XBMC Atrix *HDMI* (Any Blur based ROM)​

Here is the link: CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD​

Test and let me know how it works. :)​

Special thanks to djeman​

XBMC
Description:​

Is the one of the most complete multimedia center, where you can play your favorite audios, videos, movies, also it supports many plugins like (TV, Web, Apps, etc.).​


Considering this is an Atrix, this could be used as the new WebTop for CM7/CM9/CM10 but more for multimedia than office and other things, but you can always go the plugins way.​




I'm bringing the XBMC from the dev kemonine96, since it works almost fully and I have been testing it to the bottom, so any question you can ask me. TEST AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Here is the original post so you can download it and test it: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1813089

Thanks for all.


** Known Bugs:​


*CPU1 when not playing anything, it freezes at 67%.

*Cannot load 720p+ Videos, it lags a lot due to HW lack.
*Won't change resolution.​






Special thanks to kemonine96.​

Just want to say the tegra version in the link is working on my th3bill miui rom.

I can connect to my network and stream etc, just like xbmc on anything else. Navigation is a bit fiddly, being touch only.

Can't wait to replace my atv2 with an Android box :)

Awesome, cheers!

You can always modify resolutions in the Settings of XBMC, that being said, yes.

Actually, you can't. I tried with my lapdock, and it wouldn't let me change it. It looks ok on my lapdock, but in a tv it would look big.

I still don't know how to play music/video using it, it seems like it doesn't come with a music/video player built in.

Im going to go around their forum later to figure out those things.

Looks pretty nice so far.

You will also want to check their wiki. It outlines usage very well. Keep in mind the Atrix is an unofficially supported device. If you have android specific issues or playback problems please post back to XDA. The official channels will not be able to help with Atrix specific issues.

What do you mean sir Luis? Everything works fine, is true that I haven't tried the resolution change since my dock is on the mail but it should scale up fine. If somebody else report back or you can surely confirm it doesn't then I will post it as a bug in the OP.

Don't worry, we will not blame XBMC as you said in your original post and now here.

Seems like it won't change the resolution. I tried with my lapdock, and it won't let me to change it to other values.

So this runs on straight Android? Or do we run it from Ubuntu on our phones? And add-ons work just on the phone, e.g., like radio streams (sky.fm, digitally imported), anime freak, scrubbers, etc? If so, very interesting!

This runs on straight Android.

If you are running ubuntu on your phone you will want the version from the ubuntu ppa or similar.

Add-ons should generally work. A few may not, but I haven't heard of / know any being outright broken offhand. This should include the last.fm / sky.fm / scrobblers / you tube and the like. If you run into any broken add-ons let me know and I will update the main thread with the known-broken add-ons.

If aimed at me (the guy behind the main nightlies thread): I won't be including the external player patch in my builds just yet. Right now there are no official nightlies being built and I plan to keep mine as close to vanilla xbmc as possible until they post official nightlies.

When official nightlies are posted I'll be taking a closer look at different patch sets and re-evaluating including them in my builds.
