RPI has a very mature version of XBMC working on it, so you are much better off with that for your home media center.
BUT god this is a nice hacking project and i would love to see this being the start of an XBMC alternative open source project that is built upon web technology! Awesome!
- DonaldDerek 13y agoIndeed! Thanks for your comment!
- nivla 13y agoI hope so too. As much as I love my XBMC built, recent versions have been clunky and unstable. Competition is always good.
- camdykeman 13y agoCheck out Raspbmc. Its a rPi version of xbmc running on a custom kernel. The project is run by a student here in London, ON Canada. http://www.raspbmc.com/ http://www.raspbmc.com/
- bschwarz 13y agoI've tried Raspbmc and ran into all kinds of weird problems. As a result I installed Raspbian, added XBMC myself and have been happy ever since.
- synchronise 13y agoI tried Raspbmc but the buggy Airplay support forced me to switch to Xbian. Haven't bumped into a problem since.
- primo44 13y agoUh, no. Sam is in London, England. Well, somewhere in the UK anyway.
- camdykeman 13y agoMy mistake. I had been poking around the raspbmc site and saw that he was at King's College - theres also a Kings College in London Canada and I jumped to conclusions. Looking up his blog made that pretty apparent .co.uk :P
