Raspi-Model-AB-Mono-1.png

The Raspberry Pi is a single-board computer developed in the UK by the Raspberry Pi Foundation.

The design is based around a Broadcom BCM2835 SoC, which includes an ARM1176JZF-S 700 MHz processor, VideoCore IV GPU, and 256 or 512 MB of RAM. The design does not include internal storage, instead relying on an SD card for booting and long-term storage.

XBMC for Raspberry Pi

Team-XBMC developers ported XBMC to the Raspberry Pi using beta boards supplied by the RPi Foundation.


Installing XBMC

The easiest way to install XBMC on an R-Pi is to use one of these pre-made OS/XBMC packages:

  • For Mac users, an unofficial installer for Raspbmc and XBian is also available here

You can also install XBMC on Raspbian:


Preloaded XBMC SD Cards

The Pi Hut offer SD cards preloaded with XBMC, taking away the need to install it for yourself. Simply plug into your Pi, and away you go.
