Available for download and install CoreELEC 22.0 Alpha2 based on Kodi 22.0 Piers, a new build that starts with important changes.
This new CoreELEC OS is available for download, a multimedia system like KODI oriented to Android TV-Box Amlogic exclusively. The most relevant changes in this new version 22 is the change of the system kernel and that it is already compatible with the old TV-Box with SoC Amlogic S905X, a very old hardware. We can test on our Android TV-Box to see if we notice improvements in this regard.
