+[Yesterday night](http://fnordig.de/2012/07/05/raspberry-pia-guick-guide-to-a-successfull-start/)
+ I blogged about my first experience with the Raspberry Pi (forgive me the horrible typo in the title).
+
+
+I made three notes on what's next:
+
+* I need to check out [rpi-update](https://github.com/Hexxeh/rpi-update), for updating the firmware.
+* Get video playing done right. I did not fully test it, but the video in the second image above was quiet slow.
+* I want xbmc to run on my Raspberry Pi, because that’s what I bought it for: it should become my media computer in the living room.
+
+## rpi-update
+
+This is not needed on archlinuxarm, because there i a `raspberrypi-firmware` in the
+[alarm repo](http://eu.mirror.archlinuxarm.org/arm/alarm/)
+
+## video playing
+
+I first installed the default `mplayer`-package, but video playing was horribly
+slow, mp3 playing worked quite ok.
+
+Again, [@bl2nk](http://twitter.com/bl2nk) to the rescue: Use [omxplayer][] instead.
+Get the [binary package][omxplayer-aur] or just [build it yourself][omxplayer-git].
+
+Works like a charm and does not even require a running X environment. Just execute the following over your always-open ssh connection:
+
+    omxplayer -ohdmi -p video.mp4
+
+and use Left, Right and Space for controlling. Playing the 720p version of [Fight Club](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0137523/) works now.
+
+
+## xbmc
+
+There is no package for archlinuxarm (_yet?_), so I did not test it for now.
+There are specific Raspberry Pi distributions linked in the
+[xbmc wiki](http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Raspberry_Pi).
+I definitely need another SD card for this. :D
+
+## other things.
+
+Beside the 3 points mentioned above I got [redis][] compiled and running on the
+Pi! Well, it does not make sense to use a in-memory database on a computer with
+just 256 MB of RAM (and to be precise, right now I can only use half of that,
+the other half is used for the GPU). But as I really like the project, I did this for the fun.
+
+See the amazing [benchmark results in a gist](https://gist.github.com/3056659).
