[PARTLY SOLVED] ODROID-C1: kodi-standalone?

[Holzhaus]

Hi,

is it possible to run Kodi in standalone-mode (i.e. without X11 like on the Raspberry Pi)?

There is no kodi-standalone executable or systemd service. Any Ideas?

Thanks in advance,
Jan

EDIT: Check this out.

OK, there IS an executable named "kodi-standalone", but if I try to run it as root:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '[root@odroid-c1 ~]# kodi-standalone

Something is probably wrong')

Just realized that you can run Kodi via systemd thanks to the AUR package "kodi-standalone-service".

This still starts an X server, but I'm ok with this, too.
