Thanks for your feedback, amazon notification on the discussion thread really works... :)I recently upgraded the firmware to 1.9 (2008, August 26 version), and since then I haven't (knock on wood) had any problem loading the new movies (Iron man, Transformer, Sex and City, Forgetting Sarah Marshall etc.) You may want to upgrade yours too, and hope you can enjoy the Batman begins eventually.Xin

It runs HBO go it doesn't run Showtime. The Showtime app will not play through the HD port on any android. I don't know about the others. If you sideload the showbox app you really don't need any other movie apps they have everything you can think of streaming. Xbmc also has so much free content you will be amazed.I returned the box because the remote didn't work. I bought the Tronsmart s89 vega instead. It's not much more expensive and has better video. Freaktab. com has lots of information about this and other TV boxes.

I gave mine away because it was too slow. In any case after connecting the HDMI cable to your tv it should load the application screen. You may need to return the item if you can't make it work. I agree with downloading XBMC though. did not try it without it.

Yes it does. No problem running and installing xbmc add-ons . Mines not jail broken.

No not yet. Jelly bean upgrade is expected by this qtr end. That may open the door to xbmc.

Yeah they are exactly the same underneath the box. Only difference is gbox adds some repos to xbmc. But u can do that yourself

Yes, XBMC installs and runs fine in general. There are many different sub builds of XBMC available, however. Codec support for certain video playback is hit or miss. Some builds work exceptionally well , and some do not work as well.

This is an android computer, and as such candidates stream or play anything an android Phone or tablet can. You would need to check specific sites or if they have an app you can download it from google play store, your other option would be to see if they have or are in a xbmc add-on.

s crow is wrong on all all levels..this is a limitation of this matricom gbox..xbmc is capable of 4K resolution..I returned my matricom mx2 midnite and bought another cheaper box and I get true 1080p..could be 4k if my tv supported it.

It works fine and all u need to do is to brows on youtube "how to install sources on xbmc" after u install it from their site.

It's ARM processor running Android OS - so yes, it will run XBMC. Official install guide http://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO:Install_XBMC_for_Android How well it will run is question - if you have issues, probably not processor. RK 3188 should handle it easy - but poor internal WiFi may make it boggy & laggy
