Hello!

How are you?

 

I have OPI PC PLUS running ubuntu xenial desktop. I want to use it how pc / thin client. Is it possible OPI runs youtube videos?

I tried run youtube from Firefox and Chromium but without good quality.

After reads some opi foruns, seem possible run videos with Kodi or Openelec. 

I did install kodi:

 

sudo apt-get install kodi

 

The instalation is ok, but when I try run Kodi, it does not works, give me only errors.

I read too that Openelec can be good than Kodi in OPI.

I need to install some media player service that runs together ubuntu xenial and not only how OPI station media player because I want work OPI how pc station. 

 

I can not install openelec, because I do not see good tutorial to try install it

 

Sorry my English

 

Thanks help and attention

 

 

 

We don't deal with KODI whatsoever and AFAIK you need to fix lot's of things so better stick to Openelec. It can't be more simple that that.

 

You can watch videos and Youtube videos with HW acceleration within Armbian desktop (A10/A20/H3) but not within any browser. Preinstalled mpv only.
