TVApps Garden... I installed almost all of the "relevant" ones... but the only one I recommend is the Sports Fan World (see post #2) and that's about it. The rest are niche like cartoons. The one I use the most is Cloud VOD which I think is already preinstalled for all the movies and episodes. And obviously the live streaming apps.projectmoonlightcafe wrote: ↑Yes the apps in the App Garden. I think after you select the Audio/Video section it lists like 20 or 30 hot apps. I also want to know what people suggest to install on XBMC...I tried some of the ones on the XBMC thread, but I didn't like them.
Hmm...I thought there were some channels in HK that you had to pay for like Star or something...googling shows they are all defunct now...lol. I haven't lived in HK for 15 years, didn't know they were gone.

did anyone install 球迷TV for F1 coverage yet?
I tried to install this for my friend today and ran into some issues.
had to go into COUCH MANAGER to update the app before it included F1

Quick question guys...while the default video app can play 10gb mkv files off my external hdd, looks like there's no DTS support. Any way around this?
Also, for the video and audio sync solution suggestions, u may want to include the fact u need to change to advance settings instead go standard settings to see the options.

street/retail price:
single core: $230
dual core: $300
SIG electronics has the dual core version on sale for $240+tax.
My group buy is far below the single core price for the dual core version. PM for details, or check the group buy thread.

Hi, I got a moonbox III today, after delete couple apps from desktop, I can only put 11 apps on the desktop. When I tried to put the 12th apps on it, it tells me it is full!
Is there anyway to fix this problem, so I can put 12 apps on desktop?

I used app backup and restore to save the TV Apps Garden (应用商城-com.moon.appstore-3-v1.3.apk) here, in case someone need it.

Mind backing up others like HK Live, HK Vision, HK Variety and Live HK ?

where did you find the settings for acceleration and playback in Xbmc? I went to videos and settings and I dont see those settings thereactng wrote: ↑XBMC
Audio Sync issue
In XBMC, the default settings often cause an audio sync issue where the audio does not match the video. There are a few settings that did the trick for me.
1. Settings | Videos | Playback
2. SELECT : Sync playback to display
3. A/V Sync method : "Video clock (Drop/Dupe Audio)" or "Video clock (resample audio)". DO NOT use Audio Clock.
Video Resolution issue
In XBMC, some movies played through the add-ons like Mashup incorrectly stretch the picture vertically. What should have been a 2.35:1 movie gets stretched into 16:9... making cars seem shorter and people skinnier and taller. If you search the internet, there are a bunch of incorrect suggestions that don't work or apply for Moonbox.
The default settings have hardware acceleration turned on for video. Once I turned them off, the picture resolution was perfect.
1. Settings | Videos | Acceleration
2. Decoding method : Hardware accelerated
3. Allow hardware

In Mashup... I found lots of TV content... from all the channels to 24/7 streams of Simpsons, Big Bang, X Files, Star Trek, etc. etc. etc. Will update first post when I get back in front of my Moonbox.

Are you guys getting buffering with the CloudTV app ?, this makes it unwatchable buffering every couple of seconds !

Only with some of the reality shows like Voice of China and Dad Where are you going (i'm guessing cause they're streaming from sohu or some chinese streaming site), but I was able to find those shows on other apps (in better quality) and I didn't experience any buffering in the other apps. Discovery World HD is buffering like crazy though
