The ultimate hub for all your media, XBMC is easy to +use, looks slick, and has a large helpful community. XBMC supports +viewing and playing a vast library of audio, video and image formats. +XBMC has a sophisticated library management system that allows you to +organize all your media to give you quick and immediate access. + +XBMC requires faad2, libmms and enca. + +Optional: vobcopy, lirc, faac, SDL_gfx, cwiid, pybluez, +lightblue, libvdpau and avahi. Starting with version 9.11 XBMC can +be built with additional system libraries which are ffmpeg, libmpeg2, +libdca (aka libdts), a52dec (aka liba52) libass and python (all available +at slackbuilds.org or included in Slackware). Look inside the slackbuild +for addtional information to turn these options on. + +Optional: pulseaudio (not available at slackbuilds.org) + +In order to use a Wii remote with XBMC pass USE_WII=yes to the +slackbuild. This now makes cwiid a build requirement and also requires +pybluez or lightblue for bluetooth support. + +Some plugins to use are available at: +http://code.google.com/p/xbmc-addons/ +http://www.xbmcscripts.com/ |
