In summary You can download Xubuntu or whatever its called now from the kodi site and install it on the machine from a usb stick. However, there are better products out there now and this one has not been sold for a while.

My advice is stay with XBMC current version. I tried Kodi and it seemed to have too many bugs in it. I am currently using XBMCbuntu, which is simply Xubuntu optimized for XBMC. Upgrading to new versions of anything isn't always a good thing to do. I've been using this Matricom for about a year and it's been very reliable. I did replace the original OS with XBMCbuntu as mentioned before.

It has an older version of XMBC on it, so you can launch that - you'll have to navigate the file sources from inside the menu to find the mkv file, but generally yes. There may be issues with accelerated decoding, HD video from a usb thumb drive may be choppy.I would heartily recommend you install the latest version of XBMC, it was recently renamed to Kodi http://kodi.tv/download/

I gave mine away because it was too slow. In any case after connecting the HDMI cable to your tv it should load the application screen. You may need to return the item if you can't make it work. I agree with downloading XBMC though. did not try it without it.

I believe that it comes preloaded with a custom XBMC version and the external color is different.

If you are a techie and do your research you can find a version of XBMC that works pretty well. I run XBMC every day. It takes the right combo of ROM and XBMC to get it to work. Check out freaktab for everything.

This is a limitation of XBMC itself. You can play 1080p all day long on the Android side of the gbox.

XBMC has a pre-built Ubuntu based distribution available. Otherwise, I would recommend any Debian derivative. Ubuntu is probably the easiest option.

You have to delete that xbmc off the apps and then go to their website xbmc.org and download the real version.

it's a wireless keyboard - if XBMC responds to the keys it sends, then it will work.

Just got the box and opened it up you would need an usb tuner card that is xbmc approved. xbmc shows the 32 gig ssd as a user space so i dont see why not.

To my Knowledge No. There are talks about the new 4k players they are developing using XBMC as their front end interface.
