The second tab, marked XBMC, allows you to install the nightly build of the XBMC software. The nightly build is so called because it is created from the program’s source code automatically every night, and contains the latest changes made by the software’s developers. As a result, it can have fixes for any bugs you may encounter—but it can also have untested changes that may make matters worse. This same screen allows you to switch between different versions of XMBC, making it easy to test the nightly build and return to the default version if a problem is found.

Finally, the System tab allows you to set a new password for the pi user account to secure Raspbmc for network access. As with the general-purpose Raspbian distribution, this password is set to raspberry by default. The System tab also allows you to disable automatic upgrading of the Raspbmc software. This should be left enabled where possible, as it will ensure you get the latest security and bug fixes delivered automatically, but if you’re on a per-megabyte metered Internet connection, you can disable the feature.
