Interruption in service
The build box that I use to make OpenELEC for the Raspberry Pi and its associated web server with release bundles and image files has been down for most of the last day. Normal service is now resumed, so if you’re still having issues seeing openelec.thestateofme.com it’s likely to be due to DNS propagation delays. When […]

Raspberry Pi TV/PVR
Update (26 Jan 2013) This post is now a historical record of the hoops that I once had to jump through to get my Raspberry Pi working as a PVR. Everything has now been folded into the official OpenELEC build, which at the time of writing is at 3.0 RC2. You can download an SD […]

In the first part of this howto I went through signing up for a cloud service, provisioning a VM, installing the build tools and kicking off a build. All being well you should end up with something like this: Azure can also give you a pretty chart of how busy the VM was during the build […]

Initially I started compiling it myself on a local virtual machine (VM), but impatience got the better of me and I downloaded an image provided by somebody else. […]

If you just want to download images rather than make them then I’d suggest downloading an image of the latest official build. For the adventerous I’m still doing frequest dev builds and associated images[1], but these may be unstable. Read on if you’re interested in how this stuff is done… The Raspberry Pi build of […]

I’ve continued tinkering with my OpenELEC media player, and there’s too much stuff to do as just updates or comments to the original post.

My old Kiss Dp-600 media player has been getting progressively less reliable, so for a little while I’ve been telling the kids that I’d replace it with a Raspberry Pi. Of course getting hold of one has proven far from simple. Some time ago the prospect of using XBMC on the Raspi was confirmed, leading […]
