DicksToAsses posted:I'm currently using this, playback is perfect but the UI can be very laggy at times and for some reason I can't get it to automatically use sequential playback, I have to manually queue the next video if I don't want to be dumped back to the folder view. I'm looking forward to hearing how this works out - I'm using XMBC on a jb'd ATV2, and am planning on using 1 Pi to to run XMBC - I don't mind if it's sluggish as long as teh playback is good, but if there's a better media center available that doesn't have the ui issues that'd be cool. Maybe I should just get a half dozen SD cards and load a different OS on each depending on what I want to do. Is anyone using an HDMI->DVI conversion cable (like this one from Monoprice)? - I don't have any HDMI native monitors for playing with and this seems like a solution.

Who's running Xbian? I put it on my Pi and let it chug along and update the libraries (overnight) - but I seem to be having a lot of issues streaming even low quality (SD) content from my media share. The same stuff runs without a hiccup through XBMC on my ATV 2, or streamed wirelessly to my iPad (using Airvideo). I'm going to load up a card with RaspBMC and see how that does with playback. Or, are there any tweaks I should try with Xbian?

KrautHedge posted:Any word on which xbmc distribution is the best? I heard the recent updates made everything a bit snappier menu wise. I'm really excited about finally being able to use xbmc again. I was a heavy user back when it was just for the xbox, reluctantly switched to a WDTV once I upgraded to a hdtv a few years ago.

Dolex posted:I am having the same experience that you are, Raspi being lovely at performance. I got a Pandaboard ES and am going to check out how well it handles Zoneminder. Are you guys overclocking? I noticed a decent performance gain going to 900mhz. Im looking at using this camera module for a snapshot device on an elaborate mouse trap. Is any one else pulling images off the gpio pins? Or is it even possible?

Puddin posted:Whether I'm using my MS wireless mouse, a medion wireless mouse and keyboard combo, or my Razer wired mouse, as soon as XBMC boots to the main screen, about 5 seconds later, the inputs stop working. Edit: beaten. Also get a wired keyboard.

JerseyMonkey posted:Also, the SD card port isn't really damaged. The pins seem to be fine and as long as I taped the SD card adapter, it should work, except it still wont boot/read SD cards.

AgentF posted:I don't have another cable but I think I can borrow one and give it a try. This cable seems to work fine for connecting a laptop to the TV but maybe those are more tolerant than RPis? Sounds to me like the TV isn’t sensitve enough to detect the signal from he Pi. I had an Insignia that wouldn't see my bluray player on start up, had to cycle the player to get it detected. In other words the digital signal isnt high enough to hit the hdmi input detection levl of your TV.
