Already a great achievement! I'll keep a close watch for new updates and test the above again.
This is no good

Have you tried serviio ,it works for me, free too.

If/when SMB support comes, will advancedsettings.xml be supported as well for shared MySQL databases? If so, what is the game plan to get that file added? Is there access of some kind to the file system?
I am sure this has been mentioned earlier, but is HD audio planned at some point? I think I've heard that Microsoft still hasn't let app developers utilize lossless audio for not Bluray purposes, but I couldn't remember.
Didn't you just answer your own question?
Let it be clear. We plan nothing, promise nothing or make assumptions.
What works, works. If something might work in the future you will know when it actually does.
so I found the Kodi app in my Xbox store this morning is there going to be a new area setup to cover support for the new App?
I am have a issue with the Xbox finding my local network to instill zips from

Hope im wrong but none of all xbox apps can play 4k hevc, the only hope was kodi and if even kodi cant play it on a xbox one x, so i think the nvidia shield is the only aceptwble device for this

Same here.
I tried to play this demo file:
http://4kmedia.org/the-world-in-hdr-uhd-4k-demo/
The console crashed and shouted down.
The application is very very very unstable and, honestly, I'm very surprised that Microsoft agreed to put Kodi in their "app-store".
Wonderful work everyone involved!
Oh jeez just stop bunch of whiners. If it's gonna be like this I will split every negatively toned post straight to the trash.

If this is the case, Kodi shouldn't start to execute the files that are not supported yet.
Crash and shutdown the console is not a good thing.
So external hard drive access is not supported at this time. Is this permanent due to limitations, or are there plans to implement this in the future? Not complaining, just excited that it's available on Xbone at all! You guys did good work, as always!
I'm so grateful about this one... Thanks guys... I'd love to see some kind of background playback support (at least, a mini mode for background music playback) and local file system support too...
I'm donating now.... Love ya!

DAMN this is exciting!!!
I'm still in the process of building up the media libraries (NFS seems to work fine for my Synology & QNAP) and testing out various video files on my "original" Xbox One. passthrough of Dolby/DTS/HD seems to be a no-go at the time of writing, or has it to do with the Xbox One system settings for audio output? all in all I'm already quite impressed - maybe it was a bit early to release this Alpha to a wide audience (let's face it, the whole internet is going bonkers for Kodi on Xbox One right now, and rightfully so!) so a few crashes are expected, but as somebody who hacked & modded his original Xbox back at the old university days to get XBMC working on it (I even soldered on an LCD display and used a Dremel to get it fixed into the case for shits'n giggles!) I have to say I'm immensely excited and pleased by the progress the dev team & community made over all these years. If there's any chance Microsoft will allow 4k playback with HDMI HD audio passthrough I'll be first in line to get a new One S, even if it's just for the superior media player experience and some golden 360 titles I'm playing from time to time.
keep up the good work, excited to see the progress of the UWP Kodi in 2018!
