Abstract
One of the Tinker Board's most enticing features is its ability to play back 4K video. That combined with its SoC specs makes it a great candidate to act as a media player. Much as in our last project, where we set up the Tinker Board to be a dedicated game emulation system, we're now going to try setting it up with Kodi, a popular open source media center application.
