If you are considering putting your toe in the water as far as Kodi is concerned, then the new FreeTelly program for Mac or PC is probably the way to go. Kodi is a 'free' and open source program maintained by a team of enthusiasts. freeTelly is based on Kodi and comes with numerous addons all pre installed.
I first got into Kodi because my WDTV Media player was unable to keep up with new file formats I wanted to use and could be laborious to maintain.
Kodi (FreeTelly) will play any file format possible and the gathering of information about a movie or TV episode is pretty well automatic. It then presents it all on the TV screen with a further incredible range of options. Not only does it allow you to watch your own 'acquired' movies and TV Shows, it will also go online and stream virtually everything, either TV Show or Movie that you can possibly think of straight onto your wide screen TV in your lounge room.
For example the last few nights we are having some great crime night TV. Both series we are enjoying rank in the top 20 or so TV series ever made. They are both older series but excellent TV shows. I have 'acquired' the full series of files of "Wire In The Blood" and we are streaming the top rating "The Wire". Not only are the copies of the streamed 'The Wire' great to watch, but they are widescreen and great quality.
FreeTelly is a pre loaded Windows or Mac PC version of Kodi. You can install it on your computer, connect you computer via an HDMI lead to a spare port on your TV and run it. With a little bit of tweaking it will be great. I have added a page to one of my websites with all the links and the tweaks. You can check it out HERE.
It has the best addons pre installed but really "Exodus" is the only addon you need! Give it a go.
The Hyundai Sonata is back with a nicely painted front bumper. All the stone chips have been fixed and the car is back in great condition again.
I am using the 'new' 24" monitor which arrived just after lunch today. I can't get over how light the weight of the screen is. It seems so thin being LED. The flickery previous screen was LCD. It is really great to have a big screen back again.
Kate, Arj and family are driving across the U.S. Last we heard they were in New Orleans and you can read Arj's report here. The pic below shows the route they are taking and their planned stops. It is another 'once in a lifetime' experience for them all.
