XBMC for XBOX is not supported by xbmc anymore. Please check for updates on the related page at the xbmc4xbox wiki.

Obtaining XBMC

Note: This is a XBMC for Xbox specific page and does not apply to other flavours of XBMC (Linux, Mac or Windows).

Where can I download executable binary (compiled) versions of XBMC for Xbox?

Not from this site or any other site that are in affiliation with us, (do not ask us where either). Team-XBMC (xbmc.org members) only host and maintain the XBMC source code. For legal reasons, no Xbox™ binaries will be released from us or distributed by us until a legal non-MS compiler is available (so please do not ask for any files not posted here). (Note! XDK compiled binaries are NOT released or distributed by Team-XBMC). Do not ask or e-mail us requesting any Xbox files or asking where they can be downloaded from, thanks.

Note: For more information on builds got to Xbox-Scene.com forums
