Download Kodi 17.4 Final Version For Android, iOS, Windows And Other Devices

You can now download Kodi 17.4 APK final version for Android, iOS, Windows, Mac and all other supported platforms. Here are the details.

It’s easy to forget with all the iPhone 8 noise that there is a whole world of technology out there and that it continues to revolve just as it always has. Part of that world is the ever popular media center software Kodi and it has today received a new update in which bug fixes are very much the order of the day.

Kodi is famous the world over for the Kodi boxes that have caused such a kerfuffle with law enforcement and the courts during which add-ons have been placed under ever increasing scrutiny. It is very important to remember that Kodi itself is perfectly legal and on top of that is a damn fine way of organizing and playing back all kinds of media, no matter where it happens to come from. With that in mind, it is always great news to hear that the folks behind Kodi have been hard at work on a new release, and today we lean of Kodi 17.4’s release to the public after having multiple nightly and a single release candidate build.

While Kodi’s developers are already hard at work on the next major release, Kodi v18, work continues on bug fixes for existing releases like Krypton regardless. That’s great news for Kodi users, and this new release brings with it a bunch of fixes that may just squash any bugs you were experiencing before today. We heartily recommend updating ASAP, as always.

So what’s been fixed this time around? According to Kodi:

Fixes done in this release:

Potentially fix crashing on Windows due to an issue in Python

Potentially fix crashing on Windows when enabling zeroconf

Fix sporadic crash on Windows when installing or updating add-ons

Fix issue for users with reverse proxies attempting to forward websockets.

Fix possible issue if Linux distro uses system ffmpeg and cause black screen with 10-bit H.265

Properly throttle scraping music information online to prevent overloading the provider

Fix native keyboard on iOS 11

Fix potential crash on Android O loading App icons

Fix non showing Kodi banner on Android O

Fix potential crash on Android with certain keymaps

Fix wrong detection of VP6 and VP8 videocodec on Android

Update FFmpeg to 3.1.9

Set hard requirement to use FFmpeg 3.1.x only

Fix for Hangup when viewing recording and pressing next/previous

Fix merged scraped album type and label correctly with that derived from tags from music files

Fix possible crash on Linux when using ALSA

Save skin settings immediately after they have changed instead of only on shutdown

There is plenty there and we hope any issues you have hit in the past are rectified following the installation of Kodi v17.4. If not, hey, there’s always next time!
