[mythtv-users] [Slightlt OT] Mini-PC capable of playing

[James Buckley]

Just to add a bit more info, earlier xbox versions, (such as 1.0) can have
the memory upgraded to 128mb. Also, (I think) all boxes pre1.6 don't have
the overscan problem.

Hi

 

If you want to try xbmcmythtv on a xbox check out this Howto
http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Xbox_Frontend

You must have a modded xbox installed with xbmc which you can download.
Xbmcmythtv is a Python script which run under xbmc. I bought me xbox already
modded and with a less noicer CPU fan. You can also run the Linux
distribution xdebian on the xbox who has prebuild mythtv 0.19 package. But
be warned with a Xbox version 1.6 (the latest version) you get overscan with
the Linux distribution because the Xcalibur videocard is not so good
supported yet. The Xbox has only 64 MB RAM which is sufficient for xbmc and
Xdebian. The Xbox 360 have not been cracked yet.
