MK808B_digitopMod_v3.5.5 XBMC Edition (24 Dec 2013)

[rdsok]

I tested XBMC with and without the advancedsettings and both times it used stf-h264 and performance was good, so I don't think it's required.

I tried unplugging my mouse while a video was playing in Archos --- doing this closed the video, at least with the App I was using. Then MX Player has a known issue where the progress bar / play controls won't stay on the screen very long. There was discussion about it here in one of the finless threads... Must see if anyone had a solution.

To be clear for others that may read this...

On XBMC... it will depend on which version you are using whether or not an advancedsettings.xml is needed or not. On mine... justXBMC, SPMC and the alpha Gotham builds didn't require it for hardware decoding... the standard Frodo builds ( that weren't a hacked fork ) did though...

A wired mouse... shouldn't interfere with WiFi connectivity... A wireless mouse ( and/or keyboard ) can though ( bluetooth or RF )... for the wireless ones, I recommend a USB extension cable to get the wireless receiver away from the WiFi antenna's.

Other things that can affect wireless connectivity... 2.4Ghz cordless phones, cameras and similar devices using the 2.4Ghz frequency if they are placed too close to either your device or wireless router. As odd as it may sound... actually placing the device and the wireless router too close together can also affect the connection so make certain to have at least 5-10 foot of distance between them but of course not too far apart either. If they are too close together, it distorts the signal sort of like when you turn up your stereo too loud for the speakers to handle.

I do actually use BlueTooth wireless mouse that uses a dongle, but today while downloading a skin for XBMC, I could see the connection was just about as fast as my internet can go. The problem with Archos / MX Player is something else, really. Here's someone's video of the problem on MX Player http://youtu.be/5apIa_9R7Iw?t=2m8s and Archos is an even worse problem.

This Flumpster XBMC sounds pretty good.

No need for advancesettings.xml.
250ms audio fix.
No need to spoof device.
Cache set to internal flash instead of ram.

Should be able to get HW decoding on any rom with that setup. It's about time really.

i dont have a sd card at hand. is there anyway i can install this rom from a usb flash drive or the internal storage?

[phinc]

I see no reason why it should not work. Just copy the rom from a flash drive to your internal storage and in CWM, choose zip from internal SD Card instead of external SD Card.

install apk file

I am new to this. I have some questions. Here is what I did.
1. Copied the apk file to the sd card.
2. Unzip the rom to the SD card.

How do I install for this from the SD card after I turn on the MK808B?
