3) will the firmware/software etc released by geniatech for the ATV1200 work on the mygica ATV1200? should I just email them and ask maybe?

also you say " Currently is the pivos-xbmc the better version, the aspect-ratio-problem is probably the most unpleasing fault. " what is the aspect ratio problem? and is this problem on the geniatech xbmc apk or the pivos xbmc akp?

Geniatech is the manufacturer of this boxes, there are similar brands on market, like:

-Oval Elephant
-IconBIT Toucan Duo Plus http://www.iconbit.com/catalog/minipc/ic..._duo_plus/
-mygica ATV1200 http://www.mygica.com/product.asp?id=165
-Homix HX1200 http://www.homixtech.com/products.php?pi...=12&cid=28
and others...

There they on market in different colors or cases. The firmware is always based on Geniatech. You can install the Geniatech-firmware on it. I´m owning a myGica ATV1200 with Geniatech firmware.

Aspect ratio problem: The problem currently exists in both xbmc versions. (Pivos & Geniatech) The display aspect ratio is the ratio of the width of a shape to its height - in this case is the video size fixed, the video is alway fullscreen - circles in cinema movies look like eggs...
In pivos xbmc you can edit the file attributes (as described in this thread), than you have to restart xbmc and the aspect ratio is correct. Unfortunately will these changes reset after box reboot.
In Geniatech xbmc will the same changes have without influence to aspect ratio.
