It was then that I came across MediaTomb and the solution I plumped for, Twonky. If the 360 didn't need transcoding then maybe I didn't need a PC. I tried with my Xbox 360 and that doesn't need transcoding.Īnd that's when it hit me. I experimented with this by installing TVersity on my MSI Wind clone (Atom 1.6ghz same as the Eee Box) and it just (and I mean just) coped with transcoding. But for the Wii it needs to transcode the Xvid into an FLV (Flash Video) file before streaming that as the Wii cannot play Xvid. Anyway, I discovered a great program called TVersity which works with just about anything. I suppose (I realise as I type this) I could persevere with using my slim PS2 but it was too flakey and difficult to set up. I've been playing with streaming video to my Wii and Xbox 360 as I need a media player downstairs to be able to watch my Xvids. This time I had decided I could find a case for a new low power PC, the Asus Eee Box. Every time I want to find an excuse to buy some new kit I am thwarted.

This method is based on the Boot-132 process detailed on and should result in a clean install that will take updates without breaking and needing many re-patches. The current WindOSx86 disk install method is due to be replaced by a method that involves using a proper retail (untouched, unhacked) OSX install DVD and a custom CD. I also experienced the weird 800圆00 screen bug but after about 3 reboots that disappeared. A normal USB keyboard would have done just as well. This was 'fixed' by plugging in a USB Wireless keyboard I had (luckily) and then when the drivers had been applied the keyboard returned.

I had a problem with my keyboard being killed by the update.

The procedure is basicallyĭownload the 10.5.5 update from Apple website (or use the Update facility in the OS - I prefer to download as I may do it on other machines I got some advice from a friendly user on 's forums. However, Ubuntu supports USB booting and I only want to use Ubuntu to try Aircrack-ng so I will try Ubuntu on USB later.Īnyway, when in OSX mood I decided to update my OSX install to 10.5.5. Not sure if that is anything to do with setting the Owners on the stick but it was enough to kill the idea for me. I booted it up successfully but it took about 3m 40s compared to 1m 30s odd for the hard disk. Write speeds are slower on USB sticks so it took over an hour to install. I managed to install OSX onto an 8Gb USB2 stick I have. Having tinkered with Ubuntu and triple booting on the MSI Wind (Advent 4211) I came to the conclusion that it was easier just having one OS on the hard disk of the Wind (my main one) and others on USB sticks.
