How to install KODI in APPLETV 4K by Windows PC.
#1
Sad 
Hi
I installed  KODI by Impactor in APPLE TV 4th generation by using USB-C cable but APPLE TV 4K doesn't have this port.
I want to install KODI in AppleTV 4K edition by Windows, and I don't have access to MAC.
Is it possible?
Sincerely.

Think you need to have a virtual macos machine and use xcode.

try this to get macOS going
Install XCode from there and should be good to go

I already have macos high sierra installed on VMWare in my windows pc.
But AppleTV 4K doesn't have USB-C port and when you use macos in virtual machine on windows systems , your airplay doesn't work,so how can I connect my apple tv 4k to my mac on virtual machine?

 I had MacOS High sierra installed on VMware and I had Installed Xcode on it too, but airplay doesn't work when you use macos on VMware on windows systems, so how can I connect my Xcode to my apple tv 4k without airplay and USB-C port?

 I think it connects with network, i could be wrong.

Unfortunately, any kind of connection in VMware considered as an Ethernet connection, and It's not possible to simulate wifi or Bluetooth connection on VMWare for MacOS.
Actually, we don't have any kind of wifi /Bluetooth simulated device on MacOS.
Is there any solution for this problem? for showing AppleTV or any other device on "Window > Devices and Simulators" menu on Xcode, first we need to define wifi connection for Virtual macOs on VMware.

I could try tonight, as long your macos has local network connection same as your apple tv it shouldnt be any problem ( dosnt matter if it is wifi or not ).

I have paired my apple tv 4k with my vmware workstation mac os, you have to change the network adapter from "NAT" to custom and choose example "VMnet0" so i connects directly to your local network for broadcasting.

I don't have the option to select custom - could this be because I have a newer version of xCode?

That is a vmware workstation properties ( ctrl+d if remember right ) windows not xcode.

Nope can't get that to work either... so frustrating!

I am seriously thinking to get a damn mac lol

Do you mean you have oracle virtualbox? then in the network adapter settings it should be "bridged" network connection for your virtualbox.

Thanks @tabm0de 
Finally, I did it last night Smile
I have connected to AppleTV 4K by VMWARE on Windows device and I have installed Kodi on it.
Unfortunately, this way is valid just for 7 days for regular AppleIDs.
I don't know why Apple remove USB-C form new version of AppleTV and made it more difficult, installation of KODI process.

Is there any other solution for Installation KODI permanently, on Apple TV 4K  (without jailbreaking /without developer AppleID)?
