I'm after a 7 inch buy for an Original Pi and all I can find is one from Hong Kong

I know it's not a touch screen, and has a 9" 1280 x 800 LCD screen... and is not all that cheap, but some folks might find hdmipi.com of interest!

It was the subject of a successful Kickstarter campaign, and is now available to pre-order, at the same prices.

I placed an order for one right at the end of December 2014, and have just been advised that it is about to be despatched any day now! They have also made a modification to enable a Raspi B+ and also hopefully a Pi 2 to be incorporated also.
 
Just got myself a Meridian Explorer 2 DAC for my Raspberry Pi 2 :)

Got myself a raspberry pi 2. Installed OSMC via their installer onto a micro sd whilst I was at work, plugged into tv when I got home added my WHS sources and up and running - and with CEC my TV remote works perfectly.

What skin are people using on OSMC?

Had to mod my case a bit as I think the PI2 design has changed slightly but nothing a sharp knife couldn't solve.

That's normal, you'll have that fat partition then the rest is a ext4 partition that windows can't see

Cool, is there any way to correct this and get the full fat 14-16GB?



In other news, the OMSC is working great. I have added mine and my brothers Videos folders to the library so we can watch videos straight from the PCs which is exactly what we wanted. Now to find some of the nicer applications/add-ons (a web browser would be nice, anyone can show me how to find/get a nice one?) and possibly some other flim flam

Overall very pleased so far - does anyone know how to get CEC working properly, not only a few buttons? Only Start, Stop, Pause seems to work for me properly atm

Thanks
 
I think you can write a remote.xml and keymap.xml and transfer to the pi. You can't use all the buttons on the remote but you should be able to assign a fair few. There's quite a few files on the internet that people have already created so you can probably find them for your tv. Tranfer using WINSCP or something (think they go in home/osmc/.kodi/userdata/keymaps)

Can anyone recommend a powered USB Hub as think my Meridian Explorer 2 DAC is sucking all the power as when i try and use a WiFi dongle ever the Pi 2 won't boot or will lockup

From this - I can't get past step 5 as it says "tail: cannot open 'blah blah'
tail: no files remaining"

Trying to remap the remote buttons as the return/back button isn't working for me? Anyone got some help/links?
Cheers

Try this

PHP: 
watch -n 1 tail -n 20 ~/.kodi/temp/kodi.log

That'll get the last 20 lines of the log and refresh once per second
