Curious can MyGica devices be flashed with OpeneElec or Ubuntu?
I'm considering the ATV580. The specs look nice and on paper will serve to be pretty good Linux machine.

There is a Linux firmware for the ATV520.
If you want to go the linux route go with a Raspberry Pi or Odroid. They have a larger community, will be maintained (more frequent updates), and you won't risk bricking your machine by flashing firmware.
I have an ATV520 and a Raspberry Pi. The raspberry pi plays everything in XBMC and I do have some cron jobs scheduled to do other things. I bought the ATV520 for one of my other TV's because I wanted XBMC plus some other android apps.
That's just my opinion.

I've talked with support and they are within the next couple weeks updating to Android 4.2. The more recent KitKat (4.4) will be solely for their quad core version. I'll have to try the airdroid.
EDIT: Yup it works, just wish it would give me a folder view rather than all the videos at once. Thanks Saddie!

I don't think I'll apply 4.2. I really don't see any need to right now. The Geniatech 4.1.2 build is a little buggy in some places, but it's not unbearable.

Hi guys, there's this thing that's been bugging me for a while.
I have the mygica atv520E with latest firmware(20130920) and xbmc Gotham 13.0 BETA, and every time I play a 720p/1080p file, the audio/image are never synchronised. So I have to use the audio offset option, and I always offset it by -0.300ms and it works every time, so it's a consistent value.
I've tried different xbmc versions(only after Gotham 13.0) and a previous firmware version and this still happened.
Anyone else experiencing this?!?!
Cheers,
Verymau

Can anyone point me in the right direction for some tv channels and movie streaming on XBMC on the 520E? I have it working wonderfully with my linux server hosting all my audio and video, but can't seem to find a good source for the aforementioned. Thanks in advance!
