Do they? I've never had any problems.

But nice guide nevertheless.

Well it's certainly detailed. I'm sure it will be useful for people who've never used xbmc.

I think most people work out how to browse files and play video through the file interface quite easily.
Getting it all indexed into a library (so movies and tv shows options show up) is more complicated, and I'd imagine many people search for help on that.

Might be interesting if someone new to xbmc uses that document to set it up.
I have a slight worry that some of the screenshots looked different from the ones I'm used to - it's possibly describing an older version of xbmc than is typically used on Pi.
