Actually I think it will work on Google TV. installing XBMC doesn't require rooting and will be available on the market (play) eventually so no need to side load.

"Today we announce XBMC for Android. Not a remote, not a thin client; the real deal. No root or jailbreak required. XBMC can be launched as an application on your set-top-box, tablet, phone, or wherever else Android may be found."

It is 100% NDK-based app. So it will not work...

Why is Google not bringing NDK support to Google.TV. It seems a lot of apps are prevented from being available for Google TV due to this lack of support.
