XMBC and Google Nexus 7, the best combination

[delphiman]

I am using XMBC XBMC For Android | XBMC on my Google Nexus 7

This is the best entertainment app for you Nexus. The best part is you can stream movies your networked hard drive easily.

Love it

How long have you been working for them?

Did you install the app on a desktop system, and are using the remote app on your Nexus 7?

Are you able to get to your media while not on your home wifi?

XBMC is a free and open source project, I don't think they employ marketing people, and that doesn't sound like something a developer would write. So more likely just a fan.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll check it out.

XBMC is great. I used it on the original XBOX, and now my current media center pc and a handful of Android Tablets. I haven't found anything that really compares.

Before you say something like that, you should check it out before making yourself like fool.

XMBC is a open-source media center. It works well on android to watch movies, pictures, music, etc. The best part, it is streaming video from your networked drive with no buffering

Let's not have a misunderstanding here - this app is free and open source, just like the Android OS. No reason for accusations or name calling. There's no ulterior motive, just the sharing of information. That's what the forums are for, right?

Nevermind, it seems it does:

"It was designed for network playback, so you can stream your multimedia from anywhere in the house or directly from the internet using practically any protocol available."

Does the Nexus 7 have a network drive? I thought it was internal storage only without rooting. But maybe I'm just a bad robot.
