XMBC was changed to Kodi, though it's unclear if the RasPi version reached that stage. Simply install it and use the standard skin—it's likely the lightest option. Keep in mind the RasPi GPU isn't very strong, so streaming 1080p at a bitrate higher than YouTube's will probably not work well.

Raspberry Pi or OpenELEC are both platforms you can use.

Instead of choosing an ODroid-C1+, you might need to purchase an eMMC from HardKernel, though the performance-to-price ratio remains outstanding.

I’d search for a more efficient Kodi or XBMC setup tailored to the RasPi.
