XBMC

[featured_spectre]

I am building up a test bed for my XBMC and wanted to know if others are doing it for the RasPi, and what apps they are having

 

So far I have

 

TV Catchup (basically freeview catchup)

google mail

facebook

webbrowser

youtube

 

anybody got anything decent I could add?

tagging along with this, can someone tell me if they hook up an external DVD drive to the RasPi, does it get recognised...if so, I will be a happy man...TV+RasPi+External DVD drive+xbox 360 (for games only) = bedroom media heaven

On my AppleTV I have what you listed plus, Navi-x and Super TV, both 3rd party addons for XBMC

Super TV, very nice. Any more?

[JJonas]

@pooley I have XBMC running on a laptop, what extra functionality will I get from buying an Apple TV?

I also have it on a laptop but was thinking of getting an Xtreamer Ulta2 Xtreamer Ultra2 Announcement!

 

anyone had a play on one of these? Any good?

[pooley]

@JJonas no other functionality, just the ability to connect it to my HDTV and free up my laptop.

I will stick with my laptop then and use the Raspberry Pi when it arrives.

Same here, though I am adding a bluray drive to mine and mounting it to my tv (I've modded a VESA mount to do the job)
