hi, i am new to xbmc and hoping to do my first mod just to run xbmc. i have been reading through different forums and instructions on installing it and i am getting a little cofused.
from what i am seeing samba works the best for streaming video to and from external network storage devices. but i was looking at some mod chip comparisons and it looks like most do not support samba? originally i was trying to decide between the executer 3 and smartxx but if they don't support samba then what shoudl i use? (http://www.xbox-hq.com/html/xbox-modchip...xchip.html)
(my purpose for setting up xbmc is stictly for streaming the video from other places. almost like using it as media extender, but i need the versitality of all the file formats.) :help:
