I'd like to see the id3 version 2 tags. The current player is only showing the v1 tags which is bugging me as most of my mp3s only have the v2 tag.

I also would like to see a sleep timer!

*Note sure if these have been suggested already or are implemented in current version*
A way to zoom in on a Divx/DVD/etc while paused.
Ability to run XBMP as your desktop, I have a Xbox I only use media player with, would be nice if it would autoload.
Play a DVD from Media Player(Not sure if this works or not)
Ability to manipulate files(Kind of like Boxplorer in MP)
FTP support
Way to set it to play random in a directory, and not just playlist
Visual junk, like WMP and Winamp has, the trippy stuff, not skins
To play the extracted .dat files from SVCD and VCD
More custimization with the menus(HAven't checked if you can do this much)
Perhaps a better fast forward, like skip 1/4 ahead or something?
DTS support
Maybe a screenshot for movies?
Ability to stretch the screen

Offtopic kind of, but can you replace the Xbox DVD with a regular DVD to play cd-r/etc if you don't want to play games?

Awesome work with what you've done with it so far, I really enjoy it~

you've almost posted a straight feature list. perhaps you should go look at the latest version

giving name tags to the playlist files. have a selection out of a characterlist by going up and down. and go left and right for other characters

And would like to see flashing names with the yellow and red buttons in in main menu.

And this together with a really nice xbmp skin that looks a bit like Windows XP

I'd like to see xbmp scan all my mp3's like other pc jukebox programs and cache the id3 data. This would save all the connection slow downs associated with the id3 tag.

The one thing I would like to see is real DVD playback like in DVDX the like. It would be nice to set XBMP to autoplay DVDs in Evo X.

Full IMDB information, not being able to see the rating is really annoying.

The controler controls are just wacky. This is what I think would be more normal:
Green = play/pause
Red = stop
Thumbstick left/righ = ffrw/rew
Directional pad right = 1x speed 2x speed 4x etc
Directional pad left = 1/2 speed etc
Directional pad up/down = volume
ETC...

I love being able to access subtitle and audio/video sync directly but I still think it would have to be moved. I really havn't thought this thing through, just making a point

As I mentioned earlier in this thread I would like to be able to see bigger thumbnails of my movies. So I can select a movie based on its cover, the thumbs are so small you can't see them really.

Anyway, I love xbmp, I will donate some $. And thanks for all the bugfixes in the passed few releases. It's really looking good.

EDIT: one more thing, I only upgrade every 10 days or so. Whats keeping me from doing more frequent updating is the config file. I think its kind of odd that you can't change all these things in settings inside xbmp. Would probably take forever with all the letter scrolling involved but it would still be easier and more convienient.

2. Video FX for MP3s

BTW...

Great JOB on everything so far! Thank you!

Probably mentioned already but the ability for constant random playback of music files in a directory would be great

turtletrax · « **Reply #85 on:** April 16, 2003, 03:06:00 AM »

I would have to say crossfading of Mp3's. I have around 12 gigs of high bitrate Mp3 that is DJ mixed and the breaks inbetween songs is a killer. It would make my day with a crossfade similar to WMP 9 with more sensitivity if possible. WMP 9 will allow up up tenths of a second, but not perfect. Dont get my wrong, I would love tenths of a second, but hundredths would be perfect!!!

Then second I would have to say FTP'ing. I have my computer downstairs and my 'box upstairs. Sucks to have to run up and down. No big deal but this is an "if you had tree wishes sort of deal", so there is two off the top of my head.

Still it is an amazing thing the way it is.

Keep it up guys... You ROCK!

Hmm what exactly do you mean by FTP'ing?

xbmp already has an ftp server called filezilla. So you can ftp stuff TO your xbox from your comp.

If you want to play stuff on your xbox FROM your pc just mount a smb share or use relax.

Awesome so far thanks!
Visual effects
configurable xbmp startup to go directly to MyMusic > HD

xygan · « **Reply #88 on:** April 17, 2003, 01:44:00 AM »

also.. some sort of plugin that would allow audio/visual effects.. would be really awesome to make it work w/the plugins for winamp since they are already written.. also, if this is implemented, the ability to switch the mode of the effect & the effect itself with a controller

ellisdee · « **Reply #89 on:** April 21, 2003, 01:04:00 PM »

Id have to so winamp plugins as well and easier skin support!! and cross fading would b sweet as well. it would be nice if the config xml could b editied from the app as well. Prog Rox tho keep up the awesome werk!!!
