XBMC box

Thanks everyone, I have a better understanding of all this stuff now. I will have lots more questions once I have my new box in my hand lol. After playing with the Mag 254 for the last 2 days I can say it's very
easy to use and navigate and the picture is amazing. Hopefully my new stb will be as easy! :)

Its going to be easy to setup when rocket Launches the IPTV. All you do is enter the portal and your done. I have used it for over a year and its really nice and easy now it wont be the same setup as the FTA boxes like the guide will be different but you will see when rocker IPTV is out.

Hopefully it will be sooner then later :)
 
Avov uses an altered form of android that doesn't use the standard app store. Android is based/built from linux and avov altered it for their own source.

Tried a few android apps on avov and none worked.
Have to be mickyhop instead of app store I guess.
 
Sorry don't mean to make a big deal out of this, I'm just trying to pass on some info. I haven't tried it, but from what I understand it could be possible to install XBMC on a Mag254 if it's linux based. Perhaps someone should give it a try?

with the Avov, you get the apps only that are available thru it's Mickey Market. It's not like an Android where you have an infinite amount of APPS that may be found and loaded.
The Avov runs something they call Mickey Hop.
It uses it's own Mickey Market and what's in that Market is what you can get on the Avov, no more.
There are alot of apps there now, I think 48 of them. The updates that come automatically sometimes bring more into the Market (always except all new updates as they come)

If you have a favorite app or apps, let us know and we'll tell yea if it is currently in the Mickey Market
 
Yes dara, but we're onto another tangent again I think.
If the op is looking for something to do xbmc avov wouldn't be my first choice. To start with, avov doesn't use android apps so xbmc won't even load on it. Some xbmc apps were re-written to play on avov but you're stuck with what is offered only. I would go with something untethered to an outside server that offers true open source apps.

Avov working is dependent on connecting to the avov server to work. So if their server goes down as it did recently or decides to end your subscription you're stuck without a box because yours stops. Folcan and asft both suggested some good choices above.
