Macs can use the Apple TV remote, among others, for control of Kodi. An Intel Mac running OS X 10.7 (Lion) or higher is required for Kodi.

For everything else, standard Kodi pages will normally apply.HOW-TO:Install Kodi for Mac OS XSupported hardwareKodi is officially supported on a number of operating systems and hardware devices that are designed to be connected directly to a TV. Kodi runs well on what are relatively 'underpowered' systems, thanks to hardware video decoding being common on nearly all supported platforms. These requirements don't include what might be required for some 'advanced' features, such as PVR, which might require additional hardware.Developing Kodi for OS XTeam-Kodi (formerly called Team-XBMC) first ported XBMC Media Center software to Mac OS X in 2008, and the whole project cross-platform application was renamed to Kodi in 2014. Kodi itself is a huge open source project and it takes loads of people working together to maintain it for all platforms, that is why Team-Kodi is always on the lookout for C/C++ programmers to volunteer in assisting us with the development of Kodi. Whether you have contributed to the Kodi/XBMC project in the past or not, please consider doing so now.Supplemental tools
