As it has been reported, Classic TV works fine with llama. So unless you setup the ESPN program wrong, it may just be a matter of that particular program not playing nicely. When I launch from Classic TV, I can exit XBMC from quit or power icon just fine and goes right back from where I launched the program.

@josefwells: I've experimented with a number of programs to piggy back and launch XBMC using Llama. The only one that seems to start and stop XBMC cleanly (95% of the time) is Classic TV. Horrible icon, but it gets the job done.

I am currently using the Amazon Fireplace as the sacrificial app and it loops around when I hit Quit. I use the Fire TV Home button to exit XBMC. The light on the Fire TV goes out after 30 minutes of non use indicating it is in sleep mode. Am I missing something in that XBMC is still running in the background when the Fire TV is in sleep mode?

Anyone had any joy with the Amazon FTV and Windows Media Center / Server WMC for LiveTV.
I have a couple of ION based boxes running OpenElec 4.0.4 and they can display LiveTV and change channels without issue. The FTV running Gotham 13.1 (download from Wiki) has multiple crashing issues. Seems that when you change channel you will more often that not exit back to the Amazon Home Page. I suspect it is when the signal changes (720/1080i) but I will verify that when I get some more time to play/grab logs.
Just wondered if anyone else was seeing this or whether anyone knew a more stable build with the FTV for LiveTV? At the $100 price point with Pandora and NetFlix it could be a perfect 'bedroom' unit.
Thanks

So is anyone here not having audio sync issues when streaming local content? I've been searching this forum and others to see if there's a solution other than adjusting the audio offset and setting a default that covers most of my local media. I have other videos where I have to make further adjustments.
I would love to find another solution for this. The Fire TV XBMC experience is far superior to the Apple TV in every way except for the sync issues. Is this really a common issue with Android installs, as I've read in other threads?

I am by no means an android or XBMC expert but when I experience the issue where XBMC was not closed properly is there a way to reboot the device from the remote or an android app I can sideload to reboot it?
Asking me to get up and walk the 8 feet to the device is absurd.
