Digital media enthusiasts can now install Kodi 21.0 “Omega.”

The headlining feature here isFFmpeg 6.0, which offers new codec support and runs every muxer in separate threads.

For some users, this should improve video transcoding and reduce throttling.

Still, even without FFmpeg 6.0, Kodi 21.0’s got plenty to offer.

Interestingly, Kodi 21.0 also replaces the Linux ping utility with a custom ping system.

Other changes in Kodi 21.0 are under the hood.
