U can't use Netflix on it? Why not? :dwillhuh:

It was just an issue at the time where you had to clean out the cache and reset it a few times Im sure it's been updated since than. So I just stopped messing with it especially since I have about 3 things connected to the TV including the TV that can play it..l have my laptop connote to my tv now and use a wireless remote so I been doing alright....but that xmbc has me curious but if i can't use my harmony remote with it or tablet/phone I'm not impressed.

I got one and have been thoroughly impressed so far. I got xbmc and show box loaded on there. Got a free month of prime and netflix but haven't had to touch either one. :wow:

You need a wireless mouse for show box though (developed for touch screen).

What you need though, breh? A quick google search should have you :eat:. I got SportsDevil, 1Channel, Mashup, Genesis, bout 1500 live channels...

And this shyt does Airplay for my hacked NFL and NBA apps. :banderas:

Yooooo did you have to "jailbreak" it to get all those channels for Xmbc or can u just side load it and add them? I ain't even opened mine yet I'm ready to eat :ohhh:

I have a iPhone 6 I heard it supports AirPlay...can't I just AirPlay moviebox too or nah

No root/jailbreak needed. If you just copped, like me, I doubt your firmware is able to be rooted now anyway.

Just grab this. That will allow you to side load xbmc and other apps. You can also install channels to xbmc with it. I would suggest adding dropbox because then you can install apps straight from the FTV.

And yeah, you can airplay movie box or anything else airplayable through xbmc or use an app like this.

Bought Fire TV early december for XBMC purposes. Upgraded from Apple TV 2.

shyt is night and day :wow:

Had OG firmware too, was able to root :win:

You don't need any other streaming service with XBMC addons. Damn near bought the whole family Fire TVs with wireless touchpad keyboards for Christmas.

Innanet make it so easy to eat nowadays. :wow:
