Update for XBMC

Currently XBMC can be used to play almost all of the popular audio and video formats around. It was designed for network playback allowing you to stream multimedia directly from your NAS via HDMI to any monitor or directly from the internet using practically any protocol available.

Update for XBMC

Post by keithofeccy »

As there have been problems of late with XBMC, will the great peoples from ASUSTOR try and fix the bugs. I have spent a lot of money on my NAS drive and it seems as though we have to upgrade and pay out for a new one if we want KODI.
There must be something that can be done.....please!!!

Buy a cheap raspberry pi, runs kodi better. Use NAS as NFS drive

yes, was looking forward to receiving some updates to XBMC or upgrade to KODI for the 2xxTE series. A bit feeling like being given up after 1 year of purchase for this reason.

i bought asustor because of XBMC (KODI) - and do not use it anymore because they haven't found a way of giving us KODI on the INTEL ATOM CPU NAS.

If you want KODI --> get an Raspberry PI 2 B, a Micro SD card 4 GB Class 10, USB cable for power, openELEC software image

You can run the Raspberry powered via one of the USB Ports of your ASUSTOR NAS.
Use MySQL in your NAS for the database of KODI, save the konfiguration files and deploy as many Raspberry Pis as you want all connected to the same DB. This is how I do it - after getting like really angry for not having KODI on my NAS.

If you want more TV on KODI maybe take a look at the WeTek openELEC Box with DVB-* Receiver.

I too am disappointed with my Asustor NAS because of the XBMC performance, and lack of Kodi support. I no longer suggest Asustor to my friends. I see a lot if complaining on these forums. I may look into a raspberry Pi or other solution. That is really sad.

What's happening Asustor?! Don't you guys read these forums, and understand how this effects your sales??! At least be honest and up front with your customers.
