Hi everyone,
As Kodi is open-source, I can't believe nobody has thought of this. If Kodi is home theater software, why can't it be flashed on TV's, as the operating software? Sure, the hardware won't be compatible, and it won't be able to control TV features such as input amd Auto Tuning, but I suppose Kodi can be tweaked with an input button, next to the power and favourites buttons, and TV hardware could be made compatible. Auto Tuning options could also be made avaliable in the settings. I also understand that you can't flash a branded TV, as it can overcome copyrighting and warranty, so you can make partnerships with TV companies, I suppose?
I don't see why this isn't a good feature, apart from compatibility issues.
Could it be done?
