XBian 1.0 Alpha 3

XBian 1.0 Alpha 3

Nov 24, 2012

We have released the third Alpha-version of Xbian 1.0! It contains some new important features. For example:  We’ve set-up a custom apt repository for installing updates and packages. Updating XBian is now as easy as updating debian packages. Just run apt-get upgrade.

We’ve also added the first beta of XBMC v12 – Frodo!
