Hi,
I have successfully installed XBMC on my son's PI, but because he's using that for other school projects it's not always running. I have previously used Twonky on my Buffalo Terastation NAS and I am curious as to whether this ARM based NAS is sufficient to run XBMC instead? Twonky fails to scan the folders for new content, so I'm looking for something much more up to date and efficient and I think XBMC fits the bill.
I can't seem to find any installation instructions for an NAS with ARM based processor - has anyone successfully installed XBMC onto a Terastation / Livestation NAS who can offer any advice on where to get started? I don't need any form of media transcoding as I'll ensure that my videos are .m4a and audio 320k .mp3 or .flac. Playback will primarily be on a Panasonic 65" VT Plasma via it's Media Server app.
Many thanks in advance. All help gratefully received.
Pete
