    Show us your setup

    I'm mainly a tablet guy, but I just bought a TV stick to play around with.

    Through the threads here, I get bits and pieces of peripheral devices...like hard drives, USB hubs, cameras and other stuff.

    I started this thread to request users to share pictures of their setups.

    It isn't device specific. Before I plan my setup, I would like to see yours.

    I like this idea and will try and encourage the sharing.

    I've posted my home screen set up on my Imito MX1. I am currently using Sam's excellent TVLauncher. I have an RC11 airmouse for general control and a PS3 sixaxis controller for gaming.

      Thanks Daisy.

      Now, show some pix of what you have hooked up. The hardware stuff.

        Sure, but I don't think its very exciting.

        You will see from the below pictures that I have my imito hooked up to my standard HDMI port on my Samsung TV. It is taking its power from the USB port. You will notice a lead coming out of my mini usb port, this is for the USB dongle for my RC11 airmouse. I've got this dongle on an extended lead following a suggestion by another forum member that a longer lead would create less interference with the Imito's scetchy wifi signal. It does seem to help.

        I used to have my Seagate terabyte hard drive hooked up to the full size port, but you can see from the last picture that I have connected it to my router so everyone using my home network can access it.

        I would love to see some pictures from people who have set up cameras for their sticks/boxes.

          That looks good.

          I set up my system yesterday, but didn't think to take any pictures. It is pretty temporary, since I'm waiting on some more pieces to the puzzle to arrive.

          What I want to do is hook up a USB hub so I can use the wireless keyboard simultaneously with a USB flash drive or an external hard drive. I have a bunch of media files I would like to access from this device.

          If anyone has this kind of setup...chime in and note any problems/solutions you have.

          I've ordered a powered USB hub and an extension cable to keep the thing from always hanging off the back of the tv.

            Just passing this along also a general observation ... aside from the potential of stress to the otb / usb ports I think the dangling maybe better for the stick type plays as it helps with airflow and heat dissipation. Also I have found that my mx1 performs better with wifi this way due to less outside interference. I know these things are highly variable but YMMV.
