KODI- 17.0- Krypton_rc3-x86_64.dmg Image not recognized
So you can't even open the dmg file and see the blue folder with the kodi app in it? If so - try to redownload the dmg.
I have downloaded a number of times with the same result. Do you have a link from a different source i can try.
Can you answer my question first? Still unsure at which exact stage it fails for you...
yes that is correct. i can't even open the dmg file and see the blue folder with the kodi app in it.
Just downloaded kodi-17.0-Krypton_rc4-x86_64.dmg and had no issues opening the .dmg (macOS 10.11.6)

Hello CouchPie, i just downloaded the .dmg and i am having the same trouble. it says image not recognised.
Hi caleb14: This is very unusual. Try the following:

1. Goto Finder and select the .dmg.
2. Hit Command+i to get details.
3. Check that the dmg has exactly 76.962.200 Bytes

If this is okay, you may verify the md5 hash:
1. Open Terminal and type md5
2. Drag the dmg onto the Terminal window and hit Return
3. Check that it spits out 566a847e82922b7624b437358dc2d61c

If both are OK, you may try to mount the .dmg via Disk Utility.
Thank you for the info CouchPie

i have checked the file and it is only 3,260,617 bytes

i downloaded this file from https://kodi.tv/download/
