I can now report that I have successfully managed to get XBMC running on my Raspberry Pi. And I can add add-ons. Previously I had XBMC ruuning on my Raspberry Pi with Raspbmc but I was never able to add any add-ons, or add any media files. Never knew why, but it is irrelevant now anyways.
I have added the CBSNews and YouTube add-ons so far and both are working correctly. My next task will be to add the plugin for RTE and TV3 players. Who knows what after that.
Here is the list of features that comes with XBian (shamelessy snagged from here) :
- Fits on a every 2GB SD card
- Very smooth UI
- Auto mount USB
- Boot’s up very fast
- Boot’s up XBMC automatically
- AFP support
- NFS support
- AirPlay support
- CEC support
- Lirc support
- Samba is installed by default
