RE: XBMC - The Frodo Guide - mrgd4nthng - 2013-11-07
I apologize in advance if I am trying to address this in the wrong forum. I have a ATV 1g, jailbroken using firecore atvflash. I am running Eden on my box, but recently add-ons like 1channel are not working on my box because 'dependencies are not met'. From everything I have read I am supposed to upgrade to Frodo. Based on everything I have read now, I cannot upgrade to Frodo without running Linux. Is that my only option, I just want to upgrade without running a different OS on my system.
Please Advise. Thank you in advance!

1channel and similiar addons aren't supported here.
You can of course use Frodo without Linux, but I'm not sure about the ATV...

Thank you very much. As a new member to new software it's always nice to see some guides.
RE: XBMC - The Frodo Guide - HenryFord - 2013-11-25
Glad you like it, @Ritsuke!
As we are approaching the release of Gotham, I'm restructuring my guide. Adding more in-depth explanation. At this state I'm thinking about different version of the guide. Let me know what you think about the following releases:
1. Light - contains of a quick how-to to get started with XBMC (similiar to the Light-Guide which is currently available), excluding sickbeard, couchpotato, etc.
2. Extensive - contains a quick how-to to get started with XBMC, Sickbeard, Couchpotato, etc.
3. Advanced - contains a full guide to XBMC (including settings, more customization, etc.)
4. Advanced Extensive - contains a full guide to XBMC, Sickbeard, Couchpotato, etc.

Hi all. Just getting into XBMC via my G-Box Midnight MX2.
In reference to this proposed guide, I was wondering if each level with have the previous one included or will they be 4 separate modules?
Thanks.
RE: XBMC - The Frodo Guide - rmilyard - 2014-04-05
Any newer updated guides out there or this pretty much still current?
RE: XBMC - The Frodo Guide - HenryFord - 2014-04-05
It should still be very much current. However, I plan to release an update with the new Gotham release, hope I make it in time.
RE: XBMC - The Frodo Guide - HenryFord - 2014-05-06
Unfortunately time is very limited at the moment - I hope that I can finish the Gotham Guide in the next 14 days.

Hi I have tried to post in the tips, tricks and step by step guides but it says I can't so I found this post and thought I would try here. Please move this if it's not in the correct thread.
I have an MX Midnight android box that came with XBMC Frodo, I have now found that Gotham is the next one & wish to upgrade. Through the box browser I navigated to xbmc.org then to the page with the link for Android ARM, I then started download & when it did I got this message "existing package by same name with conflicting signature already installed" I am new to this wonderful piece of equipment & I try to navigate my way around but then become stumped with unexpected messages, like this one. I had the Mashup error message re repository not installed, I found off this site the fix but it has done it again.
So questions are 1. Do I upgrade as per above from Frodo to Gotham or is there an easier/quicker solution - in plain English?
2. With Mashup is there an easier way to stop the Needed modules thing crashing?
Thank you
Karen

Henryford many thanks for enlightening me re mashup. In respect of xbmc Gotham, can you advise if I can upgrade from Frodo to Gotham & is there an easy way round dealing with the signature issue?
RE: XBMC - The Frodo Guide - HenryFord - 2014-08-27
I do not know about the mx midnight specifically, only about android. The problem is that you currently have a compiled XBMC not from XBMC.org installed on your device. The compiler of the version you are using is naturally using a different certificate to sign the apps than the developers from here, thus the error pops up. If you want to try the official build from here, you have to remove the current version on your device before attempting to install the one from here. There is no way around that (other than recompiling Android). If you're keen on upgrading I'd suggest to try the mx forums and see if anyone can give you a heads up if and when the new version will be available.

Hi, I started recently to use Kodi and I think that would be very helpful a good guide to begin. Unfortunately, the download links doesn't work. Is there any possibility to retrieve it?
Thank you
