I’ve just been reading up on binary addons, and thought I’d throw a general question out there:
Any possibility of including additional binary addons for tools that are used for emulators / ROMs?
The items I’m thinking of currently:
7zip / rar / other compressed file formats. Lots of game files are archived. Some formats Kodi already supports, some aren’t. Some emulators support it, some don’t. It would be helpful for addon developers if there were binary addon(s) we could utilize. I believe LibreElec I believe already has an addon for p7zip.
MAME tools, various tools used for doing things to MAME roms. Specifically, CHDMAN is the one I’ve used in the past.
I’m sure there are others people use that I’m not thinking of, but off the top of my head those are the two that come to mind.
