Vero V and Kodi 21

Hi,

I’m new user, waiting to receive my first OSMC device Vero V (waiting for postman ;), migrating from NVidia Shield Pro 2019.

My question is - is Kodi v21 supported? Can be updated manually and if yes how to do that. If it’s not supported, is it better to wait and it will be updated to v21 automatically whithin update procedure or I need to update manually? In case that v21 is not supported - can be updated anyway and in case of any problem is it possible to downgrade version?

Thank you for answers which are probably stupid for you OSMC guru guys…

PS. I intend to use Kodi as before - only to watch TV and listen music provided from NAS and other network storage… On NVidia 4k streaming was really problem - I hope that Vero V won’t have such problems (network is gigabit with optic connection with converter and EdgeRouter router).

Oh… and another question. Do anybody know if NVidia Shield 2019 Pro remote control will work if I try to pair with Vero V via BT?

We will release Kodi v20.5 shortly (next day or two).

Kodi v21 will then be made available on the forums shortly as test builds. We will officially release an update when Kodi v21.1 is released.

Not sure about the remote, I believe it’s been mentioned before. If it’s Bluetooth, it will work just fine.

Everything else should work just fine for you

Any update when Kodi 20.5 will be released?

A few days :slight_smile:

Few days now become a few weeks? :face_with_spiral_eyes:

Nope. It’s still on time.

Just got announced another update on my VeroV even though I am already on 20.5. Is that already 21 or something else, as in the blog there is nothing announced and 20.5 ahould have been final release.

The update in stable was one final update to 20.5 to fix some of the playback issues people were reporting. Kodi Omega would be the new update in staging.

Hm maybe its a standard update then, no kodi version update … didnt find a way to see what kind of update or at least version its trying to apply :confused:

Kodi was updated. I will write some release notes later.

The release notes can be found here: OSMC's May update is here with a final Kodi 20.5 update - OSMC
