INSTALL NOTES from T3CH readme/nfo:

QUOTE

* APPLICATION INSTALL
- Fresh Install: Transfer _whole_ XBMC folder to your APPS folder (or where you want it).
- Upgrade: Backup the XBMC\UserData folder. Transfer whole XBMC folder to Xbox. Overwrite UserData folder with your backed up copy.

* DASHBOARD INSTALL (SOFTMODS)
ARE NOT COVERED IN THIS README, SEE http://forums.xbox-scene.com/index.php?showtopic=406656

* DASHBOARD INSTALL
- Option 1. Team XBMC's shortcut tool.
It's included in the _tools folder as <<SHORTCUT by TEAM XBMC.xbe>> + <<SHORTCUT by TEAM XBMC.cfg>>.
Instructions here: http://www.xboxmediacenter.com/wiki/index....=As_a_Dashboard (Option 1).
Rename the <<SHORTCUT by TEAM XBMC.xbe>>+.cfg & also EDIT the .cfg so it matches your config.
See APPLICATION INSTALL above.
- Option 2. Thanks to an app called 'Team UIX's Xbe Shortcut Maker v1.0' by JbOnE, it's now easy...
Transfer contents of XBMC folder (this is VERY important since the tool is hardcoded) TO "E:\APPS\XBMC\". Rename <<SHORTCUT by TEAM UIX.xbe>> to something your bios can boot (see http://www.xboxmediacenter.com/wiki/index....=As_a_Dashboard or read your BIOS README) and transfer to location your mod solution boots. No need to fiddle with HOME tag anymore, and future upgrades you need not to worry about this file (unless you move XBMC).

* UPGRADE TIPS
If you're updating from a VERY old/bad build you may get issues. Follow these simple rules:
- Replace (FTP OVERWRITE) all files in your XBMC folder with fresh ones from your new build
- Delete old settings (from UserData/guisettings.xml)
- In some rare cases some of the database files in UserData/Database/*.db may need manual deletion (usually if they are very old). Note: This loses all per file settings you made with the old build!

Time to update

o The Drizzle o · « **Reply #2 on:** November 05, 2006, 06:09:00 PM »

they should add an update option to the dash where it can be done directly from the xbox...
or did they do that already?

Can someone help me out can't seem to login to the usual place to get the new release using FlashFXP this is what i get

[R] Connection failed (Connection timed out)
[R] Delaying for 120 seconds before reconnect attempt #1

Just wait a little while. You'll get it, give it a few hours.

As for drizzle, if they did have an auto update feature, it would cause more problems than it would be worth right now. XBMC is pretty popular and people would continously pound the update server and XBMC is pretty large in its own right. If anything, they may think about implementation after the next point release.

That would be a lot of data transfer.

Logically speaking.

^ sounds like you are trying to connect to the wrong domain to me.

Drizzle, cannot update from XBox yet. Maybe when XBMC Live is up and running.

What is snake? Is it the game?

Considering their is 50 max users on the current FTP server having this kind of feature would ruin for people that actually need to update.

The bandwidth used by people getting daily builds would be unreal.

If you get some servers that could handle this kind of load I am sure some one would be happy to write a python script for this.

smokyjoe · « **Reply #7 on:** November 05, 2006, 09:00:00 PM »

Compiled XBMC is ILLEGAL!! Source code is not. The XBMC dev's are doing nothing illegal by maintaining and distributing source code, but those who compile it are. For this reason, it has been stated by the XBMC team that there will never be an autoupdate feature.

Lamer123 · « **Reply #8 on:** November 05, 2006, 09:16:00 PM »

I understand not having an integrated feature but a python script would be possible. It would just have the commands that would download unrar and then delete old files and move in the new ones.

You don't need to use mirc for the XBMC FTP.

It works fine for me so it would seem it is something on your end. Currently 15 out of 50 connections being used, so its not full

I don't know. Do you think you did anything that they would ban you over? Did you download more than 30 files a day?
