Experimental PortMaster Builds

  • Starting from v0.2 Symphony, PortMaster will be a build target for XMPlayer, providing support for muOS and now Knulli, Rocknix, EmuELEC, dArkOS, etc.
  • .muxapp releases will still be available. .muxapp (muOS app) is the recommended installation option for muOS users.
  • Note that some features are still WIP in the PortMaster builds because of CFW-specific configurations. You can check the current compatibility information here.
  • Feel free to visit the testing threads on Discord and muOS Community Forum for updates!
