I didn't like this brand, couldn't find a good rom for this one so I sent it back.

I tried adding navi-x but it did not work, then I added mash up and its working great.

I have had no troubles with it hooked up to my surround sound and projector and have a 1 gig external hard drive connected as well. It plays anything I have very well.

Yes this is my primary use for the stick. I recommend going to xbmchub.com to help you with customization of the channels or follow videos on YouTube.

I'm using XBMC with a Linux backend, I use a hwplug option for sound and it works fine.

XBMC is a media center / operation system . So this basically saying that when you buy your SD card it will have already pre- installed an media center on the SD card

You can download xbmc in to the box after you set your wifi up. download the one for android, at xbmc.org

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

Hi J.J. Michels,Yes this is easy to do (see my instructions below in my other comment). On a side note, I have XBMC running on a 'Raspberry Pi' in my living room. This in turn connects (via sshfs) to my MintBox2 located in my laundry room (My MintBox2 has ~5 TB HDDs connected to it with videos/music/pictures/etc). In other words I can play the videos located on my MintBox2 via sshfs on my Raspberry Pi XMBC. This is all secured via SSH Keys so no need to login for sshfs etc. Just create an "addon" in XMBC for the sshfs mounting/umounting. If you just want XBMC running on your MintBox2 though (and not my Raspberry Pi setup mentioned here) then see my comment below. Hi J.J.

It is fairly easy to install if you follow a tutorial online such as the one found on mymediaexperience.com/raspberry-pi-xbmc-with-rasbmc/ With the 8 GB micro SD card it should have plenty of room. I am not an expert by any means but there are many great resources online to help you every step of the way!

Wifi must be high speed. To make sure I connected with Ethernet cable...As to channel streams, there are a lot. As you will choose. Just click 'x' (for xbmc) after switch on, and make up your mind. Hope this helps.

This is a piece of junk. Stay away from it if you are planning to use it for only XBMC. Go back and find yourself a 2nd Gen Apple TV.

Yes, I've got it set up that way, and it's working fine for me. I run XBMC, so I've remapped it for that, but before that, I tested it with the built-in Windows Media suite, and that worked out of the box.

There are some keyboard characters that do not function properly within XBMC. So if you want to type in XBMC I would recommend looking elsewhere. Otherwise it appears to work fine.

I've been using this box for about 2 months and I watch movies all the time in xbmc app, for me works perfectly.

I own this exact model and the stock XBMC distro from xbmc.org does indeed have audio issues. If you want to run "OpenElec" distro of XBMC, I can confirm that this distro does not suffer from the audio issues the stock distro does. I have this unit, running OpenElec (latest build 3.95.4 or something), and it works fine.
