I'm running Kodi and (I guess) the developers have decided that for things to run correctly you need python 2.7.10 (or so I've heard). That's okay. I'm going to replace the Pi with a computer that can run Mint. I'll be able to get 2.7.11 with a ppa. It is a lot bigger than the Pi though! Upsetting though.... I took everything apart and discovered that I need av cables. I got the microphone cable but not the speaker cable. I just realized something! I don't need the mic cable.
Hmmmmmm...
I can't get sound to work. The box is an optiplex755 is the reason it does not work because I need to have both speakers hooked up rather than just the one (I only have the video cable plugged in acting as sound. Further, there is only one output plug but two input. Is that the reason it does not work?
