I would like some feed back on how I can take a media player case I bought from net bios flash with tiny-core and set up to load xmbc from the hdd. Its a China made 2" case I'm putting a tb drive in I'm farely sure that it uses a pretty basic mtp sys on its on board memory its compat with many media types but I want to make more types accesable on it and I want the xmbc media browser on it it has ability to playback in hd with hdmi as well as composite/component and s-vid as well as vga using one output like an ipod just plug the cord you need in great for travel and automobile this is device specs http://www.espow.com/product_info.php?products_id=364

This sounds like a rather massive project...do you even know what the specifications are for this thing? Devices like this usually run on a SoC (system on a chip), so the first thing would be to find out what the status of Linux is for that SoC. Even if there is a Linux port available for the chip, you still need to actually get a bootable image written to the EEPROM.

That all assumes this thing even has the power to run XBMC.

It just came in today tested it on the tv its ok except menu is very generic it runs on 5.4v 1A power it does support firmware upgrade.
rmvb/rm play support RM/RMVB
movie Play mpeg1 Mpeg2(.vob,.avi) mpeg4 (aviDivx xvid mpeg4)
music play mp3, wma
digital photo jpg/jpeg bmp tiff giff support background music playing
card reader sd mmc sdhd
otg/host supporting mobile hdd cardreader thumbdrive
file editing functions w/o pc osd key
also has text file reader but have not tested which file types shows up on onscreen menu and remote options
video out pal,ntsc,ypbr,vga hdmi
subtitle support *.srt
break point memory function
stereo out
fm module built in

when opened to insert the hdd it has push button interface for all onboard functions power on/off menu enter up down right left

I have bootable iso of both tiny core and xmbc setting up tiny core would be my trouble I know that I should be able to flash tinycore into the bios and point it like this grub/tinycore point tinycore to load xmbc from the harddrive as default os to manage media

Tough chip unmatched
Netvio Mediabox 360 U.S. AMlogic equipment company RMVB dominated the second-generation chip, a speed of up to 600 MHz chip tough control with two strong performance unmatched. this is chip spec and device brand
