Raspbmc official release!


So, you might've seen that the official Raspbmc release is out.  Up until now I've been using Raspbmc RC5 (release candidate 5).  Following a lot of hard work the guys over as Raspbmc have reached a point where they have a stable, feature-rich version based on XMBC 12.  And so they've released Raspbmc v1.0.

Take a look at the details Raspbmc final release.

And you can download it Raspbmc Downloads.

For details on installing, take a at some of my earlier posts:

I haven't installed this yet (just waiting on a new SD card, busy watching from my current card), but will give this a whirl soon and fingers crossed, report back that is works like a charm!

Raspbmc - Part 2


So – I’ve had a week or two to play around with Raspbmc and thought I’d give some feedback.  Overall impression?  Damn good!  I’m trying hard to not sound over-zealous about it, but I’m very happy with what I’ve seen so far.  I’ve got my all my media loaded, I can control it with my TV remote & Android phone, it’s stable and slick.
Take a look here for more detail.
