[app] xbmc on evo lte - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

MY TWO FAVORITE THINGS HAVE MARRIED AND DONE THE NASTY, XBMC IS HERE!
Well after the recent leak that XBMC was intact about to release XBMC for Android I couldn't hardly sleep and was like a.dog in heat. I am pleased to say that earlier today I was able to confirm that XBMC is running on the EVO LTE. I have done minimal testing as I.don't store a whole lot of media on my phone but I was able to.confirm mp3 mp4 (videos recorded at 1080 on my phone have audio out of sync) and TED Talks streaming.
Here's a screenshot.

UPNP is working just fine with my home server. This is fantastic and I can't wait for some of the bugs to get worked out.

---

I too have upnp working but the one thing that is glitchy is the audio. It's very crackly.

This is technically pre-alpha. Now that it's been unveiled though, I suspect that development will happen at a record pace. Here's the link to the XBMC post announcing android support for more info: http://xbmc.org/theuni/2012/07/13/xbmc-for-android/

What's exactly needed to use this app?

Volume crackling might be due to trying to lower the volume while in the app it seems to do something else when lowering the volume while in the app try raiseing the volume till its bar is maxed for normal audio

I built XBMC from source a couple days after the announcement from the XBMC team. Been running it on my hardware version 003 EVO 4g ever since with zero problems once I worked out the kinks. Something that will help with the crackling audio is to select the option to sync to the audio stream. It's under System > Video > Playback. For A/V Sync Method, select Audio Clock. Your video may play catchup for a frame or two here and there, but that's far less annoying than having your audio constantly resampling, and click and pop because of it. Oh, as a side note, XBMC didn't run worth a darn on any sense roms I tried. Even bare stock gingerbread was complete garbage for xbmc. However, on CM7 it runs smooth as silk. And you should deffinately run the "Touched" skin if you're using the handset screen to test, etc. Confluence is just too darn small on that size screen...
Now I just have to find a usable remote control solution, and I'll retire my EVO to the shelf between my DVR and Xbox.
Good luck!
