Could you build this?
No Porting Kodi 22 to a jailbroken PS5 requires specialized platform porting, kernel exploit understanding, and writing hardware-accelerated graphics/media pipelines without official SDKs.
What it would actually take: Requires building against unofficial PS5 homebrew toolchains (e.g., OpenOrbis or ps5-payload-sdk) and low-level FreeBSD-derived kernel syscall interfaces. The builder must adapt Kodi's C++ codebase to custom PS5 audio/video output drivers, handle proprietary GPU shader translation or homebrew graphics wrappers (like Vulkan/Gnm translation layers), and navigate system security boundaries on specific firmware versions.
