yes you can. if you know how to change your bios with xbtool you can change it to point to your xbmc folder eg. f:/apps/xbmc/default.xbe.

or you can copy the whole xbmc folder to your c drive and rename default.xbe to the name your bios is looking for,

  • Xbox v1.3, 64MB, 120GB HD.
  • ASRock ION 330 Ubuntu XBMC.
  • 40" HDTV 720p, AC3/DTS Receiver.
Read the xbmc online-manual, faq and search the forums before posting.

or there is even another possibility:

i don't use any of them, but have xbmc as first entry in evox. so start box, press a and autostart whatever you want through python. :-) don't need a tv for this! ;-)

Quote:import xbmc
xbmc.mediaplay('shout://addicted.puredj.com:8000')

cddb

it does not start (and the audio playing meanwhile skips by one Smile)
