Hello everyone and forgive me for being a novice... I am interested in international tv.. Mostly from Sweden and Norway and will the Netherlands.. I have an xbox 360 and spent the last few hours trying to learn to use the XBMC thinking I could simply put it on my xbox 360 and be able to stream tv from Sweden.. Well.. after I got it already to put it on the xbox.. I am not sure I can.. I am new to this. I would like to know if I need to first make a mod to it, or if I can install it from a disc.. I have read yes, and I have read no, it will not work that way.. So, I need your help.. Please let me know what you think and feel free to direct email me.. I think xbmc is really cool.. I was trying to find a smart box to do the same thing when I found the xbme

XBMC does not run on Xbox 360. Long long ago it used to run on the original Xbox, but officially it does not even run on that anymore.
Instead, you will need a mini PC or small ARM box to run XBMC on your TV. I suggest looking in the hardware sub-forum:

Wow,, that was fast... thank you.. Well, I was going to buy a streaming tv boxee.. But I have the xbox 360 already so I thought it was worth a try.. I use it to watch movies with, as I do not really game.. It was a fun time setting up xbmc.. I kept having to replay the youtube instructions as they go so fast.. Thanks again..

If you can get a Boxee for a good price, say under $100 USD, then it's likely a good deal. Plus, you can install XBMC on it :)

Yes, I was thinking of the WD live tv plus... It is somewhat versatile I think..
