A new development release of the LibreELEC open-source operating system for Raspberry Pi and similar embedded devices has been unveiled recently, versioned 7.95.1 Beta. LibreELEC lets you transform a Raspberry Pi into an HTPC.

Based on the just-released third RC (Release Candidate) build of the upcoming Kodi 17 “Krypton” open-source media center and powered by the Linux 4.9.3 kernel, LibreELEC 7.95.1 Beta updates the Linux kernel support patches for Raspberry Pi SBCs, and adds UDL driver support to Raspberry Pi and  Raspberry Pi 2 projects.

The new Beta version also updates the LibreELEC settings to version 0.8.7, but there’s no news on the improvements implemented in this build.
