For a better view of what this means, see the following video. In the future, long press may be extended for additional functionality. Now, if you press and hold the OK/Enter button for a few seconds, you will pull up the context menu. To deal with this, we’ve taken a page from the touchscreen UX and added a long press feature to remote controls. In particular, all current Android TVs are lacking a dedicated context menu button altogether. More and more hardware companies are coming out with remote controls with a very limited button set. You’ll also get a constant list of all recently updated add-ons, so if a recent update breaks, you’ll know the update happened and can then easily rollback. For example, when you scan in a library for the first time, the Event Logger will provide you with a list of videos that didn’t quite make it into the library, each one of which is clickable, so you can go straight to the offending video and fix it personally.

With this feature you always have a constantly updating list of all the most important things Kodi has done recently, along with little issues you can fix. The first big step in making Kodi better at communicating with you, the user, is the addition of event logging.

Kodi 16 is a heavy under-the-hood improvements release, but let’s review some of the more prominent features coming out. We are proud to announce the release of Kodi 16.0.
