Raspbmc's HDMI-CEC to Control XBMC with your TV remote | Foo.co.za - Neil Broers Edit: Raspbmc RC4 now has CEC enabled out of the box – No need to enable the XBMC web server. 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. Raspbmc has included a basic implementation of CEC in version RC3, meaning you can now control your Raspberry Pi installation from your CEC-enabled TV remote (well in theory, anyway). You’ll need a CEC-enabled TV or amplifier that is connectioned to your Raspberry Pi via the HDMI connector. Support for CEC was only included in Raspbmc from version RC3, but it is not present in the normal XBMC build. Go to Settings -> Network -> ServicesSet “Allow control of XBMC via HTTP” to on.Set the username to “xbmc” and leave the password blankMake sure the port is set to 8080
How-to install OpenELEC for Raspberry Pi under Windows | TasksOfOhm Using a Raspberry for multimedia application is something quite interesting. Mid of September version 3.2 of OpenELEC has been released bringing a new version of XBMC to your Raspi. Unfortunately creating a bootable SD card is not straightforward if you’re Windows-centric. Under Windows the following ingredients are required A properly formatted SD card for OpenELEC requires to have two partition on it whereas one of them is formated with an ext4 filesystem. After inserting a new SD card and starting the Partition Wizard you’ll get something like this: For this tutorial I used a spare 1 GB card with a FAT32 partition. The original script is creating a FAT32 partition occupying 16 cylinders resulting in approx. 130 MB. On the left side of the Partition Wizard you can follow the actions that will be performed upon apply. The new partition layout now should look similar to this: The distribution comes as compressed tar archive which needs to be extracted first (7zip will do this job).
Index of / 3 Easy Steps to Install OpenELEC with WiFi on Raspberry Pi | My Media Experience 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. There are also instructions available to install OpenELEC with Windows at the Squirrel Hosting Blog. However, you still need to complete the step 3 in this guide to get the wireless connection working. Do you already have the Raspberry Pi and required accessories? So, let’s get started… Step 1: Install a Linux distribution to a USB drive Step 2: Download & Install OpenELEC on Raspberry Pi

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. Spotimc uses the version 10 of libspotify. Obtain it from Note: the Spotify developer page offers a link to version 12 of the library that doesn't work. Copy the libspotify library from libspotify-Linux-armv6-release/lib to script.audio.spotimc/resources/dlls/linux/arm or similar and edit get_platform_path() in envutils.py to return that path. We also need script.module.elementtree as a dependency. Spotimc should now be found in music addons and be somewhat functional.
