Hi All,
I resisted a FTV for a while as I didn't want an import and amazon have not shafted us Brits with the exchange rate for once.
The FTV is out in the UK in a couple of weeks and before I pre-order I wanted to check all would be ok for XBMC.
I plan to use it for XBMC, mainly LAN movie and tv playback (xvid/x264) and emulator games ideally through RCB so everything is in once place.
Couple Questions:
I know that the latest firmware have not been rooted so I will have to sideload XBMC. USB hard drives arent an issue as I will connect it to my LAN, is that the only real 'great' thing about root and xbmc?
Can you boot directly to XBMC? or at least make it easier to open XBMC without having to "settings, apps, (navigate for xbmc) launch xmbc).
What about refresh rates etc, is that anything to be concerned about?
