Florux 31 Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Hi, I'm a recent convert from Plex, mainly due to the open source nature of MediaBrowser. I was very happy to see a Mac version of MB Server, and would be even happier to learn if there are any plans for a Mac OSX version of the MB Theatre as well? In our house we use a Mac Mini as a server, and various other Mac Minis as set top boxes / Home Theaters, and would be absolutely delighted to be able to continue using these with MediaBrowser. Is there any interest besides me for a Mac version of the MB Theatre? Is anyone already working on this? Would it be an incentive with a kickstarter or similar campaign for it? Unfortunately I have zero programming skills, but apart from that I'd like to contribute any way I can. As you can see I'm very new here, so any pointers or insights would of course be greatly appreciated - thanks again for a great media solution, and for making it open source! -Florux 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefirstofthe300 291 Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Sadly, MBT is built using WPF which is specific to Windows at this point. From what I have seen, the Kodi (formerly XBMC) addon has had a TON of development so you could go the Kodi route without much difficulty in getting it running. There are even some skins built specifically for the Kodi addon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florux 31 Posted February 21, 2015 Author Share Posted February 21, 2015 Thanks - just got the Kodi client set up and it's really smooth! A few minor quirks to smoothen out, but all in all a very sweet solution. This is clearly my new favourite setup! Thanks much! -Florux Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
