Bro, found the below thread, tested in my Q5 and it works. Just direct copy the file "playercorefactory.xml" to the folder /sdcard/Android/data/org.xbmc.xbmc/files/.xbmc/userdata.

http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=153734

P/S: /sdcard/Android/data/org.xbmc.xbmc/files/.xbmc is hidden folder, if your file manager could not see the file please deactivate "show hidden file". Recommend to use ES File Explorer if you could not find the folder.

Not much chance to play with the launcher, need to retain the Himedia default launcher to support my customers and simulate the scenario base on the default environment.

yeah i understand, need default launcher for inexperience or new user for android
i'll definitely try the xbmc solution later, as for file browser i recommend root browser
thanks for the tips bro
