I see on the OUYA builds there is the option to enable it, but it never shows up as an AirPlay device on my network. I know this is probably super low-priority so I have a different question. I've been talking to the dev of airtight. It's an airplay receiver app for amazon fire tv. He said it's being worked on and out as an official app in a few weeks. Hopefully. If not maybe someone else can get airplay working. I'll be selling my Apple TV when this comes out. Love xbmc with ouya build. Does all I need minus airplay. Amazon Fire TV for XBMC - ilovemymac - 2014-04-10 Does anyone know if you deregister the box if it wipes Xbmc off? I did mine gave it to someone and he is hoping Xbmc on it.

I'm interested in the actual power consumption in various scenarios (streaming, idle, standby). I have a couple of Raspi's which use so little electricity that I just leave them on 24/7 even when I don't use them sometimes for a week or two. They use like 3 watts idle. I also used to have a Boxee Box which never had a proper standby and always used like 16 watts. That bugged me. Just got mine today and checked power consumption of the Firetv. and during boot it consumes about 4 watts and peaked at 6 for a couple of seconds after that idled at 2.5 watts. tried playing a movie on xbmc koying's most current build and its about the same as idle. varies from 3.7 - 4 watts. this was measured with a p3 kill-a-watt. I gotta say I am excited on the progress on this considering its only been a week.

I also have 3.76GB free (perhaps if you are too low, it won't cache?). Re-tested SPMC 12.3.3 linked on page 1 of this thread (md5: 6d30c16903136ed35464e7b03f1d510f) and video playback was good. I just can't get it to be jittery by changing any of the audio or video options, aside from hardware acceleration. Have you tried XBMC For Ouya 12.3.2? I am uninstalling previous installations before ADB of the new one. Log of 12.3.3_2: http://xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=171145 12.3.3_2: Video and 2.0 audio played well. No surround options to test. 12.3.3_3: Choppy video and 2.0 audio played until it became choppy as well then the playback halted.

The spmc-armeabi-v7a_12.3.3.apk is installed and have the ability to navigate throughout XBMC. I am trying to figure out how to get XBMC to locate my Windows 7 directory so I can add TV shows and movies to the library. Any help is appreciated.

XBMC installed on the PC gives me access to these drives as the Fire TV does not. The easiest way to get it up, in my opinion: http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=HOW-TO:Share_libraries_using_UPnP This requires XBMC to be open on your PC, though. I am considering switching over to using PleXBMC. |
