Hi guys!
I'm a big fan of the original XBMC on the old Xbox. As many of you I want to play HD-Material. I recently tried the Linux-Port on my PC, but ist didn't work very well due to my crappy hardware.
I like the whole "Mac-Concept" and so I am thinking about to buy an Mac. Afaik the MacMini won't play 1080p at high bitrates.
And so there are a couple of questions:
Will the iMac (2,4ghz) work?
Is there an uncomplicated way of watching the movies on my LCD and using my AV-Receiver for sound? (Turning the iMac on and starting XBMC is not the problem, I was thinking of plug in/out cables everytime... would be horrible for me... )
Will XBMC work on Leopard?
Thank all of you for any helpful answer.
