    Xbmc

    Firstly let me apologise if I am being thick.

    I have seen posts/links for xbmc plugins for enigma2 but nothing on how to install xbmc itself, now my question is this, (and this is where I am feeling a bit thick)
    I have a technomate twin oe stb (enigma2) Is it possible to install xbmc on this device and if so how?
    I am not overly tech savvy but I can normally fumble around and get stuff done but with this I am going round in circles. I think the problem is that I know little to nothing about Linux. (A mate set up my stb and I just use it)
    Thanks in advance for any help, even if it is just to say "no you wally this can't be done" :-)
    Also I think this is in the right section but sorry if it's not.

    Hi,
    XBMC itself is not running on current STBs. There are two new STBs coming with a special version of XBMC. Look for prismcube (not connected to NSA) and E2BMC.

    ciao

    Hi leonc,

    The same thing happened to me, I'm using a TM-TWIN, I found that after installing the plugin and installing the relevant addons/scripts that nothing would happen when selecting the addon, however, after performing a Vix software update then addons would then work in some way, I can access the addons and view listings but nothing streams to the box when selecting so I've almost got it working but not quite.

    I don't know what else to do now I'm a little stuck.

    Can anyone else help please?

    Cheers!

    Bear in mind on most addons it takes up to 30 seconds to load so be patient. I find a repeat press of the Ok button on certain links kick it into action.

    Hi lgleave22,

    I've left it for over 1 minute and nothing happens, not sure if there's something missing from the install or something?

    Hi, I installed XMBC on my TM-2T but for some reason it won't let me update to version 5. I try but the box crashes. Is it possible that someone could post a working version 5 on here in ipk format please?

    you need to add script modules to version 5
    after you have installed xbmc v5
    downloaded script-modules.v2 from
    Code:
    http://www.sendspace.com/file/v9x336
    un-zip it
    open script-modules.v2 folder
    selected all 16 script-modules folders
    ftp all 16 into /usr/lib/enigma2/python/plugins/extentions/XBMCAddons
    then changed atts to 755
    then exit ftp and pc
    open xmbc plugin on receiver
    go to addons select - install addons (install all or your selection)
    now i ran each one eg 1 channel etc then wrote down what script-modules was required (i had to add 4 script-modules)
    exit and back to last menu
    go to install script-modules next and install your required script-modules
    exit when your install is complete
    restart receiver
    hope this helps
    foz

    Thanks Foz, all seemed to be going well following your excellent instructions but when I try to install addons it say that I need to install update20131112.zip. I have tried & tried again but it won't download the zip from
    Code:
     www.turk-dreamworld.com
    . Will wait a bit and try again
