Description

The Addons4Xbox Installer is currently the recommended way to install addons, however users have to install it before they can use it.

I have spent months testing all content available via the SVN Repo Installer and only iplayer is being maintained on the main repo. DanDar and t0mm0 keep their addons updated too on the xbmc4xbox-addons repo but t0mm0's are also available on his own repo via the new addons4xbox installer. Dan also has his own repo which is addons4xbox installer compatible.

The FEW that are still working via SVN Repo Installer (which haven't been superseded with newer main branch addons) I have added to my repo and edited so they can be installed with the new installer. Basically everything available that isn't broken is covered and is now available via the new installer, although if Dan wanted to keep his xbmc4xbox-addons repo he would have to modify it to the new layout.

I feel it's time to switch to Temhil's Addons4Xbox Installer method as users frequently get confused about why certain addons aren't working - usually because they are using outdated ones available on the SVN Repo Installer and not the newer main branch addons. We also have an Addon Compatibility List which is linked to at xbmc4xbox.org letting users know of any issues with main branch addons on xbox (ACL link at top of page).

The current Addons4Xbox Installer can be found here http://passion-xbmc.googlecode.com/files/Addons4Xbox%20Installer-0.9.2.zip
