HDMI is a input to your TV for high definition.
A Emulator lets you emulate something. You ever heard of a N64 emulator? People playing N64 games on their android phone or PC. A android emulator lets you use android on your pc, they are programs you can install, after installed you can open them up just like any other program and use android.
OS stands for operating system. A crack is something people use to get software for free. Most people who "torrent" software or download use cracks/keygens this allows the person to use the full version of the software for free with out paying. A Serial in the format of something like 666-666-66-6666 could be considered a crack. You just copy and post the numbers into the program to unlock it where you would normally put the serial you paid for.
Torrenting is P2P software. Have you ever heard of Limewire or Kazza? It's similar to that but a little different.

hmm... maybe I shall youtube this
Check out http://www.tvaddons.ag/ they have made it very easy. If you already have kobi/xbmc or another runoff of that application you can just do the configure step.
BTW I have this on my android smartphone and it works quite well and steams quickly on Metropcs

Just so your aware, this isn't some hack to give you full access to nfl channels. You're reliant on someone else who has the channel to put a live stream for you, which can usually be found by searching stream sites on the web, kodi just accesses those streams.
You're not guaranteed every game, or any game. And sometimes the streams are choppy, getting taken down, etc.
Non live stuff like televisions shows won't ever be an issue though.
If you already own a computer I really don't see the reason to put the coin out to buy one unless it's something you see yourself moving around alot. Ive always just kept my computer hooked up to my big screen and streamed directly from it. Just think of this as buying another mini small computer just for the task of streaming.

I bought one an hour ago off a friend of a friend.. Holy shit. It's like Netflix on steroids. Watching Bassfreak's favorite movie now, Jurassic World.
The only thing I don't like is the NFL streams are pretty shitty and I like HD sports. 
But all the shows I'd pay for cable for are all on there plus thousands of others... So it'll pay for itself in a month or two now that I don't need to get cable.. Still a lot of stuff to get used to, but I'm pretty happy with my purchase.

I have since been using the add on Navi X threw TVMC. It's pretty sweet for streaming live TV channels. I still prefer Cartoon HD for movies and t.v. series due to ease of convenience. If some thing is not on Cartoon HD or Showbox I know what else I can search to watch it on : TVMC.
Which add on's or apps have you been using for streaming?

I just added the TV4ME add on. It looks alright.

I guess I have just grown so accustomed to the Cartoon HD app. I have used a few other add on's however that let you use thumbnails. Some of them provide meta info.

I enjoy how Cartoon HD shows the imbd ratings and information about the show and whatnot. I did notice some of the apps in the TVMC do the same thing. I have not watched any shows on there yet so I can not speak for the reliability on how fast it loads. With cartoon hd things load so quick you can skip around right when you open up a show.
If you have not yet, check out the Navi X add on for you xbmc/tvmc app. Streaming TV has never been so easy.

I'm pretty new my self! I just installed tvmc yesterday.
However I would suggest installing cartoon HD. Waaaaay easier to use then any of those add on's if you want to watch movies or tv shows.
As of for streaming live t.v. Navi X is the best thing I have ever seen so far other than browsing the web looking for streams.
Since your news http://www.aptoide.com is a good website to get app's for free/ unlocked. You can install aptoid and find app's on there. You can also get Cartoon HD on there.
Lately I have been using Flash Fox pro to browse the internet. It allows you to view flash content while browsing on android you can get it on aptoide, so that's a suggestion if you want some improvements.

Once I figure out how to use it and add stuff, I'll do just that.. The..
So far looks like Genesis is where it's at for TV shows.. At least, shows that have already aired. (from my hour of experience)

Octopus porn 
The anime is awesome right. The actual idea of a real person and a octopus is a little far out tho, to me, what about to you?Lol.
