Linux XBMC for square box (beta) - Gotham 13.1

[tampametal]

Any updates on the new version?

Nope but believe me this will be like the first place he comes to announce release other than his website.

Hi,

I made M8 Linux XBMC build for EM8 box (with AP6330 wifi, not sure if there are boxes with other wifi, in worst case wifi will not work for you).

Bugs:

• Bootlogo and splashscreens (booting up/shutting down) are not shown
• 720p and 1080i/1080p resolutions work for sure, however I'm pretty sure 4k output will not work at all or will not work correctly
• When network connected via cable MAC address is picked randomly so on each reboot box will have different MAC address and IP address assigned by router. This means that router's DHCP pool might fill up quickly if there are many reboots.
• for you to tell

Download: Link

Install via Update application in android or from recovery menu by selecting downloaded zip.

BE NOTED: This Linux firmware is for EM8 box ONLY. It will upgrade bootloader on box so it will output default resolution on HDMI 720p instead of 1080p

Cheers,

Stane would it be possible to have a gui more like the Linux invironmemt armada boxes use now?

I think what stane has been working on will be even better so I'll wait for his release

[tampametal]

I may be wrong but I believe stanes will just boot straight into xbmc. The other has a gui interface but id love to see something like that from stane
