    Default Xbox Media Centre(xbmc) on your iphone

    What your Iphone was made for- the xbox media centre(xbmc) with the naxi-x plugin. This plug in will get you football movies and tv programmes(complete seasons).

    Guys i have updated this as a lot of folk have been having problems. Follow this tutorial in the exact order it is written and it will work.

    Of course your iphone needs to be jailbroken. Grab your Iphone and go into cydia and grab a free copy of ifile from repo.hackyouriphone.org/ Try and get version 1.9.1-1 its the latest and known to work.

    next in cydia goto mirrors.xbmc.org/apt/ios press the teamxbmc icon and install the xbmc-ios.
    This will put the xbmc app on your Iphone home page. Press your home button and restart your Iphone

    On your Iphone open up your safari browser and go to digital kaos and log in as usual then go to this very page you are reading right now and at the very bottom of this first post is a download link Navi-x_v37_6.zip Go ahead and touch it. It will give you an option to open this file in ifile so go ahead and select this option.
    The ifile system on your iphone will now open up and a box appears with two options zip viewer and unarchiver, go ahead and press unarchiver. A black screen appears and white text starts to scroll. Once the text stops scrolling press the done button on the top right of the screen.

    Alternatively on your Iphone safari browser and using google as your search engine type in the search bar navi-x_v37_6.zip
    it should come as first choice navi-x_v37_6.zip - google code go ahead and touch the link. Now the navi x download link comes up at the top of the screen, it says Navi-x_v37_6.zip 994kb in blue hyperlink. Go ahead and touch the hyperlink. You are now taken to a page that has an option to open in "ifile" go ahead and touch it. The ifile system will open up a box appears with two options, zip viewer or unarchiver- go ahead press unarchiver. A black screen appears and white text starts to scroll. Once the text has stopped scrolling press the done button on the top right of the screen.

    Press your Iphone home button and you will find the xbmc icon on your home screen. Go ahead and start it up. Let the app update itself it takes about a minute then press settings button on bottom left of the screen then press the appearance button then press the button near the top that says skin touched and change it to confluence. On the bottom right side of the screen there is a picture of a house go ahead press it.
    You will see see the appearance of the app change dramitacally and it now has a shiny new blue theme. In the middle of the screen there is a task bar, go ahead and scroll it to the left till the system button lights up blue. Underneath it there are some smaller buttons, press the settings button then press the add-ons button. Now press the button that says install from zip then press home folder then press the documents button. We now see the naxi-x_v37_6.zip button so go ahead press it and it will install itself automatically. A small box appears on the bottom right of the screen to confirm that it is indeed installed.


    Once again press the small house button on the bottom left of the screen and scroll the centre task bar to programs then press it.
    A button appears that says navi-x so go ahead and press it to start the program. This is how you will start up the navi-x plug in from now on.
    Press the button that says Navi-xtreme media portal, i reccomend the most viewed 24 hours and most viewed 7 days- enjoy.
    Remember youtube has some nice tutorials on how to navigate the navi-x interface and get the most from it.

    Another nice add on is icefilms. From the main xbmc menu select video then add ons then select get more. In the list that comes up, search for and instal icefilms. Once installed the program is accessed from video then add ons.

    Hi guys just to add to this topic don't forget if you have a Apple TV you can AirPlay to it so your tv shows whatever your watching on your iPhone/iPad.
