Mediacenter epg10/10/2023 ![]() Second-hand XBOX1 with remote ( max €40).Screwdriver with a couple of tork plugs.Auto installer deluxe (4.5 or higher) (Download: ).UTP Network cable and network connection (wireless also supported).256mb or higher USB stick for the installation.Tabled or smartphone for remote (xbmc remote app installed).That is very cheap for a full hd media center □ If you have an Android or Apple smartphone (or tablet) you can download the “XBMC remote” app for remote. The hardware I use is a Zotac ZBOX ID41, 2 GB RAM (Kingston ValueRAM KVR1333D3S9/2G) and a 4GB SD class 2 card. The boot time is 30 seconds with SD (with SSD 5 sec) and the installation is very easy and I explain here how you can install the XBMC OpenELEC software. The software is compiled for all the common hardware platforms. I choose for OpenELEC because that is an embedded linux distribution optimized for XBMC only. There are official builds for OSX, Windows, Linux, iPAD, Apple TV and more ports still coming. If you don’t like to spent hours to tweaking the software how YOU want it please buy a product like the Popcorn Hour or AC Ryan that isn’t customizable.īut for normal use the software is stable and you will very often surprised by the tricks and the nice performance of the XBMC. I can live with that but if you want a very stable product maybe you can better look further to an out-of-the-box product like the AC Ryan.Īlso the software isn’t for noobs. XBMC is also in almost every language and the GUI for normal use is girlfriend, wife and kids friendly □īecause the software is highly customizable and it’s always in development you get sometimes some unstable situations when you change some config settings. If you want there are NZB and torrent plugins and you can download the software to the local disk but I don’t use any of these methods. XBMC is a media streamer so it’s recommended that all your downloaded music, photo’s, tv series and movies are on a NAS (network attached storage) device. I choose for XBMC because it is highly customizable and there are tons of addons, plugins, script, skins, fanart, visualizations. So I read a lot of information how to make an nice media streamer like the popcorn hour, ac rayon and xstreamer but then highly customizable. But nowadays you want a high definition media center and XVID and DIVX isn’t acceptable anymore on your full HD television.
