media players with xbmc pre-installed?

[gman]

Hi,
Which media players come with xbmc? I see cubox i4-pro is one.
Want to know if there are better options.
Also, if i am only going to rip my dvds on to HDD and want to view them on my 'tv' thru a media player with a rich UI, what are the best options? Thanks.

You can try Pi which does not come with XBMC pre-installed but you can install any version of XBMC like Raspbmc, Openelec etc., I use the Openelec and its very good and stable, no issues to playback any kind of movie. Also the Pi can run on your TV's USB port, so you can permanently attach it at the back of the TV and with its CEC programming you can control it via your TV remote.
