Kickstarter backer here too, I want the open system you promised as well as a way to restore my system should it get mucked up. I think the simple "hold down the power button" method would work fine.
It is open, its open to anyone to develo…
If there are any changes to be made to the controller, I'd much rather see a raw input mode for the touchpad than any new buttons. If there were a way to switch the touchpad into raw input mode and people could actually use the proposed solution of …
Thanks, I'll try that tonight!
I thought the HW acceleration wasn't enabled because the OUYA couldn't do it.
It couldn't, not without proper software support. That's what libstagefright is adding (support for hardware video decoding, AKA hardware …
What's the right way to install XBMC?
There is no right way or wrong way to install xbmc, the only thing to know is what version to install.
I recommend looking here http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=OUYA
I'm currently using Gotham alpha 5 an…
Ok thanks. The same here. My model is OGC1 (under right cover). Wondering if this is the fixed version or not.
Mine says OGC1 as well, mine has firmware 1.3 (confirmed with the test app pattern, looks exactly like a 360 controller pattern).
I did get it, and it is the wrong version, (not the backer version). Since I bought an open console I want it to be an open console.
It is a open console, meaning its open to all developers.
No I am asking if folks with the same issue are using rechargeable batts.
No, I see no difference between using rechargeable vs using non rechargeable batteries in the controller (I'm currently using rechargeable batteries). The controller probably…
Can you guys tell me if you use rechargable batteries (1,2 V) or non-rechargable (1,5 V) ?
Are you asking can you use rechargeable batteries, if that's your question then yes you can use them.
Did you try removing and reinserting the batteries to force a recalibration?
Calibration has nothing to do with it, its a hardware issue in the controller.
Theres a little bit of slop before the return spring kicks in, and in that slop zone it doe…
This is why every game needs to have a Thumbstick deadzone setting. Many games that I have played have this issue where they either do not have a deadzone set, or the deadzone that they set isn't large enough.
My ouya (retail launch) controller wo…
My ouya does the same, you are unable to turn off the ouya from this screen. In reality there should be 4 options, one to cancel, one to put ouya to sleep, one to fully turn off the ouya, and one to turn off the controller. I can pretty much guarant…
The Home button is not a workaround, it is how the "Start" functionality is supposed to be implemented by games, and there are no drawbacks whatsoever with using it that way.

We didn't miss the point at all, you just refuse the fact that the above options are about the only way. Being that your monitor has a audio out, it looks like that's how you are going to have to go. Unless you move the ouya to an actual TV
This isn't no Genesis or a 20+ year old console.
This device uses HDMI, most HDMI TVs have either a RCA out (for stereo connection), a headphone Jack (can be used for both headphones, or converted into RCA with the correct cable to connect to a ste…
I would love to be able to see how much a game is going to be, it should be listed in the description. The description should also state if it free to play (meaning in game item purchases), or outright free (no in game store or anything). Or if the …
That's because when you power down by the controller its not really off, but just a suspend/sleep mode if you will. Clicking the power button on the system also puts it into suspend/sleep, the device isn't really off, and when you switch back to the…
I know people got in contact with them using various means (email, twitter, forums which they joined).
Also many went here https://support.ouya.tv/anonymous_requests/new
Any offline game that requires a net connection just to play I stay away from, just like FF3.
What good is a game to me if it wont boot when I take it to a friends house that has no net connection.
