    Depending on your machine, you will need to browse to your userdata folder. This is a folder that has lots of stuff about your addons etc. In this then there is a folder called keymaps. This is where your XML is. Can you say more on what's happening?

    I've been using Phoenix lately for live TV channels, UK & US some are HD like the golf channel (option of 720 or 1080). I use Genesis for movies and box sets etc. I use to vdubt for football games but that hasn't worked for me for awhile.

    Find yourself a decent RuYa supplier - by far, the best IPTV package on the market and cheaper than NTV as well! :cool:

    Folks I recently purchased an M8s streaming box, and while I would regard myself as reasonably tech savvy, this box is driving me nuts. At the moment I am trying to install iVue TV Guide using Tecbox. I have downloaded the source file, installed xbmc.repo.tecboxtvguide-1.0.2.zip, and once I've got 'Add-on enabled notification for iVue', I've gone into 'Install from Repository'. This is where I'm running into my problem, in that I see iVue TV Guide Add-on, I select it, but nothing happens. I do believe that I should be getting another screen where I get Program Add-Ons > iVue TV Guide >Install, but I'm not getting this, and I have no idea why? Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Try restarting the box and then try install it again. Also are you connected to the internet

    Hi Massy, I have a wireless connection which should be okay, is a wired connection preferable, although the router is in another room?

    And just on Homeplugs, there are very good offers on them at present on Amazon's Deals. Just note if you look on Amazon.de,.fr or.es, you will get a 2-pin plug.

    Just buy them off Eircom. You don't need to be a customer as far as I know.
    €29.99 on Eircom site. Same set is £39.99 on Amazon.

    I would suggest that you read the Android Box thread, there are plenty of recommendations there.

    All you're getting is an MX box worth 30 euro from these cowboys. They buy the box in cheap and fool gulable people into buying them. As long as there is a market, it'll continue.

    Some models come with a Wifi repeater, but as will all repeaters, performance is compromised but perfect for general web browsing, etc. There lots of different models available, in different speeds, some with 2 or 3 ports, some with Wifi, etc.

    The Argos price is the cheapest I've seen them so far for a twin pack (non-Wifi) and they are rated 500M (as opposed to 200Mbps on the Eircom ones)
