I have a Prometheus sitting here for a while, the power on it is gone, I'll dig it out during the week and get a power. I can't remember what ROM I have on it, but it ran/runs very smoothly for me (With Heatsink).

I went with iba's suggestion above when I got to transferring the .xbmc folder after deleting the original rewarded with NOT ENOUGH SPACE (about 40/50mb left to go) :mad: So a no go with that. Tried beyondxbmc3.4 went about setting up p2p got it showing the stream within xbmc but could only watch for a few mins before it went into constant buffering, I can watch sopcast and acestream at the highest bit stream no hassle on my computer i'm confident it's not my internet speed. Could be the cache or the ram being to full or something else Frustrating doesn't even come close I'll stick with my monthly sub to a site will also be looking at sites branners had suggested to.@michael.. I only use it for the browser to watch from a paid site or streaming apps it's totally fine for that. You can see from the crap above with xbmc it's f**king annoying as hell. Sorry I can't be anymore helpful then that. Edit: My last go at this pretty much died straight away, my mk908ii which I hadn't used since the other tv broke, mk908ii is also "broke" it flashes on and off and the screen has red marks across it. Think the last rom i put on it was 1.6 finless. Went looking for the batch tool found 1.7 but it won't pick up the mk even in bootloader mode (hold reset button then connect usb cable). Also noticed all of finless roms are taken down on freaktab has he left the scene?

I uninstalled and went back to Frodo, and now its working fine again. How do you find the Prometheus? I'm seriously looking into getting one!

Only got back into using xbmc and that popped up I've looked at a few youtube vids they show it playing the videos within xbmc and not external player. I've it all nearly set up but for that part it keeps loading the external player (MXPlayer) Edit. Im using acestream links and have acestream running in the background. PM would probably be better I'm not sure.
