Adding new
video add-ons in
Raspbmc
Scroll through the list with the mouse or cursor keys, and click on an entry or press the Enter
key to access more information. To install an add-on, just click Install from the pop-up infor-
mation box that appears when you click on an entry in the list. This will download the add-on
from the Internet and automatically install it into Xbmc. Watch out for add-ons listed as
Broken—these have been reported as not working correctly, and should not be installed
until the problem is fixed by the add-on developer.
After you finish choosing and installing video add-ons, click the Home button in the bottom-
right corner of the screen to return to the main Xbmc interface. Now click on the word Video
in the centre of the screen or press Enter, and then choose Video Add-ons from the options
that appear. This provides access to your installed add-ons. Click on one to download a list of
files for viewing. If an add-on has various categories, it will download those categories first—
in this case, click on an individual category to see the files it contains (see Figure 8-4).
