Looks like pie :thumbsup:
Indeed it is. My first slice if Pi ever, so am quite excited to see how it all works tonight.Quote:

One thing that will help with your Pi is to set the xbmc theme to Quartz. it's the nicest looking imo but has the bonus of also running the quickest out of all the themes. :thumbsup:
Thanks - I shall keep that in mind and would be grateful for any further hints!
:thumbsup:
If your tv has a usb port, power your pi through that, it'll switch on and off with your tv :cool: (Just be careful the pi isn't updating the xbmc install when you switch it off :lol: )
Will the TV port have a strong enough output? I thought it was quite important to get a power supply with sufficient oomph as otherwise it could cause problems?
I also thought I read somewhere that when not in use the Pi has a very low power draw and so can generally just be left on? (although as I wont be using it daily I probably wont).
Most TV's should be fine, my samsun and sony TV's provide enough power anyway. But yeah, power consumption is pathetic for these devices anyways. one of mine is left plugged in the tv, the other into the mains.
EDIT
Just picked up this beauty, a brand new unused (and boxed!) Amstrad Mega PC controller. A nice addition to my collection of new controllers :)
