Download OpenELEC 4.0 Beta 2

The second beta of version 4.0 of the Open Embedded Linux Entertainment Center has been released. This Linux distribution is based on XBMC Media Center and can turn a computer into a full-fledged HTPC. OpenELEC is easy to install, maintain and use, as well as being small and lightning fast. In version 4.0, which is based on XBMC version 13, fewer versions are offered. Images are available for AppleTV, Raspberry Pi, and a generic build for i386 and x86_64 environments. The specific builds for AMD’s Fusion and Nvidia’s ION platform, among others, disappear. The main changes in this version, internally referred to as 3.95.2, are as follows:
