There are several methods to installing the HW Accelerated XBMC to Ouya, but I'm going to cover the "Out-of-the-Box way;" many people are having problems with USB mounting, so this is the easiest way. (Forgive the screenshots, I have no way to screencap my Ouya yet)

  • Step 1: First go to the developer section (the "Make" tab) in Ouya, select "Yes" or "okay" to enter the developer section.

  • Step 3: Go to "http://goo.gl/gkdvk" (it's just a symlink to "http://mirrors.xbmc.org/test-builds/android/xbmc-20130219-32e99c7-android-hwaccel-armeabi-v7a.apk")

  • Step 4: The download is 50.3 MB and depending on connection can take a while, during the download you won't be able to tell the progress unless you have installed Chrome or ES File Explorer. (If you have ES File Explorer you can just open after it finishes and install).

    And you're done.

  • XBMC will be under the "Make" tab, just run it. It runs 720p MKV anime files from my Samba NAS without a problem (on mine at least), and you need to be hardwired to the router; WiFi gives too much lag on HD movies and TV shows.
