Why not have "Designed for XBMC" and "Powered by XBMC" officially certified hardware?

An XBMC branded mce remote, that emulates a keyboard (like the cheapo ebay ones) but comes default with all the keypresses needed for xbmc and should be cross platform too (should easy with keyboard emulation)

No drivers & no hassle. if it could sell for <£15/$20 it would sell by the bucket load

I think we should go knocking on NVIDIA's door and tell them to build a box for us. I know they would sell them!

- ASUS AT5IONT-I Intel Atom D525
- Kingston KVR1066D3S7/1G
- SILVERSTONE Sugo SG05-B

Nvidia isnt really the end hardware manufacturer one would contact though, but as said previously, its being investigated and who knows what the future will bring Smile I think we can all agree that XBMC dedicated hardware would be a great thing, so its something we do pursue Smile

while waiting for that an idea would be to have a test/certification score card for existing HW. Simply a list of test cases and hopefully a number of reference sound & video files. The output would a "certified for" or what ever + config guidelines.

XBMCbuntu FAQ <-- answers 99% of your questions.
Forum Search answers the rest.
