Hi,
Does the Skybox F5 or F5s supported by XBMC and if so, how would you install it?
When you purchase a Skybox F5 or F5s with a 12-month gift, is this accessed by a login and password?
Thanks

Nope XBMC is not on this box as its a closed firmware nor can you load it to it for the same reason, its not designed for it, read the android thread for more info on a box for XBMC, dont buy any box with a 12 month gift on it, they do a runner, no more box working, your now out of pocket, read the forum this is already covered in various posts

If you want a box that has that and XBMC, then mikah is right, you need an android box.
here is a link to one, its called a MEdia Art ULTRA box, it has onboard memory and works very well.
I saw it in the what sat magazine, and you can buy from satsecure.co.uk

Not worth the money the android box Mickah has you can get these boxes far cheaper then the one advertised above by Manchesterguy and works just as well you get the same programs for a lot less then that box is, people just want to watch tv not take out another mortgage to buy a box.

its £150 for it, and is a sat box and a android box, found this on another forum
I have the XBMC working fully and can view on IPTV also. so id not a major problem for most things, however would still like to get the sat side of things working.
I think hybrid boxes are now starting to hold their own, not there yet. But the fact I can download any app, use XBMC, stream stuff and if get working use for home sat system. All for £150 think it becomes a very interesting little box to play with.
so not really a bad price for what it is
