XBMC in an existing Raspbian?

P

Pete 11 years ago

I had OpenELEC on an earlier SD, but I never got much of what I wanted out of it, so the SD I've just built is pure Raspbian. I thought it would be nice to install XBMC on the SD to play with, though. However, I can't seem to apt-get it. I get:

Depends: xbmc-bin ..... but it is not installable

Do I have to build from source. Or what? Anyone know?

Thanks,

xbmc was renamed to kodi.

Thanks. That seems to work.

Looks like the original page he references is a bit more useful, though:

...especially as it notes you can't run XBMC/Kodi from X!
