QUOTE

* I'm including the >>XBMC Win32 PC environment<<.exe that is meant for skinners & python developers, read more about the concept here. It was built using Microsoft DirectX Summer 2004 SDK.
* I've tweaked the win32 >>run_me_first.bat<< so it runs and then unmounts the virtual drives when you exit.
* If you want to report bugs, please do it the PROPER way, see http://www.xboxmedia...oper_Bug_Report

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-s...howtopic=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.xboxmedia...=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.xboxmedia...=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).

* WIN32 PC ENVIRONMENT INSTRUCTIONS (WIN32 FOLDER)
Good to know, this requires DirectX9 Runtimes to be installed. Also this doesn't work with all graphics cards.
You need to:
- Copy XBMC_PC.exe & 'run_me_first.bat' from win32 to XBMC folder
- Run 'run_me_first.bat'
- Run XBMC_PC.exe

* 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!

Being a fresh install, your userdata has all been deleted. You will need to use the ADD Source button to add all your sources again. Add source has been around for quite awhile now, and it saves people editing there sources.xml

Visit www.xboxmediacenter.com/wiki   if you have more questions.

[phistyle]

hmm i think i noticed something....I looked at an old build on my computer and noticed in the userdata folder that theres a sources.xml file in the old builds and this new build doesnt have one...that might be the problem

[Bomb Bloke]

Sources.xml is a UserData file. You shouldn't be deleting your UserData folder when you upgrade, unless you want to narrow it out as a factor when making a bug report.

It was removed from the SVN AGES ago. On purpose - There's no point in providing a list of sources to everyone that they may or may not actually have access to on their own X-Box. Set up your own sources, and then don't delete them in future.

(Note that you can still copy across the old sources file if you really want to use it).

[NineT9mustang]

Wierd, I'm experiencing an issue myself

When I have a source with multiple directories (Via MyPrograms), one of the directories doesn't find the XBE

Example:

In MyPrograms, I have my 'Xbox Games' source I added, inside that source it points to 2 directories: F:\Games\ and G:\Games
It listed all the games of both F and G... BUT, for all the games in F it shows the folder of each game, not the XBE with its TBN Icon... and if I click the folder, theres nothing inside
Whats wierd is it will show my G games just fine with the wide icons and all... but F is another story

It could be my end, but I doubt it, ill do some more testing now, just wanted to let you guys know in case anyone is experiencing the same problem...

EDIT: Somewhat of an update, I even tested having 2 sources... 1 for my F Drive games, and the other for my G Drive games, both show the files just fine (Using 2 seperate sources). BUT, When I only use 1 source and combine the 2 directories, thats when it only shows the folders for the F games...
