Следващата версия на Kodi {нещата, които не ви казват}

[Majide]

Телевизора ми дава, че има Kodi 20. Ако някой е обновил може ли да потвърди дали Elementum работи.

...
В интерес на темата, не в Коди 21, а в по-следващата версия Коди 22 се обмисля добавяне като основна (In The Core) функционалност за поддръжка на плейване на съдържание през magnet (P2P) protocol без нужда от съмнителни бинарни модули, като тези в Elementum. Идеята е да бъде възможно...

... UPnP lets you share your library over LAN, a core feature. Kademlia (magnet protocol) will let you share your library over both LAN and the internet with no servers or configuration required. IMO this is deserving of a core feature. And that's just the beginning of what Kademlia can bring.

Trust me, the hard part of Kademlia is the dependency tree. Once Kademlia is available in core, some amazing features are possible. I mentioned decentralized game messaging, but that's my myopic focus. With Kademlia, for the first time Kodi can share its entire library between peers, no servers or LAN configuration needed. As long as one Kodi instance is up, the media will be available. Web/app remotes can talk to Kodi, via p2p, without needing LAN configuration/discovery. You can even stream Kodi media to web/app remotes over LAN/internet.

Kademlia can completely replace Samba and NFS network sharing because it works seamlessly over LAN. You can have Kodi on a tablet, with your full library loaded over the network, and still be able to stream everything over the internet without changing any sources or settings.

I've always known the next evolution of Kodi would be through p2p technology. I spent the last four years trying to get IPFS in Kodi, but the dependency tree for IPFS is a nightmare compared to Kademlia. Kademlia is the path-of-least-resistance to get p2p tech in Kodi. At the end of the day, do we want to be forever confined to a client-server model, or do we push the boundaries with new technologies and use cases, overcoming our own blindness for how the right technology can disrupt an ecosystem?
