Can you not input text with the fire remote? Trying to install add ons, but can't enter text with the remote..

That's been covered several times and is in the Wiki: http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Ama...oth_remote

Does anyone know how to launch other apk's within xbmc? I thinking advanced launcher, but I think it's only exe and linux files.

Would be great to launch Allcast/emulators from within XBMC, without needing to out of XBMC, back to Fire, then when finished, back to XBMC

That's also covered in the Wiki: http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Ama...ithin_XBMC

But also, if you use a skin that has the ability to modify the main menu, like Aeon Nox 4 (Gotham), you can use the "StartAndroidActivity" command.

Example: StartAndroidActivity("org.hulu.plus")

This will let you add and start Hulu Plus from the Main menu without having to add it to favorites.
