    The re-touched skin linked in the XDA thread won't install on the RC I went back to a build from the 6/12 and it installs fine. It's from the same creator as the original touched skin.
    In saying that the Touched skin available already in the settings menu works fine for the RC but is a bit too appley for my like.

    Only got the Nexus 7 yesterday and have yet to try this app. I have XBMC Remote (very snazzy app to show off to people in me house) and ES Explorer for streaming to the tablet at the moment.

    Since it's in beta, how's it running with the repositories? When I get this set up on the tablet my Media Center will have turned into a Media House :D

    Does anyone know if i can point the xbmc to my WD TV and stream the files from that?
    Is it as simple as putting in the IP address? Would I use SMB also?
    Thanks

    Yes, you can stream via an SMB share. Just use the WDTV IP address and the share name of the external WDTV drive.

    I'm still not completely sure which file to download for a Tegra device. Can someone give me a direct link to the latest APK?

    I think it's this one but al not 100%

    If it's tegra 2 then yep the non neon version is the right one.
    If it's tegra 3 then the neon version you do want.

    It's a tegra 3 (Acer a510) so I guess I should stick with what I have as it's working grand.

    You've linked to the non neon in your post.
    As tegra 3 supports neon commands you'll want this one

    I have the same problem streaming from an NSA310 to my galaxy tab2. The stock video player on the tablet plays the stream no problem.

    I guess they're still a few bugs to be sorted out with this.

    Hi guys,
    Using the latest build on my Nexus 10 and streaming from my laptop but 720p content stutters, should this be the case? Is it streaming 720p fine for you??

    Cheers,
    M

    Any streaming over wireless will always be hit and miss

    It streams 720p perfectly for me. Then again I realised that BSPlayer could play everything over the network so I'm kind of not using XBMC any more.
