This unit CANNOT run Android and stream xbmc video content over the web.
It CAN play movies if you have them on a local hard drive.
The way it ships, it has Android running. But if you run XBMC server on top of Android... the processor goes to 100% max and the Frames Per Second goes from 29 fps down to 10 fps.
The video sort of moves at 1/10th the speed it should.
I contacted tech support, and they had me delete Android, and run a pure XBMC over system ... no android.
It still didnt work... because it wouldn't recognize my wireless Ethernet.
Also, the XBMC isnt even loaded when you get it. You have to load all that stuff yourself. I am a geek, so I managed.... but non-techy people would NEVER succeed.
I returned it, and got a GBox Midnight MX2 . It is strong enough to run Android AND xbmc...
XBMC was loaded out of the box (unlike the Xios).
Plus the Gbox controller is far better.
Very frustrating to take all this time and effort on an underpowered box.
Give it a pass.
