It uses the newer libCEC which has significantly better support for different manufacturer CEC-based implementations, so chances are it will work just fine with your CEC-enabled TV. CEC is a specification that allows control of CEC-enabled devices that are attached through HDMI.

Setting Up Your Raspberry Pi For Headless Use With SSH The Raspberry Pi is – as we’ve seen in several previous articles – an extremely flexible piece of hardware. Once you’ve installed an operating system, got to grips with the small dimensions, and found a case for it, you’ll be able to install media centre software and perhaps even begin programming software (after all, that’s what it was designed for!). However, you might find that the business of plugging the Raspberry Pi into your big screen plasma TV – the only device in your house with a HDMI connection – is a bit tiresome while your family is watching their favourite show.

HDHomeRun Having an HDHomeRun box on your network allows you to watch Live TV directly from XBMC. 1 What is HDHomeRun?

How to install openelec on Raspberry pi with windows How to install openelec on Raspberry pi with windows : 23-06-2012 How to install openELEC / xbmc on the Raspberry Pi with Windows. Today was a very exciting day in the SquirrelHosting office. Python with Arduino LESSON 16: Simple Client Server Configuration over Ethernet In the previous lessons we have seen that powerful analytic and graphic programs can be written that allow data taken from the arduino to be displayed on a PC via Python. We have shown how the arduino can be connected to a PC by either a serial cable or Xbee radios. To fully unleash the power of the arduino, it can be set up as a server, and connected to a network via Ethernet. In this lesson, we will show how to set the arduino up as a server which is controlled and queried by clients on PC’s on the same network.

Watching live TV on a Raspberry Pi using a HDHomerun  UPDATE: I have now got this working all on the Raspberry Pi without needing the ipad -> see this post Getting live TV on the Raspberry Pi has eluded my so far, I have tried various ways and nothing has worked but that was until the Raspberry Pi foundation released the mpeg-2 decoder. The HDHomerun uses mpeg-2 so thought there would be a good chance it should work on the Pi with XBMC. So using the Raspbmc build of XBMC I added the HDHomerun video stream as a source in XBMC and to control the HDHomerun I used an app I have previously tested on the iPad called TV Streamer.

3 Easy Steps to Install OpenELEC with WiFi on Raspberry Pi Further to my comprehensive Raspberry Pi XBMC guide, this tutorial will show you how to install Raspberry Pi OpenELEC distribution and configure wireless USB WiFi adapter in 3 easy steps. Many people have been struggling to get a wireless adapter working with their Raspberry Pi. Thanks to OpenELEC Operating System, it is now quite easy to configure WLAN inside XBMC. The installation procedure with Linux is a bit more advanced compared to the Raspbmc installation with Windows, so if you are not familiar with Linux or using a command line to install software, I would suggest trying the Raspbmc first.

Raspberry Pi Network Chat in Python » blog.whaleygeek.co.uk Myself and @ryanteck (Mr Rastrack) ran some Raspberry Pi workshops this week. I put together a simple network chat application between two Pi’s to demonstrate how easy it can be to build a network aware application. We ran some workshops this week at a College, to train up students to be facilitators at an event we will soon be running for school children. Android Transporter for the Nexus 7 and the Raspberry Pi The Android Transporter allows you to share the display contents of your Nexus 7 tablet wirelessly with other screens in real time.

Spotimc: howto Got Spotimc working on Raspbmc RC3! Spotimc is a Spotify addon for XBMC found here: Download the zip distribution of beta 1 and extract it somewhere. By default it doesn't include the arm version of libspotify so it must be added and the envutils.py should be modified to look for the file. HyperPixel - 3.5" Hi-Res Display for Raspberry Pi My first HyperPixel failed to detect touches in a certain screen region, so Pimoroni without any hassle sent me a replacement display and refunded me for sending back the defective unit. The replacement works like a charm. Installation of the driver services works right out of the box, and I did this in headless mode via SSH. The display is sharp and simply looks good. Of course, at 3.5" size this is not really for running a desktop, but instead for status display (read: large letters) and for video. My replacement HyperPixel came with a warning sticked affixed to the display itself.
