For those who haven't tried XBOX Media Center yet, you truly don't know what you are missing. Albeit, some are probably thinking about their XBMP (XBOX Media Player), and if it aint broke then don't fix it. Being the noob that I am I was very relunctant to download and attempt an install, but I have to honestly say it was the easiest thing that I have done thus far. First, all my media that I already had FTP'd over for my XBMP was automatically recognized by XBMC. Due to it's scan feature there are no problems whatsoever. I just clicked on the scan button and all my media was searched out. The base skin is very appealing and navigation is made simple. Nobody has made an official manual however I have found some keymapping data to give you an understanding of how to navigate and control it's many features. Being that I currently own a Media Center PC I am very much enjoying the interface. I have not yet configured weather settings or streaming radio and tv settings. But, if the ease that I have had so far is any indication what future configuration may be like then it should be a piece of cake. I gotta tip my hat to Frodo and company, they did a marvelous job!

Yep I'll agree that XBMC kicks ass! Cool

The weather channel is weird coz you need some kind of code for your country and more than likely area. I haven't played with the radio functions yet but now I've got my 256k I might have a look into it...

Still have to look at XBC sometime too...

I've been looking for where to download this, but I haven't found it yet. Could you tell me where you downloaded it?

Thanks!

It's available from our VIP Download section, which I uploaded from the direct source of XBMC. It might be getting around elsewhere but you'll probably have fun finding it...

Just become a V.I.P. member, trust me it's worth it. So much better than scouring endless search engines and receiving no joy!

Yep!
i have to renew my VIP 7/9/07- Which im thnkning about going Full time- ah, what the hell- im gonna go full time..
I love XMBC- i thinks its really cool how you can FTP whit your PC and file share- I haveall moy Mp3's Movies' Pics' running through it to my box- And XBMC also comes with Xlink Kai- Which is a really good alternitive for xbox Live- and i just happen to have both (I have live on my unmoded box) I find myself useing my moded bow And Xlink Kai more than the real deal beacuse the connection throuigh Kai is better than Live, for me anyways. But i find myself playing Halo 2 and such through Live- You have ALOT more options...plus the ranking system is cool too!

Now I'm going to show that I haven't been on my Xbox in a while. I think Avalaunch has the Kai too if memory serves correctly. Confused

Evox is boring as hell, grab UnleashX or XBMC.
