I'm sorry if this is a dupe post. I've been reading the forums for a few days and can't piece together whether this will work. I'm looking to buy a [used] Revo 1600 to replace the P.O.S. WD TV Live media player.
I have a WIFI USB Dongle that allows the WD Live to connect to my media server (unRaid via SAMBA) which I like very much. All of my media is HQ mp4 encodes of DVD rips so there is no lag even on WiFi-G.
My question is can a WiFi USB be use with XBMC 9.11 Live install? I saw on some other thread that a you must run ubuntu+XBMC to enable support for this setup. I don't think there will be any video issues since none of my media is HD (The WD TV does it fine, but I could be wrong).
I plan to run XBMC Live from a 8GB SD card for speed instead of running it on top of an OS. Plus I have other plans for the HDD.
Thanks
Oh side question, any difference in installing XBMC on a Revo 1600 compared to a AR3610-U9022?
