I’m currently using Raspbian 8 with standalone Kodi installed. And I’m considering to switch to OpenPHT. Though I don’t want to format my SD Card and overwrite it with an image of RasPlex, is there a way I can install OpenPHT as a standalone application?
While it should be possible technically, I’d just get a second SD card to play around with on OpenPHT. That way you know there are no unexpected side effects such as library version issues.
It’s not that a simple 8GB sd card is hundreds of euros these days.
I find it unfortunate that you can’t install it as standalone application, nevertheless I noticed that Plex released a preview version of their new media player for embedded devices such as Raspberry PI. I’ve installed it already and saw that several commands like f.e. apt-get are disabled. Is it possible to extend this system? Because I would really like to run other apps than just Plex Media Player on my Pi.
