I installed official XBMC for OUYA v12.3.2 on my friend's OUYA
you can grab it directly from OUYA repository --> http://dlyv5j2269q7v.cloudfront.net/apps...12.3.2.apk
I didn't install the lastest version from OUYA Discover menu, which is v12.3.3,
because like we all know, they had licensing issues and we forced to
drop some audio playback capabilities of formats such as DTS and AC3 for now till they resolve this.
But in v12.3.2, the one just before, still included DTS and AC3 playback
and i still asked my friend today, and he said XBMC never crashed on him,
so its a really stable version of XBMC for OUYA, so i suggest you side load v12.3.2....
to side load it to your OUYA, just check tutorials on Youtube, there's plenty, its really easy!
and if u want XBMC to autoboot automatically when you powerON your OUYA,
just go to OUYA's discover menu,
and do a search for this app and install it --> AUTOPiLOT
if v12.3.2 isn't working great for you for some reason,
i suggest you use koying's SMPC v12.4.0 then http://filez.semperpax.com/5e9jhnh
basically, SPMC is XBMC for OUYA with DTS and AC3 included + Multi Channel PCM for AVR users....
it also fixes other stuff that i dont know about sorry...
you can always try both versions and see which one you like best.
Eskro Thank you very much.... I am up and running on the OUYA with the 12.3.2... I was able to install all my Aen Nox mods, with my centralized MySQL... it plays 1080 videos nicely.... Quite impressive that I got this done in only a few hours.
I had only used the Ouya when I first got it like 4 months ago... I ran into glitches trying to get XBMC installed and I gave up after less than an hour of messing with it. Now it seems to be fully functional. I like it. My preliminary analysis:
Pros:
Everything positive Eskro and others have stated. It runs Aen Nox nicely with my added bells and whistles.
Cons:
- It is a nice little hand warmer this thing... doesn't bother me... fan noise...? not a big deal as I have noisier gear in the same room... It can be changed too...
- Only one USB port... this is tricky, sideloading I had to swap out a keyboard with a thumb drive when downloading... horrible trying to type urls when sideloading. But I guess I only sideloaded XBMC...
- Remote/Controller... this is the biggest peeve (now I understand why others are so vocal about it)... It is not horrible, but I have grown accustomed to full remote functionality. I really wish I could plug a cheap $15 MCE Remote and have it work... I already have a Flirc which I do not use... will this work right off the bat with a cheap MCE Remote?
I really do not plan to retire my 2 Zotac ID80 htpcs running OpenElec... the Ouya is more for learning/playing and in case one of my htpc's goes kaput.
Oh... can one plug a USB hub to increase number of USB ports...? I dont have one to test.
Eskro thanks again, and I wholeheartedly agree with your enthusiasm. Not bad for $99
I'm late for work.....
