xbmc installation help

[rpiaunon]

Hi folks,

I was given a raspberryPI (B model 256mb) to play around with and thought it would be a great replacement to some power heavy desktops that I have running around my home.

I installed raspbian wheezy via the noobs sd card. I am not sure what version or how to find out which version.

I managed to set up miniDLNA to stream to my xbox360, and a samba-share to use it as a nas, and deluged to run torrents. My last task for this device is to add XBMC and replace my desktop on my LCD.

I am following the instructions posted here to install XBMC: http://www.raspbian.org/RaspbianXBMC

The first time through I had problems with running out of memory when compiling. Since, I restarted the project and again have been running into some errors:

1) when I execute the make command (point 12, in provided link) I run into these errors:

libavcodec/h264.c: In function ‘decode_slice_header’:

I am not sure what to do here. Any suggestions?

I don't know what you mean by that, but I gave up and formatted the SD card. I am not running RASPBMC. Now I have to set up all the services I had running on raspbian onto RASPBMC which isnt going very well haha.

berry boot image has openelec with xbmc preloaded it also automatically updates xbmc so you always have the latest xbmc distro
just download fusion and xunity and you have everything you need also its very easy to connect to wifi

thanks maybe I will do that for my next setup. Meanwhile I managed to get everything working with raspbmc (deluge, samba, xbmc, x11 forwarding, minidlna).
