ONLY FOR THE BRAVE!
Please note that there have been some changes. The job is now back to being called 'xbmc'. I recommend that you re-download all scripts if you are uncertain.

To be able to run Kodi builds on Raspbmc after the recent rebranding commits some things needs to be modified.
What needs to be done is simply edit some upstart jobs + edit the watchdog script.

I recommend that you backup the original files first (see below), this in case you have to revert and you for some reason don´t have an internet connection.
I have made some simple scripts which you can use if you want to switch between XBMC builds and Kodi builds.

The following will backup the original files + download the scripts.

Code:

sudo cp /etc/init/delay-start-50.conf /etc/init/delay-start-50.conf.bak
sudo cp /etc/init/xbmc.conf /etc/init/xbmc.conf.bak
sudo cp /scripts/xbmc-watchdog.sh /scripts/xbmc-watchdog.sh.bak
wget http://goo.gl/LWwLDe --no-check-certificate -O enable-kodi1.sh
wget http://goo.gl/G4EG8M --no-check-certificate -O enable-kodi2.sh
wget http://goo.gl/yUR9KO --no-check-certificate -O enable-xbmc.sh

NB!
There are sveral enable-kodi scripts due to changes in Kodi master!
For example, enable-kodi1.sh is only for Nov 02 and Nov 03 builds. I will keep it this way in case there will be more changes.
It will be stated in each build-post which script that should be used.

To enable Kodi builds, simply run:

Code:

sudo sh enable-kodi*.sh

Where * is mentioned in the build-post.

And to enable older XBMC or release build, run:

Code:

sudo sh enable-xbmc.sh

Please note that XBMC/Kodi will not start if you have enabled Kodi but trying to run XBMC and vice versa.
If you for example want to revert to the release version, run ’sudo sh enable-xbmc.sh’ + delete the .xbmc-current link.
If you end up with a broken setup where Kodi or XBMC does not start, don´t worry. Just run the correct enable-script and reboot.

---

NB!
The userdata folder is now named .kodi, but I included a symlink command in the enable-kodi script so you can more easily switch between builds.
But have in mind that if you run a Kodi build the correct userdata directory is now ’.kodi’.
And the log is obviously called kodi.log.

NB! Note that I have reverted and the job is called "xbmc" once again!

Code:

sudo initctl start xbmc
sudo initctl stop xbmc
