Have to say being a "newbie" to both media box's and XBMC I'm really learning alot from this thread so thanks Boardsies.....I had problems with add-ons, repositories etc had to do a reinstall at one stage, but i found a nut job on youtube ( JoeNobody010101 ) you have to see this dude, anyway, theres an addon -TotalXBMC and it cointains within it, EVERY add-on. So no more googling, youtubing etc or separate installs, it does it all for you with one click. Never came across it before ( apologies to those this is old news too )Hope this helps !

Is this the guy with the Boston accent, who spreads the F word liberally through his video?

Yeah, I couldn't figure out for ages what he was saying. I think he's actually saying "hit enter"

Grabbed a Walker Quadcore box in Powercity last week. Works great with Showbox and XBMC. Even managed to get Navi-x on to it.

Hi just got one of these boxes, the wizard is on it, just wondering is there a way of saving or backing up the wizard in case something goes wrong

Mine has been stuck in GBLALA since 17th Nov.... Any idea how long it takes to be released?

peadar76 · 30-11-2014 9:01pm

Has anyone else got the walker box? Is it any good?

LFC Murphy · 04-12-2014 2:16pm

Yeah the remote is pure crap... I had a wireless mouse and keyboard so i'm using that.

styron · 04-12-2014 3:21pm

Ordered the Logitech K400 wireless touch - comes highly recommended on the Android box thread.

Thanks a million.... great app, and saves me 20 plus euro

sdowling04 · 05-12-2014 8:19pm

Just picked one of these from amazon along with along with a wireless keyboard and mouse. Decided that was a better option than an air mouse and got free one day shipping with a trial of prime

Fiddled around with XMBC for 15 mins last night on my laptop and all the videos I tried didnt work.I'll have another go tonight.

phobia2011 · 06-12-2014 9:45am

the air mouse/control is a must for these boxes,

deadlast · 06-12-2014 10:00am

Air mouse or wireless keyboard/mouse? €20 in the difference for the keyboard...

i can only comment on the fly mouse i have, it has a mini keyboard on the back of it, only for it using the box would be a pain.

peadar76 · 15-12-2014 10:55am

I just got this in the post this morning. I got it here -
http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00F6W3GTO/ref=pe_385721_37038051_TE_3p_dp_1

But I don't think I got F10 fly air mouse that was supposed to be included, I think I just got the standard remote.
If the F10 was included would the standard remote also be included or is that replaced by the F10

You should have got the f10 contact the seller and tell them to send it to you.

rob316 · 15-12-2014 1:08pm

So what seller ships from the UK for this box? All the one's I can see are dispatched from china.

Thanks.

peadar76 · 15-12-2014 3:35pm

Anyone got any advice for setting this up? Or is it straight forward? Any snags I should look out for?

deadlast · 16-12-2014 5:27pm

Got my box but like others, no air mouse....have contacted seller.

deadlast · 16-12-2014 8:07pm

I'm trying to add Fusion following this link http://www.tvaddons.ag/fusion-installer-kodi/

But when I get to step 4 I can't type using the onscreen keyboard with the remote...anyone any ideas?

Lucas Hood · 16-12-2014 8:18pm

What phone have you got? If android download yatse it's an Xbmc remote you can then use your phone keyboard.

When i had a iPhone rowmote was an app that did the same.

You'll need to the box's ip address and input it to the apps handy enough.

deadlast · 17-12-2014 2:39pm

Anyone get 4od working on this? It keeps telling me to restart the device and try again when I try to play something...

peadar76 · 18-12-2014 11:02am

I had a quick play around with this last night. So far so good. Although the remote would wreck your head.

How is it powered off? Is it meant to be left on standby all the time?

I'd really appreciate some feedback on this from those of you that have this box. Am I missing something simple? From the screen there is the option of putting it on standby or rebooting. But how is it shutdown completely? I understand it is probably best to leave it on standby most of the time. But I want to move it to a different room. Do I just plug it out?

There is no shutdown, just plug it out yes.

Anyone know where to get a decent length HDMI cable (its a mini connection on one end) for this in a bricks and mortar shop for cheap? The one included was tiny!

For anyone thinking of purchasing this, PC World are selling them at €37 in black or white. Its a great piece of kit.
