Hi I think you may have got a little confused with the database thing. To get openelec working on your pi and streaming films from ubuntu. 1. download an openelec pi image from openelec homepage load this onto an sd card see instructions on openlec website 2. boot the pi from the sd card this loads ...

I am interested in the RPi for exactly the same use, XBMC, but it seems to be troublesome for most. :? I am using openelec/xbmc version and am now so pleased with it I just sold my media center PC and am now using the pi full time. There are a few niggles (itv player slight issue) but im sure these...

Hi Got openelec running great but having problems with some xbmc plugins namely itv player,4od and demand 5. All seem to crash and reboot xbmc as soon as a stream is about to start playing. Has anyone got these working ? when I installed the repo's to get 4od, demand5 neither seemed to complete inst...

Thanks to Dom and everyone involved.

Very sad to see the end of xbian was my favorite early on, but now will look at the alternatives more closely. I would appreciate though if some things could be clarified a bit for me. The raspbmc installer appears to be based partly on the 'usbit.dll' referred to in the article published on the fro...

Has the fix for this been implemented in any release yet. In the last week I have tried raspbmc, openelec and xbian and all are still showing the problem.

Thanks

There is an android remote available for XBMC which they all use so it works on all. The only problem is it doesn't as yet have a keyboard function just normal remote functions but you would be better off looking at the xbmc forums for info and updates about it. to enter text using the android xbmc...

Hi Just wondering when a new version of xbmc is going to be put into xbian. I'm waiting for the audio problem to be fixed ref http://www.raspberrypi.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=14051 . Just want to know if anything will be happening soon ? Can't wait to get rid of my Media PC and start using pi ...

I think the same version of xbmc is used in all raspberry pi based xbmc systems so they all should eventually include this fix.

Total newbie here, but does XBian overclock the Pi by default? The xbian image is set to overclock by default. On a pc you just need to edit the config.txt file found on the sd card and put a # in front of the overclock commands this disables them and pi will run at default 700mhz. Personally I thi...

oh great thanks was just looking to see if xbmc had been updated for it yet. Once this has been confirmed as working in xbmc I am moving to raspberry pi as my media pc and selling my old antec fusion built HTPC on ebay, then reinvesting in a nas drive and some 500mb homeplug adapters. Then hopefully...

Hi dom

Tested with omxplayer and seems fine so the fix should show up in xbmc at some point ?

Thanks for your help

Hi I have followed the instructions and can browse to the raspcontrol page but when I go to setup.php and try to create a user it says "cannot open file" Any ideas? Hi I'm trying to get this running on a lighttpd server except I get the same error as urfankhaliq above 'can't open file' after trying...

Hi Just tried following the links through from jose1711 post and got a bit lost. Does this mean the fault is known by the xbmc developers who are looking into it ? I got to the xbmc github but couldn't find anything about it in there. or is this a fault on the pi which dom is looking at :? basically...

How do I access this program and try different settings ?

just been doing a bit more testing. Note I have switched to openelec and I'm getting exactly the same.

BadBoyBubby

Hi dom

thanks for the reply. What should be performing the downmix hardware or software is it built into the gpu function ?

I will look for a test video and try it on my system later today, it may be best if someone with 5.1 and 2.0 test it though to confirm.

Thanks

ok been having play around with the audio settings but no matter which settings I try speech in films seems real quiet. I have to turn volume high to hear speech clearly but when action scenes or music come on its way to loud. I am sure anyone using 2.0 audio must be having similar problems playing ...

BadBoyBubby

Hi I have seen similar problem mentioned in a few topics. I am currently running Xbian and I have the pi hooked up via HDMI to a tv with 2.0 audio. I assume the pi is sending 5.1 which is what most of my films are in and all I am getting is the two front left/right channels general sound is good but...
