![]() Searches package names and descriptions for what you want. ![]() To download and install programs from those repos, you would use the apt* commands in the CLI, or I suppose you could use aptitude, which uses Ncurses as a GUI. That is just the web version, and while you can download from it, you wouldn't really want to do it for much. Okay, umm, that was perhaps the wrong thing to link to. If I start using more background tasks, I will probably turn it back on, but we will see.Īnd wow that repo is huge, but sure isn't a pretty app store sadly. I don't run enough stuff in the background to warrant it, and the menus and video play without it the same as they play with it. I turn the overclock off just because I don't feel like I need it. Have you tried XBian with the 100mhz overclock? I figure I might as well go all out. This seems like it might be a viable solution for launching ROM's in the emulator. There may be a way to integrate it as some sort of XMBC plugin, I am not sure. I see to remember reading about some sort of architecture conflict with one of the more popular snes emulators, I think it was snes9x.Īs for all from one interface, I am not sure about that. ![]() To my knowledge, web browsing is going to be slow and laggy because of the lack of GPU optimization, and the fact that the CPU can't handle the whole load, similar to the problems faced with the menu's in XBMC.Īs for emulators, there are a few projects, here is a post on the RaspPi forums about one such project, although I am sure that some googling can turn up some more stuff. Like would I be able to install a web browser and some emulators? (My ideal goal is to have a Raspberry Pi running as an XBMC client and be able to emulate a bunch of old NES/SNES/Genesis games all ideally from one interface) All I know is that after using all 3 for about an hour each for various tasks, XBian comes out on top, even without the overclock.Īnd excuse my ignorance but what kind of things would I install via apt?Īnything that is in the Debian repo. Is there something really different about the two at the core? Though I'm not sure how different that is than Raspbmc besides it running on the new optimized Debian. Even with the overclock turned off, which I do, it runs so much faster and smoother than Raspbmc or OpenELEC, and I have used both. ![]() This all said, if you intend to use the Pi with Xbmc, I suggest you use XBian. However, you also have to consider that there is a lot more additional transmission overhead on a network when compared to a USB connection, at least to my knowledge, so if you are streaming larger files from it, you may run into issues. It uses the same interface as the USB 2.0 ports, so as fast as can be transferred on USB, that is the fastest you will be able to stream. The problem with using the Pi as a NAS as opposed to PVR style box is that the NIC is the bottleneck. ![]() Well, I don't really watch media anywhere but on my TV, so the networked part isn't a bottleneck because I am not streaming anything over it, I am simply downloading, which with my shitty 20Mbps internet connection, doesn't really bottleneck. The best thing? The base model is only $20 $5!.ĭo you know a related subreddit? We'd love to know.
