U do get xbmc for android and iOS devices

Kewl. Part 1 of the equation done.
If I start watching something on my pad using XBMC then switch to my TV, will the one know where the other was left off?
Or if I watch a movie on my pad will it not show in my unwatched list when I use the TV next time?

I have a feeling the TV and Pad won't know about each other due to no server to manage everything?

yeah, been out for 2 weeks already.
they say no rooting is even required, and it's the full-blown xbmc.

As much as i'd love to try plex, I just won't be able to cope without PseudoTV.
Sometimes it's just nice to flip channels than to weed through hundreds of series...

Its called Unwatched or On Deck (plex). Me thinks you not used Plex before?

I only weed through series if I want to watch something old over again.

Anyway, had this XBMC vs OE vs Plex many pages back. No one could win the debate so we left it. Depends on your usage. Bottom line is Plex is for a multi room/device environment. It can't be beat.

Honestly though, even for a single TV setup - I would use Plex. Its just so simple to setup and use.

Why do you keep thinking we are "debating xbmc vs plex" in every post?

You're always punting plex if my memory is correct (which might not be the case).

Has any of you used Navi-X btw?

I am. Point?
The XBMC and OE peeps punt their stuff.

I have tried them all. Not simply a brand preference.

Yep. It's a bit too complicated and anytime you get these not-so-legal streams, things tend to go pear shaped. Half the time streams don't work or the quality is bad or it buffers like crazy. For me these plugins are not great for long term use.

Also, last time I tried this app it logged like crazy and I ended up with massive log files.

Had the same experience. Will try again though...

U will have to run an mysql database in order to do that haven't played around with it yet, so I'm not shure if its gonna be efficient

Will read up about it abit more and then see if i can run it at home

Nice find dude. Think I will fiddle with XBMC again a little bit. Much more even comparison now (for Plex).

Today going to be a busy day it seems
