XBMP 2.4 Poll

QUOTE (PToN @ Feb 24 2003, 08:47 PM)
there are some problem with the image when you encode the movie with the Pro features on Divx5.02, and i know that becausa movies encoded without the pro features wont show the blocks that are shown from time to time. The blocks are color blcoks but the colors are like the colors in the playing scene, it is like an small section would freeze and then play and again freeze again.... It doesnt happen all the time but it does bother...

and i dont know if this is due to XBMP but after watching part of a movie or the whole movie when you go to the main menu to boot up the xbox not all the options are shown in the menu.. EX: after booting i dont see the systen utilities or the launch menu option... and the skin i am using goes to default instead of the one i have set...

just letting you know smile.gif

I don't have any problems with the movies I encoded with the Pro features.

config.xml updated w/ "scrollysuffix" tag. This is the seperator to
indicate the break for the end/beginning of hte filename. XBMS fixes.
The FTP server FINALLY supports going to root dir! Use its new FileZilla
Server.xml file to make this happen. Skin.xml was updated with a few
changes. Lang-1.xml updated with MANY tuples for OSD. This CVS also
includes an update from MomDad to say "Programs" instead of
"Applications" when on that particular screen. CHANGELOG.TXT updated.

Lastly, one more bit of excellent news. There has been some progress in
acheiving audio visualization in XBMP. A developer (kris) has apparently
ported a visualization library (goom) it to the Xbox. However, it has
_NOT_ been implimented into XBMP yet. For more info/screenshots on Goom,
their homepage is is http://ios.free.fr/?page=projet&quoi=1 .

This was taken from the latest (24th) cvs release of xbmp!so this means not long till we see audio graphics and stuff like that so you better knock that off the poll as it IS coming

DVD to DivX sounds like a quality idea. Don't know how difficult this would be, but it would be a brilliant feature.

I have an idea that is better than a simple Poll!!!! Have the XBMP dev team setup their paypal donations so that when you make a donation the dollar value of that donation can be applied to a poll item... Then at a predetermined time they stop and look at the current results... which ever poll item had the highest dollar value that is what the developers focus on!!! Then they reset the results all back to 0 and the poll starts again!!! That way people willing to financially back the team are the ones that they are listening too...

Just an idea...

Think I might send that one directly to the dev team...

This would get a lot of people on board who presently use HTPC's to scale video to these resolutions.

If only I could just play Geiss visualizations life would be so much sweeter! Kidding aside eye candy is a nice feature. Already I have to hand it to the XBMP team that your release rocks! Playing music and movies from stream is just the coolest feature on the box, period. Any new features or enhancements are appreciated!

On another note I found XBMP so cool that I'm replacing the Alpine DVD setup in my truck with an XBOX. Now how bout a touchscreen controller to work in the usb ports, lol!!!

So much for the Poll aye???? Looks like 50% of voters felt that Bug fixes were most important... What is the XBMP team focusing on? sounds like visualizations? Don't get me wrong, I think they are great... think they are doing a great job... hope they keep up the good work... But also think that if they don't want to know then they shouldnt ask???

I understand... Fixing bugs stinks... It is tedious, time consuming, its no fun and who gets praises for fixing bugs??? If you add a cool new feature everyone will be saying "SoandSo Added this NEW Feature!!!!!! So thank SoandSo for their hard work..." and you become a hero and blah blah blah... while the person focusing on bugs fixes some bugs and they say... "oh btw, that annoying bug has been fixed... Oh and SoandSo is working on another NEW Feature!!!!". Result? Everyone wants to be like SoandSo... forget the bugs, add some cool new feature, its more fun to code, its more rewarding to see a new feature than to see an old feature (work correctly), and all of the vocalized appreciation tends to be focused on the new features and not on the bug fixes...

I like new features too... I just think they should listen to the voice of the voters... People voted and debugging beat out visualizations 2 to 1... take a minute... stomp out all the bugs... get a really stable release with the current features... Then those of us who just really want a solid usable mp can have that and you can move on to new features and as you release newer versions just stop every so often to stamp out a new stable release... goto a beta/stable release system like many other dev shops... One is a stable version, the other verison is a feature rich beta version... as a beta version matures move it to stable then create a new beta with new features that are not yet stable... people have a choice... a few features behind and stable or bleeding edge and buggy...

Just my $.02

bug fixes seem like a good idea, i do get quite a bit of freezing, it has to do with browsing different sections while listening to music, or movies. Im  not sure ill see if i can figure out what triggers the freeze....what i really want is visuals, especially if we can use the winamp ones, and be able to download em without using the comp, that would be uber l33t
