This is just another operating system for KodiThis is just another operating system for [[Kodi]]. Opinion: OSMC is better than LibreELEC for ''traditionalists'' that just want a LAN or local drive media player on their TV (no streaming.)  But sadly, it is still Kodi and suffers from design idiocy inherent to Kodi. How it is different from LibreELEC is that it provides a more stripped down clean version of Kodi with less clutter and less CPU intensive. For example, the video file menu does not try to pull down sources video covers and name amalgamations.  This is preferred for people that wish to show literal filename representation and just keep things simple.   TIP: For GUI nav it is recommended to disable MOUSE and TOUCH SCREEN option - it seems to cause problems if you intend to navigate primarily via keyboard.  (''when you bump the mouse or it thinks it was moved your control goes wonky'') ... Just kill the mouse or unplug the thing.Mapping video file locations on a LAN, SMB, aka Windows Shares.
