months. <br />
<br />
Each of the people below have been nominated and have accepted their nomination. <br />
<br />
The 3 candidates that receive the highest support will join the board for a period of two (2) years.<br />
<br />
Good luck to the candidates.<br />
|}<br />
<br />
=== Final list of confirmed nominees ===<br />
* [[User:Keith|keith]]<br />
* [[User:Lrusak|lrusak]]<br />
* Ace<br />
* [[User:DarrenHill|DarrenHill]]<br />
<br />
== Results ==<br />
'''[https://civs1.civs.us/cgi-bin/results.pl?id=E_8c2428c84bfd8e3e <big>Official Results</big>]'''<br />
<br />
Thirty-seven (37) [[Kodi Foundation]] members voted. The top three (3) ranked become board members effective October 2018. [[User:Keith|Keith]], [[User:Lrusak|Lrusak]] and [[User:DarrenHill|DarrenHill]] were elected as board members.<br />

<div>== How to help migrate the wiki documentation from XBMC to Kodi ==<br />
With the Kodi v14 "Helix" release being imminent, we're asking for all the help we can get to update our documentation to refer to the new Kodi name.<br />
<br />
Currently, this is what I've been doing:<br />
* Prioritize wiki pages that need to be updated with the new name in order for the instructions to work and make sense, such as install pages.<br />
* {{S|1=In many places we are using a template that you just type as {{Tlx|Kodi}}, which pastes the text "XBMC/Kodi", to refer to both names. The template will be easy to update so that every place where {{Tlx|Kodi}} is typed can be updated at once.}}<br />
** [[Template:Kodi|The template]] has been updated to just say "Kodi", so we can just write that directly now. There might still be places where it is good to write both names, so using "Kodi/XBMC" or "Kodi, formerly known as XBMC, …" would be okay in the intro section of that page.<br />
* Sometimes the name "XBMC" can be removed completely and something will still make sense. For example, "Go into XBMC's video settings" can just be replaced with "go into the video settings", since we're normally just talking about XBMC/Kodi itself and not another program.<br />
* Places where exact file paths or links or other exact instructions are used, it's good to just show a note about the future rename. For example, the [[userdata]] page says that the XBMC directory will be renamed as Kodi in the future. That same note is transcluded on many other pages that reference the userdata folder path. Once Kodi is released we will still have a note there, but it will be past-tense and say something like "the Kodi directory was named "XBMC" in past versions".<br />
* Brand new features for v14 can be just written as Kodi, since they technically don't exist under any stable "XBMC" release.<br />
* Historic references to older versions should remain as "XBMC". For example, if talking about a specific version, such as v12, it would be XBMC v12 and not Kodi v12.<br />
* The [[Kodi Foundation|XBMC Foundation]] is now called the Kodi Foundation.<br />
* Be careful of urls or commands that might not have been updated yet. Many "under the surface" portions of the program still reference "xbmc".<br />
<br />
If you're ever not sure how to go about updating the name, feel free to ask me on the wiki in the thread '''[[forum:207532|wiki edits: xbmc -> kodi?]]''', or even just take your best guess. The great thing about a wiki is that everyone is able to see the changes and can double check each other. -- [[User:Ned Scott|Ned Scott]] ([[User talk:Ned Scott|talk]]) 21:37, 3 December 2014 (EST)<br />

== Kodi Foundation Privacy Policy ==<br />
''Last updated: '''April 15<sup>th</sup>, 2014'''''<br />
<br />
Your privacy is an important factor that the Kodi Foundation (that's us) considers in the development of each of our products and services. We are committed to being transparent and open. This Kodi Foundation Privacy Policy broadly explains how we receive information about you and what we do with that information once we have it. You can also read our product privacy notices and FAQs to get more detail with respect to each of our products and services.<br />
<br />
=== What do we mean by "personal information?" ===<br />
For us, "personal information" means information which identifies you, like your name or email address. Any information that falls outside this definition is considered "non-personal information."<br />
<br />
If we store your personal information with information that is non-personal, we will consider the combination as personal information. If we remove all personal information from a set of data then the remaining is non-personal information.<br />
<br />
=== What sources do we have for information about users? ===<br />
We learn information about you when:<br />
* you give it to us directly (e.g. when you choose to send us crash reports)<br />
* you register an account on one of the Kodi Foundation-owned websites, like the Kodi Community forum<br />
* when we try and understand more about you based on information you've given to us (e.g. when we use your IP address to redirect your download request to the nearest mirror server)<br />
<br />
=== What do we do with your information once we have it? ===<br />
When you give us information, we will use it in the ways for which you've given us permission. Generally, we use your information to help us provide and improve our products and services for you and only if you specifically ask us to use your information.<br />
<br />
=== When do we share your information with others? ===<br />
Only when we have asked and received your explicit permission to share it! Examples of such interactions include…<br />
* …for processing or providing products and services to you, but only if those entities receiving your information are contractually obligated to handle the data in ways that are approved by the Kodi Foundation.<br />
* …when we are fulfilling our mission of being open. We sometimes release information to make our products better and foster an open web, but when we do so, we take the utmost care to first anonymize your information and make every effort to only disclose it in ways that minimizes the risk of you being re-identified.<br />
* …when the law requires it; we follow the law whenever we receive requests about you from a government or related to a lawsuit.<br />
** We'll notify you when we're asked to hand over your personal information in this way unless we're legally prohibited from doing so. When we receive requests like this, we'll only release your personal information if we have a good faith belief that the law actually requires us to do so. Nothing in this policy is intended to limit any legal defenses or objections that you may have to a third party's request to disclose your information.<br />
* …when we believe it is necessary to prevent harm to you or someone else. We will only share your information in this way if we have a good faith belief that it is reasonably necessary to protect the rights, property or safety of you, our other users, the Kodi Foundation or the public.<br />
* …if our organizational structure or status changes (i.e. if we undergo a restructuring, are acquired, or go bankrupt), we may pass your information to a successor or affiliate.<br />
<br />
=== How do we store and protect your personal information? ===<br />
We are committed to protecting your personal information once we have it. We implement physical, business and technical security measures. Despite our efforts, if we learn of a security breach, we'll notify you so that you can take appropriate protective steps.<br />
<br />
We also don't want your personal information for any longer than we need it, so we only keep it long enough to do what we collected it for. Once we don't need it, we take steps to destroy it unless we are required by law to keep it longer.<br />
<br />
== Controlling your information ==<br />
You may control your information by:<br />
* Changing your profile information by accessing the “Account Settings” page of the Kodi forum or website(s).<br />
* Linking or unlinking your account from another account of an external social networking website.<br />
* Deleting your account. You may delete your account by selecting the option to delete your account in the “Account Settings” page. We will delete your information within a reasonable amount of time after receiving the request except that we may retain archived copies of your information as required by law or for legitimate business purposes.<br />
<br />
== What else should you know? ==<br />
We're a global organization and our computers are in several different places around the world. We also use service providers whose computers may also be in various countries. This means that your information might end up on one of those computers in another country, and that country may have a different level of data protection regulation than yours. By giving us information, you consent to this kind of transfer of your information. No matter what country your information is in, we comply with applicable law and will also abide by the commitments we make in this privacy policy.<br />
<br />
== What if we change this privacy policy or any of our privacy notices? ==<br />
We may need to change this policy and our notices. The updates will be posted online. If the changes are substantive, we will announce the update through XBMC Foundation's usual channels for such announcements such as blog posts and forums. Your continued use of the product or service after the effective date of such changes constitutes your acceptance of such changes. To make your review more convenient, we will post an effective date at the top of the page.<br />

<hr />
<div>Do you need to '''contact''' someone from [[Archive:Team Kodi|Team Kodi]] or the [[Kodi Foundation]]? Like the majority of very active and mature open-source software projects which rely heavily on the generosity of volunteers' time and talents, the Kodi project has established a unified point of contact for public-facing communications, so those with requests for information or who need support receive a timely response from someone with the knowledge and authority needed to satisfactorily address them. For the Kodi project, that point of contact is at the<br /><div class="center" style="font-size: 1.33em; font-weight: 700; margin: auto;">[[File:Logo-transparent bare 256px.png|24px|alt=Kodi logo|link=https://forum.kodi.tv/]] [https://forum.kodi.tv/ Kodi Community Forum]</div>.<br />
<br />
All requests for communication should first be made on the forum, by starting a single new thread with a clear, concise title. You're asked to use your best judgment in selecting the most appropriate topical subforum in which to create it, but if you don't feel comfortable making that determination, it is always acceptable to place it in the [[forumtopic:228|<span style="font-weight: 600;">General Support/OS-Independent</span>]] subforum. As long as the '''title contains enough ''clear, descriptive information''''' to recognize the kind of response that's needed and from whom, a moderator will relocate it to the correct subforum in short order. All attempts to contact Team Kodi or the Kodi Foundation should take place initially on the forum, save those that require a high degree of confidentiality or that pertain to serious legal actions.<br />

<div>{{Mininav|[[Kodi Foundation]]}}<br />
<br />
== Introduction ==<br />
[[Kodi|{{Kodi}}]] is free and open-source software, meaning that it is generally acceptable for any company to use and distribute it as long as our license is respected. The [[Kodi Foundation]] does not charge any licensing fees for the usage of our product. A few highlights among the many possible uses for Kodi's featureset are listed on our website's [https://kodi.tv/about About] page.<br />
<br />
The source code for {{Kodi}} is open for any user or company who is interested in it, and can be found in our public [https://github.com/xbmc Git repositories]. We encourage non-[[Archive:Team Kodi|Team Kodi]] members to contribute to the codebase to improve general stability or expand and improve the overall usability.<br />
<br />
However, in order to foster a healthy relationship with the {{Kodi}} team, we ask that interested parties open a line of communication with us first. This is only a courtesy, of course, but we appreciate knowing where our project is used and the motivations behind it. We may even be able to help you with your plan! Examples of such uses that we are interested in being aware of include:<br />
* Redistributing the application "as-is" as part of other software or hardware<br />
* Creation of lightly or "cosmetically" modified versions<br />
* Downstream expansion of possible hardware support or the addition of major new features<br />
<br />
If you would like to discuss your project in more depth, please [[#Contact|contact us]] with a description of it and its scope with as much detail as you feel comfortable sharing. We are always happy to work with companies who wish to include us in their projects.<br />
<br />
== Legal ==<br />
Please understand that we cannot give legal advice regarding your possible implementation of our software. Multimedia licensing/copyrights/patents are very tricky, please contact a software attorney for help with these questions.<br />
<br />
If you would like to discuss one or more of these aspects in greater depth, please [[#Contact|contact us]] so we can begin to evaluate any possible concerns or thoughts for collaboration.<br />
<br />
== Sponsorship ==<br />
We also provide the option for companies to become [[Official:Sponsorship|official sponsors]] (shown on the [https://kodi.tv/about/sponsors Sponsors] page of our web site). In addition to the satisfaction of helping the open-source community, sponsors are entitled to some special perks as well. We strongly encourage anyone using {{Kodi}} as part of their business model to sponsor us in some way, though you are welcome to keep the details private if you wish.<br />

<section begin=intro />This is a list of various [[wikipedia:Fork (software development)|forks]] of {{Kodi}}. Forks are often created whenever a different group or organization needs to make customizations to the program. In some cases, these changes are minor and are made for the purposes of supporting certain hardware, or adding in special features. In others, the changes are much more drastic. The {{Kodi}} project welcomes and encourages forks in the spirit of the [[wikipedia:GNU General Public License|GNU General Public License]].<section end=intro /><br />

| style="padding: 0.6em; text-align: left;" | The '''[[Kodi Foundation]]''' requires that all forks of {{Kodi}}/XBMC must be rebranded, unless otherwise granted permission, in writing, directly from the foundation. In other words, they are not permitted to use '{{Kodi}}' or 'XBMC' anywhere in their name or other identifying characteristics/materials, and may not include the {{Kodi}} or XBMC logos, graphics or other trademarks. It is, however, both acceptable and encouraged to clearly state in a highly visible area that the project is based on {{Kodi}}/XBMC, though such a statement must not implicitly or explicitly lead a reasonable person to conclude that they have received any form of endorsement or official status from the Kodi project and/or the foundation.<br />

{{Notice|<br />
* Like nearly all wiki pages, this list is maintained by the Kodi community. If something is missing, feel free to add it.<br />
* Forks are normally considered unofficial and are not endorsed by the Kodi project or XBMC Foundation.<br />
* Please only list forks that follow the XBMC Foundation's '''[[Official:Trademark Policy|Trademark Policy]]''' and that have some notable difference from the normal Kodi install. {{Small|''(i.e., don't list your fork that only changes the Kodi logo into a pony. Unless it's a pretty pony. That might be okay. Maybe.)''}}<br />
* Forks listed here should not come pre-installed with any pirate/bootleg add-ons/streams/content, or otherwise make it easy to install such add-ons/streams/content (see '''[[Official:Forum rules|Forum rules]]''', which also apply to the wiki).<br />
* Forks listed here must comply with the '''[[wikipedia:GNU General Public License|GNU General Public License]]''', and any other applicable open source software licenses.<br />

Now after several years and innumerable feature changes there has been almost a complete redesign of the source code, however the skinning engine of MediaPortal 1.X.X still remains very similar to that of the original XBMC software making it relatively easy for people to port skins/themes back and forth between the two projects, something that is done quite frequently.}}<br />

{{FAQ|1=XBMC|2=What_is_it<br />
| Question = What is {{Kodi}}? What is XBMC?<br />
| Answer = XBMC is the old name for what is now known as {{Kodi}}. XBMC is still the proper name if you are referring to an old version of the program (e.g. “[[Releases#Release history|XBMC v13.1]]”), but since the release of version 14 (codenamed "[[Archive:Helix|Helix]]") on {{#dateformat:2014-12-22|mdy}}<ref name="helix" />, both the application and the project that produces it are named '''{{Kodi}}'''.<br />

<section begin="free content" /><br />
{{FAQ|1=free_content<br />
| Question = Where do I get all the movies and TV shows from?<br />
| Answer = {{Kodi}} does not provide any video content or video streaming services. If you bought a "Kodi" player that was advertised as a streaming service than you probably have been misled by a seller trying to make a quick buck. Kodi is a more akin to a video player, like your DVD/Blu-ray player. The main aim of Kodi is to work with video files you have on your own computer or local network (e.g. a file server or NAS). Kodi can also access online videos using add-ons, but these add-ons are almost always made by the community and come from a third party service/source, and do not come preinstalled from official versions of Kodi. <br />
<br />
While there are many legal video third party '''[https://kodi.tv/addons add-ons]''' and services that work with Kodi, be aware that some less reputable online sellers might try and bundle or market unofficial/unsupported piracy/bootleg add-ons. Such add-ons/services are not endorsed, encouraged, or supported by [[Archive:Team Kodi|Team Kodi]] or the [[Kodi Foundation]]. Please do not ask about services that are explicitly for bootleg video content on official Kodi websites, forums, or other support channels. For more information, see our '''[[Official:Forum_rules|forum and community rules]]'''.<br />

'''Kodi'''® (formerly known as <span style="font-weight: 600;">XBMC</span> or <span style="font-weight: 600;">Xbox Media Center</span>) is an award-winning, free and open source media player/entertainment hub application that runs on an exhaustive list of computers, mobile devices and HTPCs (Home theater PCs) which natively use no less than seven (7) different operating systems. It follows a [[wikipedia:10-foot user interface|10-foot user interface]] design specification which targets usage as a media player in a living room setting—or any other space where groups of people consume media without having someone seated near the player controls—using a handheld remote control as the primary input device. Its graphical user interface allows the user to easily browse and view videos, photos, podcasts, and music from local file storage, optical discs, the local network or the internet using only a few buttons. The Kodi project is managed by the non-profit '''[[Kodi Foundation]]''' and developed by volunteers located around the world. As of Summer 2022, more than 1,600 software developers have contributed to Kodi (in the form of 111,800+ individual changes to the codebase, which opened in 2003),<ref name="openhub" /> with roughly 60 core developers whose regular participation helps to steer it. Now, thanks to the generosity and dedication of over [[Translations|200 volunteer translators]], Kodi is available in 72 languages and useful no matter which continent you're on.<br />
<br />
Kodi® ''(then called "Xbox Media Center")'' was originally created as a media center application for the first-generation Xbox game console (no longer supported) but is now officially available as a native application for [[Android]], [[BSD]], [[Linux]], [[Mac OS X|macOS]], [[iOS]]/[[tvOS]], and [[Windows]] operating systems, running on most common processor architectures.<br />

=== Language support ===<br />
{{See|Language portal}}<br />
Kodi includes full support for many different languages by default. Kodi's structure is such that if the language is not available, or not up-to-date, it can be created by signing up at the [https://kodi.weblate.cloud/accounts/register/ Kodi Translations Project].<br />
<br />
Currently the existing supported languages are: Acadian French, Afrikaans, Albanian, American English, Amharic, Argentinian Spanish, Armenian, Asturian, Australian English, Azerbaijani, Basque, Belarusian, Bosnian, Brazilian Portuguese, Bulgarian, Burmese, Catalan, Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dari, Dutch, English, Esperanto, Estonian, European Portuguese, Faroese, Finnish, Galician, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hungarian, Icelandic, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Kannada, Korean, Latvian, Lithuanian, Macedonian, Malayam, Malay, Maltese, Maori, Metropolitan French, Mexican Spanish, Mongolian, New Zealand English, Norwegian, Ossetian, Peninsular Arabic, Peninsular Spanish, Persian, Polish, Romanian, Russian, Serbian (Cyrillic), Serbian (Latin), Silesian, Sinhala, Slovak, Slovenian, Swedish, Tajik, Tamil, Telugu, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, Uzbek, Vietnamese and Welsh.<br />

Full featured versions of Kodi are available on a number of operating system platforms. Team Kodi strives to keep a consistent feature set and include the full Kodi experience for all versions, even those on low-powered devices.<br />
<br />
=== Windows ===<br />
:{{Main|Windows}}<br />
''Kodi for Windows'' runs natively on Windows Vista and higher. It is a 32-bit application but runs on 64-bit Windows and hardware as well, however it is not yet optimized for that architecture so there is no performance gain when running on 64-bit Windows. 1080p playback can be achieved on Windows based computers either via software decoding on the CPU if it's powerful enough, or by hardware accelerated video decoding.<br />
<br />
=== Android ===<br />
:{{Main|Android}}<br />
''Kodi for Android'' is a full port of the complete Kodi application to Google's Android operating-system, was first announced and its source code released publicly on 13 June 2012. This is a full port of Kodi's C++ and C source code with all its dependencies to Android with a build-system that was designed to handle multiple processor architectures, like ARM, MIPS, and x86 with the Android NDK (Native Development Kit for Android) without using a single line of Java, and the Kodi.APK is running natively under Android as a Native Activity application. <br />
<br />
=== iOS ===<br />
:{{Main|iOS}}<br />
''Kodi for iOS'', which is a full port of Kodi to Apple's [[iOS]] operating-system, was first announced and released publicly on 20 January 2011. It supports both 720p and 1080p hardware accelerated video decoding of H.264 videos, and is compatible several Apple's [[IOS|iDevice]]s that uses Apple A4 or higher SoC processors with a jailbroken iOS operating-system.<br />
<br />
=== Mac ===<br />
:{{Main|Mac OS X}}<br />
''Kodi for Mac'' runs natively on [[Mac OS X]] with Intel processors with hardware video decoding for H.264.<br />
<br />
=== Linux ===<br />
:{{Main|Linux}}<br />
''Kodi for Linux'' is primarily developed for Ubuntu Linux. Third-party packages for most other Linux distributions are however available, and it is also possible to compile Kodi from scratch for any Linux distribution as long as the pre-required dependency libraries are installed first. <br />

== Pre-election ==<br />
[[User:Yol|yol]] served as the voting administrator, as his seat was not up for re-election.<br />
<br />
== Open nominations notice ==<br />
The following notice was posted on the Team Kodi private forum, and an e-mail to all Foundation members containing the hyperlink to it was circulated to give due notice about the upcoming election and the opening of nominations for the seats to be filled by it. The Foundation bylaws state that at least ten days must be given for a notice about member decisions such as an election, which in this instance was coterminous with the nomination period.<br />
<br />
{| class="wikitable" style="border-bottom-width: 3px; margin: 1.5em auto; max-width: 60vmax;"<br />
|+ style="font-size: 1rem;" | ''Open Nominations for the Kodi Foundation Board — 2022 Election''<br />
| style="border-bottom: hidden; padding: 0.2em 1em; text-align: right;" |<br />
:'''''Author:''''' [[User:Yol|yol]]<br />
|-<br />
| style="padding: 1em;" | It's time for the yearly [[Kodi Foundation]] board elections again!<br />
<br />
The board member seats up for election this year are: [[User:Keith|Keith]] and [[User:DarrenHill|DarrenHill]]. Seats whose terms are continuing are: da-anda, [[User:Ronie|ronie]] and [[User:Yol|yol]] (myself).<br />
<br />
The rules are intentionally unambiguous and listed in full below:<br />
* Any team member can nominate as many people as they wish, provided that the nominees are currently members in good standing of the Foundation.<br />
* Those members receiving nominations must publicly communicate their wish to either accept or decline the nomination.<br />
* Only Foundation members in good standing are eligible to vote.<br />
* Members may only be nominated once; their decision to accept or decline the nomination, once submitted, is final and not subject to later reconsideration.<br />
----<br />
* Please keep your nominations simple and direct. For example:<br />
:::<blockquote>''Nominate:'' '''<var>Member</var>'''<br />''Motivation:'' I am nominating <var>Member</var> to serve on the Kodi Foundation Board because: <var>supporting arguments</var></blockquote><br />
* After you become aware of your nomination, please respond with language to the effect of:<br />
<blockquote>Thank you. I accept my nomination. <var>Reasons for participating and goals for term of service</var></blockquote><br />
:::or<br />
<blockquote>Thank you, however I must decline my nomination at this time. <var>Explanation</var></blockquote><br />
----<br />
* The second post in this thread will be updated regularly to contain a summary of members and their nomination status, so you aren't required to read the entire thread to stay abreast of new developments as they occur.<br />
* The nomination period is '''one (1) month, beginning today and ending on September 20<sup>th</sup>'''. Actual voting will begin after that and will be closed after approximately a fortnight (if it proves necessary to conduct a vote at all).

== Pre-election ==<br />
[[User:Yol|yol]] served as the voting administrator, as his seat was not up for re-election.<br />
<br />
== Open nominations notice ==<br />
The following notice was posted on the Team Kodi private forum, and an e-mail to all Foundation members containing the hyperlink to it was circulated to give due notice about the upcoming election and the opening of nominations for the seats to be filled by it. The Foundation bylaws state that at least ten days must be given for a notice about member decisions such as an election, which in this instance was coterminous with the nomination period.<br />

| style="padding: 1em;" | It's time for the yearly [[Kodi Foundation]] board elections again!<br />
<br />
The board member seats up for election this year are: [[User:Keith|Keith]] and [[User:DarrenHill|DarrenHill]]. Seats whose terms are continuing are: da-anda, [[User:Ronie|ronie]] and [[User:Yol|yol]] (myself).<br />
<br />
The rules are intentionally unambiguous and listed in full below:<br />
* Any team member can nominate as many people as they wish, provided that the nominees are currently members in good standing of the Foundation.<br />
* Those members receiving nominations must publicly communicate their wish to either accept or decline the nomination.<br />
* Only Foundation members in good standing are eligible to vote.<br />
* Members may only be nominated once; their decision to accept or decline the nomination, once submitted, is final and not subject to later reconsideration.<br />
----<br />
* Please keep your nominations simple and direct. For example:<br />
:::<blockquote>''Nominate:'' '''<var>Member</var>'''<br />''Motivation:'' I am nominating <var>Member</var> to serve on the Kodi Foundation Board because: <var>supporting arguments</var></blockquote><br />
* After you become aware of your nomination, please respond with language to the effect of:<br />
<blockquote>Thank you. I accept my nomination. <var>Reasons for participating and goals for term of service</var></blockquote><br />
:::or<br />
<blockquote>Thank you, however I must decline my nomination at this time. <var>Explanation</var></blockquote><br />
----<br />
* The second post in this thread will be updated regularly to contain a summary of members and their nomination status, so you aren't required to read the entire thread to stay abreast of new developments as they occur.<br />
* The nomination period is '''one (1) month, beginning today and ending on September 20<sup>th</sup>'''. Actual voting will begin after that and will be closed after approximately a fortnight (if it proves necessary to conduct a vote at all). Once the voting is over, the results will be announced in this thread, as well as through a team email and on Kodi Wiki.<br />
* The terms for the new board seats will officially commence in November on the day ultimately selected for the joint online meeting with the old and new board members in attendance, in the hopes of facilitating a smooth transition and welcoming the new members.<br />

'''Kodi'''® (formerly known as <span style="font-weight: 600;">XBMC</span> or <span style="font-weight: 600;">Xbox Media Center</span>) is an award-winning, free and open source media player/entertainment hub application that runs on an exhaustive list of computers, mobile devices and HTPCs (Home theater PCs) which natively use no less than seven (7) different operating systems. It follows a [[wikipedia:10-foot user interface|10-foot user interface]] design specification which targets usage as a media player in a living room setting—or any other space where groups of people consume media without having someone seated near the player controls—using a handheld remote control as the primary input device. Its graphical user interface allows the user to easily browse and view videos, photos, podcasts, and music from local file storage, optical discs, the local network or the internet using only a few buttons. The Kodi project is managed by the non-profit '''[[XBMC Foundation]]''' and developed by volunteers located around the world. As of Summer 2022, more than 1,600 software developers have contributed to Kodi (in the form of 111,800+ individual changes to the codebase, which opened in 2003),<ref name="openhub">[https://www.openhub.net/p/kodi "The Kodi Open Source Project."] ''[https://www.openhub.net/ Black Duck Open Hub], part of Synopsys.'' Accessed on August 18, 2022.</ref> with roughly 60 core developers whose regular participation helps to steer it. Now, thanks to the generosity and dedication of over [[Translations|200 volunteer translators]], Kodi is available in 72 languages and useful no matter which continent you're on.<br />
<br />
Kodi® ''(then called "Xbox Media Center")'' was originally created as a media center application for the first-generation Xbox game console (no longer supported) but is now officially available as a native application for [[Android]], [[BSD]], [[Linux]], [[Mac OS X|macOS]], [[iOS]]/[[tvOS]], and [[Windows]] operating systems, running on most common processor architectures.<br />

<br />
=== Language support ===<br />
{{See|Language portal}}<br />
Kodi includes full support for many different languages by default. Kodi's structure is such that if the language is not available, or not up-to-date, it can be created by signing up at the [https://kodi.weblate.cloud/accounts/register/ Kodi Translations Project].<br />
<br />
Currently the existing supported languages are: Acadian French, Afrikaans, Albanian, American English, Amharic, Argentinian Spanish, Armenian, Asturian, Australian English, Azerbaijani, Basque, Belarusian, Bosnian, Brazilian Portuguese, Bulgarian, Burmese, Catalan, Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dari, Dutch, English, Esperanto, Estonian, European Portuguese, Faroese, Finnish, Galician, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hungarian, Icelandic, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Kannada, Korean, Latvian, Lithuanian, Macedonian, Malayam, Malay, Maltese, Maori, Metropolitan French, Mexican Spanish, Mongolian, New Zealand English, Norwegian, Ossetian, Peninsular Arabic, Peninsular Spanish, Persian, Polish, Romanian, Russian, Serbian (Cyrillic), Serbian (Latin), Silesian, Sinhala, Slovak, Slovenian, Swedish, Tajik, Tamil, Telugu, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, Uzbek, Vietnamese and Welsh.<br />

<br />
== Official versions ==<br />
{{See|Releases}}<br />
Full featured versions of Kodi are available on a number of operating system platforms. Team Kodi strives to keep a consistent feature set and include the full Kodi experience for all versions, even those on low-powered devices.<br />
<br />
=== Windows ===<br />
:{{Main|Windows}}<br />
''Kodi for Windows'' runs natively on Windows Vista and higher. It is a 32-bit application but runs on 64-bit Windows and hardware as well, however it is not yet optimized for that architecture so there is no performance gain when running on 64-bit Windows. 1080p playback can be achieved on Windows based computers either via software decoding on the CPU if it's powerful enough, or by hardware accelerated video decoding.<br />
<br />
=== Android ===<br />
:{{Main|Android}}<br />
''Kodi for Android'' is a full port of the complete Kodi application to Google's Android operating-system, was first announced and its source code released publicly on 13 June 2012. This is a full port of Kodi's C++ and C source code with all its dependencies to Android with a build-system that was designed to handle multiple processor architectures, like ARM, MIPS, and x86 with the Android NDK (Native Development Kit for Android) without using a single line of Java, and the Kodi.APK is running natively under Android as a Native Activity application. <br />
<br />
=== iOS ===<br />
:{{Main|iOS}}<br />
''Kodi for iOS'', which is a full port of Kodi to Apple's [[iOS]] operating-system, was first announced and released publicly on 20 January 2011. It supports both 720p and 1080p hardware accelerated video decoding of H.264 videos, and is compatible several Apple's [[IOS|iDevice]]s that uses Apple A4 or higher SoC processors with a jailbroken iOS operating-system.<br />
<br />
=== Mac ===<br />
:{{Main|Mac OS X}}<br />
''Kodi for Mac'' runs natively on [[Mac OS X]] with Intel processors with hardware video decoding for H.264.<br />
<br />
=== Linux ===<br />
:{{Main|Linux}}<br />
''Kodi for Linux'' is primarily developed for Ubuntu Linux. Third-party packages for most other Linux distributions are however available, and it is also possible to compile Kodi from scratch for any Linux distribution as long as the pre-required dependency libraries are installed first. <br />

<div>{{Mininav|[[XBMC Foundation]]|[[Kodi]]}}<br />
<section begin=intro />This is a list of various [[wikipedia:Fork (software development)|forks]] of Kodi. Forks are often created whenever a different group or organization needs to make customizations to the program. In some cases, these changes are minor and are made for the purposes of supporting certain hardware, or adding in special features. In others, the changes are much more drastic. The Kodi project welcomes and encourages forks in the spirit of the [[wikipedia:GNU General Public License|GNU General Public License]].<section end=intro /><br />
<br />
{{Warning|The '''[[XBMC Foundation]]''' requires that all forks of Kodi/XBMC must be rebranded, unless otherwise granted permission from the XBMC Foundation. In other words, they cannot be called Kodi or XBMC, and may not include the Kodi or XBMC logos, graphics, or other trademarks. While it is okay to say that the fork is based on Kodi/XBMC, such a statement must not be made in such a way that suggests any kind of endorsement or official status from the Kodi project or XBMC Foundation.<br />
<br />
For more information please see: {{Large|'''[[Official:Trademark Policy]]'''}}.|50px}}<br />
<br />
== Forks active as of 2016 ==<br />
{{Notice|<br />
* Like nearly all wiki pages, this list is maintained by the Kodi community. If something is missing, feel free to add it.<br />
* Forks are normally considered unofficial and are not endorsed by the Kodi project or XBMC Foundation.<br />
* Please only list forks that follow the XBMC Foundation's '''[[Official:Trademark Policy|Trademark Policy]]''' and that have some notable difference from the normal Kodi install. {{Small|''(i.e., don't list your fork that only changes the Kodi logo into a pony. Unless it's a pretty pony. That might be okay. Maybe.)''}}<br />
* Forks listed here should not come pre-installed with any pirate/bootleg add-ons/streams/content, or otherwise make it easy to install such add-ons/streams/content (see '''[[Official:Forum rules|Forum rules]]''', which also apply to the wiki).<br />
* Forks listed here must comply with the '''[[wikipedia:GNU General Public License|GNU General Public License]]''', and any other applicable open source software licenses.<br />

'''WORK IN PROGRESS'''<br />
<br />
<section begin="intro" />Ambilight, short for "ambient lighting", is originally a lighting system for televisions developed by Philips, however today it is used in reference to all types and brands of ambient lighting in the context where lighting is utilized to complement the light coming from your main display.<br />
<br />
Ambilight creates light effects around the television that correspond to the video content, with claimed a more immerse viewing experience can be the result if done right. Ambilight is a lighting system that actively adjusts both brightness and color based upon picture content. Integrated into the television cabinet, ambilight technology is aimed to enable the viewer to see more picture detail, contrast and color while eliminating on-screen reflections.<section end="intro" /><br />
<br />
<br />
==Overview==<br />
Ambilight technology works by projecting light from the rear of the TV cabinet in a very wide range of colors, shades and intensities. Viewers can choose to have Ambilight follow the color and brightness of the programme content – automatically changing with the colors on the screen – or alternatively the light levels and color can be set to match the interior decor or mood in the room. When the television is not on, the unit becomes a lamp, capable of displaying dynamic light patterns.<br />
<br />
Ambilight as a feature was first invented in 2002 by the Philips at the same research and development departments responsible for developing flat televisions. Philips investigated the application of LED in the home environment. This development resulted in a lighting system that displayed light according to a program (script) that has to be generated for all displayed video content, and which should be translated to the used lamp configuration. Movie directors could use a script to add special effects. The system was demonstrated using multiple light units, spread over the room. At first the wish was only to add (white) light units to the cabinet of the flat TV. These light units, lighting the wall around the TV, had to replace the table lamp often placed on top of the bulky CRT TVs. This development resulted in a TV lighting system (based on RGB LED) that reproduces the color and brightness of the content displayed on the TV screen. The concept does not require light-scripts, and is backwards compatible with existing video content. Introduction of this concept was less complicated because it only affects the TV itself. This concept was selected for the Philips Ambilight TVs that had its first retail launch in 2004.<br />
<br />
== Common types of ambient lighting ==<br />
Since the availability of displays by Philips featuring their Ambilight, there has been interest in producing similar effects for displays other than Philips which have this built into their hardware. Most commonly these systems consists of LED lights placed behind the display that face either to the side or towards the back and the light is reflected back towards the user from the surfaces behind the display. There are also systems where individual bulbs can be linked into the system that can be made to respond to system events.<br />
<br />
Simple systems may have lights that are all one color and cannot be changed or strings of lights that can be made to change color all together. More recent systems feature lights that can individually change color. These can be made to change in sync to the borders of the main display thereby 'extending' the light from the edges of the screen to the surfaces around and behind the display. Alternatively they can be made to respond to characteristic of the audio or music being played. <br />
<br />
== Hardware ==<br />
<br />
=== Bridge boards ===<br />
Most implementations utilize a separate processing board between the HTPC and the lights in order to provide low level hardware access to drive the LED's. There are kits available to implement this as well.<br />
