RE: HD media player - consensus on the best?



I'm using XBMC too as well as the C200

I have to admit it does work very very well !!

I just stuck it on the PC I use for ripping stuff (new but nothing really
fancy) to see what it was like and its now like a family friend :) Plays
everything we chuck at it.

If you go down that route, use something like Ember Media Manager to sort
out your NFO files as XMBC/Plex etc. seem to do a rank job of getting the
correct movie info :(

Big benefit for me is that XBMC integrates into Control4 - so we can choose
movies direct from the C4 GUI
