Kodi Media Center

Kodi is a free and open source (GPL) software media player and entertainment hub for digital media. Kodi is available for Linux, OSX, iOS, Android, and Windows, running on both x86 and ARM-based processors, including the Raspberry Pi. Created in 2003 by a group of like minded programmers, Kodi is a non-profit project run and developed by volunteers located around the world. More than 50 software developers have contributed to Kodi, and 100-plus translators have worked to expand its reach, making it available in more than 30 languages.
