I've just done an installation on an Android quad core box, and I found the easiest way to proceed, after loading XBMC from http://xbmc.org, was to load Fusion (google 'fusion xbmc'). That in turn will automatically load most of the addons needed. It will update XBMC to a customised 'xbmchub', which makes a wide range of extras available. I was able to easily find an on demand version of the Everton vs Swans game to play. Take a look here:

http://www.xbmchub.com/

No doubt there are many ways to set up a system. Another one that saves you the trouble of loading the addons individually is xbmctalk (Xfinity). There are tutorials for both on Youtube. I think Mashup is probably only on Xfinity, but I quite liked xmbchub and the support website seems very good.

I think xbmchub is best to help with set up especially for newbies. Mash up is not part of xfinity any more it's a separate source

I have just watched Cavemen and now Return on the Jedi. On the big screen it is like having your own 12 screen cinema.

Installed iStream last night.....really good so thanks for that.

Found the overlay a little intrusive so changed changed the theme back and can run it as a video add on. Thanks again for that suggestion. This thread is gold.

be careful if you jail break your ipad. certain apps will not work after you do that, sky go for one. do some googling first in case you have affected apps and check out possible solutions

Buy something called Raspberry Pi if you have a bit of technical knowledge (even if you don't it's not that difficult if you follow tutorials). Cheaper than these boxes and will run XBMC perfectly.

I have two running, one downstairs and one upstairs and both linked to my PC which I use as a server to stream films I have on hard drives via UPNP.

I would, but you'd only forget I was coming round

It's easy. I had my 5 year old daughter using it last night.

As a cheap and cheerful solution for XBMC it can't be beat. Brilliant piece of kit. Got two myself now. If you aren't using XBMC though it's no use as a media centre.

Agree, great piece of kit. There's an XBMC Iphone app that works much better than any remote I've used, free as well, called xbmcRemote.

I used one of the Navi x links earlier and was 6 seconds behind the actual broadcast on Sky and ITV channels.

Ok. Fellow geeks i need your help.

Today I've set this up using a pi, an sd card etc. all this was done using an Ethernet cable. I also bought a USB wifi dongle

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Edimax-EW-7811UN-150Mbps-Wireless-Adapter/dp/B003MTTJOY/

The remote on my phone works when the Ethernet is in. Take the Ethernet out and try to run using wifi, nothing. No xbmc or remote.

I plugged the USB into the laptop earlier to configure it etc and it says it's working fine. When it's in the pi it's flashing blue like it's working but nothing.

Help!
