I just found this thread been looking for something like this for ages. I would like to offer any help I can give on getting XBMC working on O!Play. I'm a fairly advanced Linux user and owner of the O!Play so any testing questions can be submitted and I will try to answer as fast and complete as possible.
Observations so far (using ACRyan topic as guideline to confirm O!Play compatibility)
- Filesystem is mounted read only, but the folder /usr/local/etc is mounted read-write and contains a rcS with gets executed on startup.
- By adding stuff to this rcS you can get it to boot at startup. Even stuff you put on an external flash drive (have to utilize a sleep to allow for mounting)
- Custom apps (I have FTP up and running for instance) can now be run from external flash drive on startup.
Ok, that's it for now. Any more you'd like me to test / share?

Since most of these new media players are all based off of the same Realtek-based player, the new CinemaTube would maybe be able to be flashed if the Ausus O!play can be?
This model accepts plug-ins according to the manual-

How easy was it to get into linux shell ?
Have you tried installing optware packages ?
Again, thanks for the tests ..
