Sorry if this has been asked, but is there any chance of a Kodi for xbox like Plex? I know that Plex was probably easier because it just looks for a server with media and with Kodi we need to manually add sources and add xml files for sql connectivity. Even so, is there any chance of a Kodi for the one? I'm not sure how you'd allow sql connectivity but maybe using upnp? I must say that Plex on the One is pretty cool, especially with voice control. The main problems I see are it doesn't indicate if a movie is 3d and if I play a 3d movie, it has long pauses, it doesn't have smart playlists (so I can categorize 3d and non 3d movies), and audio seems to indicate 5.1 no matter if I ripped the movie with 7.1 hd audio. Additionally, the Kinect seems to interfere with 3D playback, something they somehow dealt with in the 3d Blu Ray player.
Just thinking out loud, I'm guessing there is no way to add an advancedsettings.xml to the directory structure, so upnp might have to bed the delay to go.
So is it feasible or should we consider Kodi separate from consoles? I already have my htpc for Kodi, I just thought the xbox one version of Plex is pretty darned cool.
