XBMC
There are 2 versions of XMBC you can get now. v9.11 Camelot or XBMC4Xbox v3.5.3.

Xbmc 9.11 Camelot was released on the 24 December 2009, support for the Xbox has now been dropped. What you find here is an SVN build by T3CH which was released a 1st January 2010. So this is as close to an official Camelot build of XBMC that was ever released. This build does not include the new Confluence skin, however a version optimised for the low memory in the Xbox can be downloaded and used with this build.

Significant changes:

  • Revamped user interface via the new default skin “Confluence“
  • A complete reorganization of the settings menus uniformed across skins
  • Automatic video information extraction
  • All scrapers updated
  • Increased subtitle and Karaoke lyric support

Skins
XBMC4Kids preview video:


Setup/Installation
  1. Download [Click here to view this link]
  2. Place the XBMC folder inside the XBMC4Kids-master.
  3. Double click "Build XBMC4Kids.bat"
  4. FTP the XBMC4Kids folder anywhere on your Xbox.
  5. Place the XBMC folder inside the "XBMC4Kids-master" folder.

I would suggest leaving the "Enable individual save directories for each profile" disabled if you are using this as an application or only one profile.

Creating Profiles
  1. Load the "Manage Profiles" profile.
  2. Select "Manage Profiles".
  3. Select Add Profile...
  4. Enter your desired name.
  5. Now select OK
  6. Again select OK
  7. Now select start fresh, for both options.
  8. And Log out. (R) Stick pushed in.
  9. Disable Edit Mode if you wish.

What not to do
1) Change profile names after creation, arses up my script. (it will create a new save folder)
2) To transfer saves over to a new profile, change the folder name & the *.profile file inside the directory.

Example:
Profile name Connxtion, but I want to change it to Rocky5 & keep my saves.
I find the "UDATA Connxtion" folder in "E:\" & I rename it to "UDATA Rocky5"
I now rename the "Connxtion.profile" file inside to "Rocky5.profile". Done!

Updated OP to include XBMC4Xbox project information. I'll have to fully update the OP with the information but for now there is a download link the XBMC4Xbox v3.5.3 which was released in 2017, compared to the XBMC Camelot v9.11 that was last updated in 2010.

EDIT: July 15, 2019 - Just added XBMC4Kids from JCRocky5 (aka Rocky5).
