Hey Yotch! Thanks for your earlier reply. You ever consider opening XBMC night classes?

@AlexFI & Icemanbrfc: Regarding XBMC I am still very much a novice myself! My advice would be to read a few guides or watch some videos to learn the basics. I have posted a few links below to get you started. If you still want to learn more then you can start to investigate things in more depth. You don't need to be an expert to be able to use XBMC together with some popular add-ons very effectively. I would just focus on getting your machines to play the content that you want and learn what you need to during the process. You can learn a lot just from tinkering with the preinstalled XBMC. Post again if you want more specific information.

Maybe Yotch should start an XBMC thread on MyBB.

Noooo! It'll get lonely in here

On all of my older Android boxes I had to sit through adverts on Hulu, now the new firmware on the MXIii just goes and fast forward all of the adverts as it's on auto pilot. Pretty neat!

I'm about to update my MXIII firmware... I'll post my experience here shortly

Very cool. I don't quite understand, do you have to click on fast forward or does it do it automatically?

 

[AlexFl]

(MXii) IIRC XBMC needs Superuser access. If this is indeed the case, how can I do so? Can't find the setting in Superuser. Clearly I prematurely thought I was a Superuser when I duff'ed that up...

It goes on fast forward when Hulu has ad breaks. No intervention from you required.

 

[Icemanbrfc]

I have a left or right nut for an MX3. Any takers? :lol:

Straight swap

No need, R1.2k will buy you one today!
And just R950 for the quad core MXQ!

It does it automatically.

I get a lot of buffering with Hulu Plus on MX3. The stream plays perfectly on my Roku.

 

[JvanD]

@Awesome Are you on the latest firmware?

 

[Awesum]

Yes. I am.

 

[JvanD]

Yes. I am.

I got version 2.14 on mine, will do some testing tonight the check if it's maybe a version related issue.

 

[Awesum]

I'm on 3.10.33

 

[JvanD]

@Awesum I watch Gotham last night with one small buffering instance last night. I watched Gotham and it seems to be alot better than your experience.

I recommend that you install 2.14 and see if it solves your problem.

 

[Awesum]

Where can I get it?

 

[JvanD]

Just type in google and search for it. Otherwise i will upload tonite for you.
