I am at the same stage as you and find I don't have an E/Dash or E/Apps. As far as I can tell it seems we now need to use Auto Installer Deluxe 4.01 to add the Apps and Dashes, XBMC etc., see http://www.xbox-hq.com/html/postt22859.html The AID download includes a .pdf explaining everything in more detail. PM me if you prefer but I'm new to this...the blind leading the blind lol!

Thanks for the replies, I went back and flashed the dashboard with unleash x instead of evo x. Then went and manually added an apps folder by ftp and stuck the xbmc files in there. XBMC then showed up under 'Applications' and I can run it from there fine. Just setting up now (after the kids have finished playing the 'Big !!! Emulator Disc I downloaded!)

Well,
I have it loaded. And playing music from a NAS on my network.
So far I'm as blown away as everyone else seems to be.
But.....
When I pay MPEG video it is out of step with sound and not refreshing very well. I suspect that if I can sync the sound to picture then I may be able to live with the poor refresh.

custardy

only on one video?
have you updated your XBMC build?

Just got one from Birmingham, a 1.4.

Just need to make some sense of all the different opinions on here now. Wish me luck, I'll need it

Remember XBMC gives options to adjust sound to sync if necessary

I haven't seen that anywhere in the options.

custardy

press start,select the audio speaker symbol
then(from memory) its a slider soption for sync

TBH ive only had to use it on a couple of films due to encoding

Does anyone know of a 4GB usb device that works with XBMC?

custardy

to the best of my knowledge the xbox doesnt look for usb devices as media storage
