itch VS Kodi Home Theater Software

Itch has their own app and so I presume they want folks using that instead of rolling their own.

Man, I can't even get the itch client to launch normally anymore. It just quits. This nonsense: here and here.

ITCH.IO: -Install Itch.io launcher: https://itch.io/app (just download and run the installer) -WORKAROUND: Itch.io launcher not working on gaming mode: https://www.reddit.com/r/SteamDeck/comments/ufr30h/itchio_app_in_gaming_mode/ -WORKAROUND: Itch.io doesnt allow you to install Windows games through Wine/Proton: https://www.reddit.com/r/SteamDeck/comments/tynrsh/installing_windows_games_via_the_linux_itchio_app/ -If you still have problems with thr launcher you can download the games from the web browser or use a PWA to download the games ans then manually add them to steam ans use some tool like BoilR, SteamGridDB Decky Plugin or SGDBoop.

Then, depending on the game it may not open unless you move it out of the downloads folder. You might also have better luck using the itch app: https://itch.io/app

Many of the games under the category of “web” on itch io arent mobile or browser friendly. The exceptions are the pico 8 games and the few developers that take the time to make proper browser bindings and use supported webgl. If they dont inherintly make it run with wasm, try this https://itch.io/app

You can download it with https://itch.io/app , then you can resume the download. :3

itch.io does have an official launcher: https://itch.io/app

Itch.io is cool, but I just installed Xubuntu 22.04.1 and now the itch client crashes on launch. That's almost a year old. Just recently I made a comment about how "if itch can make a functional launcher for Linux, so can GOG!" Well. Stupid I have to launch a program from the terminal and not be able to use sandboxing.

I prefer Kodi: https://kodi.tv/ It is free and open sourced and won't use DRM or phone home on you.

Nothing comes out on DVD anymore, everything is Video Streaming paid per month or year.

I'm having trouble using Kodi with my bluetooth headset since I updated to Windows 11. The problem seems to be Directsound since it works when I switch to WASAPI. Only thing I found was this Github bug report which is exactly the same problem I'm having: https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/issues/20567

Even Kodi-centred distributions like OSMC or LibreELEC do not have Kodi as an operating system but as a program that runs on top of an underlying OS. Kodi’s code can be compiled for many operating systems and platforms but it’s not an OS. There’s no need for it, it overcomplicates chtings.
