Been meaning to get my hands on one (or two) of them, but my current budget constrains blocks that intention...

lol, yeah I know. I know several other people tha have done the same as me. Thing is, too many old "project PCs" lying about already! Big Grin

You use Monster cables?? I hope you didn't pay more than Â£1.27 for that? That's my current record for a 2m HDMI lead with P&P. Tongue

No... record defeated!! :O

Heck no, it was a clearance item. I just had it laying about. Maybe I could sell it on ebay and buy another RPi with the proceeds :-)

Here's a little update to my XBMC plugin. http://youtu.be/Afqh2hgeR6s This video shows some new things including

- skinning and some functions look more like NextPVR
- show play vs resume
- record option are working
- some of the left side lists
- search with record capability
- channel groups (working) I am running a reduced set of my ATSC channels for this demo.

It is working on my Pivos and Cubox devices too.

Just running XBMC causes audio loss on my system and I don't know why. Plus, it locks up. I'm going to uninstall then reinstall again and see what happens.

Thanks Martin, looking good. This might be the kick we need to move to NextPVR.

Thanks for all your work.

If you want you could install XBMC (or Geexbox) live cd to a USB so you don't need to touch your system.

Great idea, I think I'll try that! Thanks.
