Max2Play Image Details & Changelog

The Max2Play Image is based on a Ubuntu 13.10 build (made by ODROID community) and enhanced with services that focus on a usage as mediaplayer. The preinstalled system needs just a little configuration by the user to get startet. The main goal of Max2Play was to transfer the control of the ODROID to your smartphone or tablet and therfore not needing keyboard and mouse anymore. With just a LAN / WiFi connection the browserinterface of Max2Play and APPs like iPeng or XBMC-Remote make it real easy to use the ODROID as a audio- and videoplayer.
