Ya podemos descargar el nuevo Kodi 22 Piers rc2. Esta versión Release Candidate 2 nos acerca ya a la inminente versión final que pronto se publicará en repositorios y Google Play.
Al instalar esta nueva versión, Kodi v22 Piers podemos ver que los cambios a nivel estético son pocos y parece una versión bastante continuista a nivel general. En todo caso, tendremos versiones disponibles para Windows en compilaciones 64 y 32bit además de las compilaciones para Android en formato ARM V7A de mayor compatibilidad y ARM V8A para Shield TV o similares. En los siguientes meses, esta versión irá evolucionando e informaremos al respecto con sus novedades.
