View Full Version : Does the Mut@nt HD51 support full Kodi?
As per the subject title does the 4K HD51 run full Kodi? Presumably not as I can't find any information to suggest it does. I notice that the new Octagan 4K box does under OpenATV.
What's the criteria for making it run full Kodi. I suppose an ARM chip helps and some development requirement?
Thanks in advance
No Kodi on the HD51 and to the best of my knowledge not on the Octagon.
Nothing to do with Arm processor ................full Kodi is usually only on Vu+ receivers.
New Edision OS Mega has a Kodi plugin, plugin is Kodi 17RC http://www.world-of-satellite.co.uk/Edision/edision-os-mega-osmega

I'm sure in the octagon thread there was a post with a clip showing full kodi image...
Who, what and how is kodi added for a particular build? If its all enigma2 and Openvix why can't kodi run any box?

Hi, why does the HD51 not support kodi? I bought this on the understanding it was an Enigma2 Linux box and therefore could run kodi?
Where did you read it supported KODI.
Vu+ boxes have KODI

Nope. You are simply best using a dedicated box for Kodi, i.e. AFTV, Venz V10 Pro (awesome little box) etc

I looked at these
http://www.world-of-satellite.co.uk/satellite-and-terrestrial/digital-receivers/mutant/mut@nt-mutant-hd51
http://www.wetekforums.com/v/index.php?p=/discussion/17388/download-kodi-15-2-for-all-enigma-2-images
Looking at these I assumed if worked on all Enigma2 images?
I talked to someone at world of Satellites and asked about is as was going to get a dreambox or vu+.
That kodi is from 2015.
I would have checked before buying if KODI is a must for you. A lot to pay based on the minimal research you have done.
After all these are satellite receivers first and foremost.
As simple post on here would have given you the definitive answer.

Kodi really needs a dedicated box. The Enigma receivers are excellent at live TV reception from satellite, terrestrial and cable and are super at managing recordings and timeshift. Kodi is really best at managing your audio and video collection and high-end audio playback. I have separate boxes for my day-to-day TV stuff and for my audio/video handling - :trustme:
Edison Osmega for around same price gives you full kodi , the only difference is that is Osmega is not 4K compliant. The 4k is something of a non starter as there is very limited 4k programming.

Your buying into the future. Loads better specs of any Mipsel based box, I.e. ARM Processor, Flash Memory, RAM etc etc. Its not just about 4K content.

But you're not buying into the here and now. The 4K boxes have been out for nearly 6 months and they don't offer anything different? Not yet and as Osmega supports kodi it offers more now and the for the foreseeable future than the mutant hd51.
For example today I watched the 3pm kick offs on the osmega kodi build .The mutant can't offer that easily .
Plus if viewed don't have a 4k TV it's even pointless getting any 4k box.

Satellite STB >> Satellite/Cable/Freeview Viewing
Dedicated Media Box >> Kodi/Plex etc
Conclusion >> Keep em separate equals Far Superior Experience. Simples.

Eeeew, I'd rather not. What a horrible experience that would be. I'd rather poke my eyeballs with a fork followed by salt. lol
I'm for quality...

Only if 4K content is ever available. Atm 4K receivers are not really offering much more than 4K output to match 4K tv's. only some have specific hardware features like the Ultimo4k.
To me it's a bit like when 1080p receivers became available to match 1080p tv's. Most hd broadcasts are still 1080i.

Don't need to Andy. All in good quality. The go ones was sly 1 HD and 3PM were better then SD

Oh yes, stutter-free streaming and in 720p quality. The result was great too :)

Well I've had them all or tested them all and i will take a 1080i satellite broadcast over a 3mb/s 720p RuYa stream any day of the week, especially 3pm on a Saturday.
