Changelog
Input
Reverted a number of controller changes that caused massive failures on Android devices. Input handling will now be the same as what was available in 20.3.
Android
Some great detective work was done by @spdfrk for a fix that meant Kodi would close the app during potential colour mode changes.
A backport by @fritsch that intends to bring Nexus inline with Omega behaviour for AudioTrack on Android. This means that some device users will need to add an extra setting to their AdvancedSettings.xml file. Details can be seen at https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/24729.
Linux
Branding colours have been added to the metainfo file so that they can be used by things like the Flathub store. Info about this can be seen at the Flathub blog post https://docs.flathub.org/blog/introducing-app-brand-colors/.
iOS/tvOS
A change that wasn’t actually in Kodi’s codebase, but a fix nonetheless, means that the inputstream.ffmpegdirect addon is now available to the iOS/tvOS release debs.
