Available for download the new version LibreELEC 12.2.1 based on KODI 21 Omega. An update that adds new features and fixes.
This compilation LibreELEC 12.2.1 offers us additions and improvements in general performance, greater compatibility in codecs and updates in the system imported from KODI. In this version, we have more support for gamepads and other additional hardware. We have also improved compatibility with some current SoCs and made revisions to the user environment.
Remember that LibreELEC is “Just enough OS for KODI“. With this philosophy we have many advantages over using KODI on Android but also some drawbacks associated with its independence.
- For LibreELEC we recommend an Android TV-Box like the X96 Max+.
