So I was wondering would you guys recommend this box for someone who never used XBMC before and what is the general consensus here in regards to the recommended software setup for this box? It is difficult to keep track of all different software combinations that has been posted, so what works best?
Hey. Yes we could do with multiple threads to address multiple issues. It is a mine of info now this thread, but requires some digging.
To answer your question I would totally recommend this box (I have the Sumvision model) as I have now replaced an HTPC in my sitting room with this box. I'm single and watch around 25 shows a week plus some re-runs and movies so it gets a good work out.
I've posted an update recently on the previous page and as per that detail, the most recent firmware with ethernet patch has proven to be near flawless for me.
At only £60 it is totally worth a shot imo. The people here seem happy to help each other too, so if you get stuck you can always ask.
