A new CVS build of XboxMediaCenter has been released today (May 2nd 2005) on Xbins.
Here is the FULL changelog since the April 1st 2005 build (last one posted on xbins/xbox-scene):
QUOTE
Included skin: Project Mayhem III - note that other skins may not fully work
Included scripts: QuickTimeBrowser (replacement for AQTBrowser), LaunchBrowser, GameSpotPlus, simpleKML (Web Radio) - all working as of 2005-05-02
ADDED:
------
* codec factory for paplayer
* enabled pcm passthrough in paplayer
* support for .tbn and folder.jpg images for music .pls and .strm files
* Initial Replaygain support to PAPlayer - only works from ID3v2 tags (non-standard) atm.
* APE lossless support to PAPlayer.
* Set Artist Thumb via Music Library context menu after an artist filter is applied
* "Play Item" added to Music Context Menu to support PLAY action in Files and Library views since the Play action is not mapped by default on the gamepad
* Play action in Music Files can be used to recursively play a folder using the temporary playlist (like in Music Library view)
* gapless mp3 playback. Files should be encoded with LAME (>3.90.3) in order to be truly gapless.
* audioscrobbler now saves a cache if no server is available or connection failed
* option to disable music visualisation (localized string instead of using disabled.vis)
* Support for AC3/DTS passthrough for dvdplayer and partly fixed audiostream selection from dvdmenu.
* Better VBR seeking for PaPlayer.
* selectItem method to ControlList for python, thanks to sambarza.
* New built in function XBMC.EjectTray for opening/closing the dvd tray.
* audioscrobbler support
* patch [ 1178392 ] Proxy support for shoutcast thanks to soepy.
* added workround for next chapter/prev chapter which reuse global action_codes
* Music is muted 9dB on ffwd/rewd with mp3 player.
* #define in Util.h to specify whether to build for skin version 1.3 or not. Uncomment this line if you want to test for 1.3 compatibility.
* Python bindings for built in XBMC functions. Based on SF patch [ 1175015 ] thanks to thor918.
* InfoManager labels: System.BuildDate and System.BuildVersion.
* Built-in functions XBMC.SlideShow(dir) and XBMC.RecursiveSlideShow(dir).
* patch [ 1182692 ]: Fix XBMC lockup with empty python list control selection, thanks to gimblefoot.
* new virtual window for dvdplayer when in menu mode. allows nicer keymappings.
* Support to toggle new time/progbar display in fullscreen (default mapped to white button)
* Support for <width> tag in label controls.
* navigation sounds
* Progressbar control now obey's width/height. Background texture is used as reference to calculate scaling of other textures.
* the following api to HttpApi: config (access the configuration commands previously only available through ASP)
* Harddisk spins up just before the end of the movie so that transistions during stacking is faster.
* WHITE hides/reveals controls on musicVisualisation screen. Two options: either on or off. When off, the song is faded in + out at beginning and end.
* Video playlists will cause the video to remain minimized when switching videos if it is already minimized.
* directory tokens which reference XBMC's special directories for use as bookmark paths: $HOME, $SUBTITLES, $THUMBNAILS, $SHORTCUTS, $ALBUMS, $RECORDINGS, $SCREENSHOTS, $PLAYLISTS
* Support for <execute> tag in keymap.xml
* More subtitle colours (Blue, Bright Green, Cyan + Yellow Green)
* Visualisation now runs in a control. See musicVisualisation.xml for an example. Some visz's (Boxalizer) probably need redoing.
* Left thumbstick individual direction keymappings.
* Python patches [ 1166891 ] and [ 1176789 ] from gimblefoot.
* Skin files for popup player controls. Mapped to START by default. Users of other skins may want to remap START back to the stop action.
* <useAltTexture> tags to togglebutton + removed duplicate code (now derives from GUIButtonControl). The <useAltTexture> tag specifies a condition under which the toggle button should show the altTextures. Current valid conditions are: Player.Paused, Player.Rewinding, Player.Forwarding.
* Execute functions: XBMC.PlayerControl(action), where action can be: Play, Stop, Rewind, Forward, Next, Previous. Useful for OSD stuff.
* New dialog window PlayerControls.xml. id is 114. Can be anything you like, but I suspect you'll want to use it for actual playercontrols, as it is only displayed while something is playing! Suggest mapping to pop this window up on START. Does not display on the FullScreenVideo screen as we have an OSD for that anyway.
* a couple of emulated functions for dll loading
* Big List to the Nav Music view at the albums level.
* support for pausing and rebuffering completly before continuing playback when running out of data
* support for using a skinned progress control in fullscreen video to display current position.
* Search for .cue sheet underlying media checks for cuesheetname.mp3 and the dropping of the .cue extension.
* support for smb://username@server/share (ie no password set no longer requires the colon.)
