    Kodi 17 Krypton Changes and Improvements

    Brand new default skins! Gone is Confluence and in is Estuary and Estouchy (optimized for tablets).
    Improvements to DVDPlayer, which allow for playback of DVD discs/files.
    Updates to videorendering and openGL drivers.
    Complete rewrite of audio/video syncing (less offset audio).
    Improved playback of live streams. Internal buffers no longer fill up!
    Input stream add-ons – Add-ons can now be written to support multiple stream qualities or camera angles and you can select this on the fly in Kodi. For example, a stream might be offered in 540p, 720p, or 1080p and you can now switch on-the-fly in Kodi.
    Kodi PVR settings improved.
    Full HD audio passthrough support in Android.
    Android 5.0 Lollipop minimum. This means Android 4.4, which is now 2.5 years old, is not supported by Kodi. This should give you a good baseline for which Kodi boxes to avoid buying online.
    Custom AMLogic Kodi code has been turned off, which is one of the reasons that Android 4.4 firmware is no longer supported.
    If installing third-party add-ons, you have to acknowledge that the add-on is not supported by the Kodi foundation.
    You can now view which add-ons have been installed or updated.
    Settings section has now been made more clear.
    Music library improvements – tag reading and scraping, improved artists handling.
    Tons of other improvements.
    wow i only have one box with Android 5.0 Lollipop am happy and then not on this one hope a work around

    tried it. Didn't like the visual features using pvr.stalker/win7pc.
    Could not get the guide data to fill in. only channel names???
    Think it is something to do with the .db versions required for epg xml file.
    will try it again if a cure is found.
