This is my first go with XBMC, I was really excited about it but have run into nothing but problems.
I am running xbmcubuntu on a zotac zbox. When I installed it, videos worked but other stuff didn't. As I was figuring out the other stuff, like adding a browser which I cant figure out, or netflix, it seems that now nothing works. Everytime i click on anything to run such as an addon video or my music or video collection, it gives a black screen for a minute and then goes to the home screen where it says downloading tv information scanning for new content. and the video never plays. I assume thats xbmc crashing.
I am about to reformat and redo the whole thing so that the videos will work again. It's the only thing i can think of. Any suggestions? Thanks! I also don't know how to boot into ubuntu like I've read people talk about. When I press the key, it asks for a password that i dont have or can't figure out.
Any help would be much appreciated.
