Hi guys,
I haven't posted on this forum for ages as xbmc is just stable and I don't have any problems to post about! Porting xbmc to the Raspberry Pi is great and thanks for all the time and effort you guys are putting into this.
One question though, all the demos we have seen are with HD videos which appear to be using the H264 codec which the GPU on the RPi supports by default ... very impressive. Given that, to the best of my knowledge, there is no native support for xvid etc. does this mean that this will be offloaded to the CPU and is the CPU on the RPi man enough to do this decoding?
From reading the RPi forums I know that Eben is planning to write a blog on what codec support is provided by default which may help to clarify things. But he is a busy guy so I would expect this to take some time to appear.
Cheers
Rob

@davilla:
How is the usb based remote control support on this device ?
The normal XBMC log IS NOT a debug log, to enable debug logging you must toggle it on under XBMC Settings - System or in advancedsettings.xml. Use
XBMC Debug Log Addon to retrieve it.

This device is wonderful and the power consumption is also very neat :-)
I was wondering if you could use powered usb-hubs to extend the max. amount of usb-ports ?
