Xbmp Auto-off
« on: May 18, 2003, 01:00:00 PM »

I used the search button but couldnt find any info about this, i seem to remember some kind of talk about an auto-power down timer for xbmp, like if it is inactive for a set number of minutes or hours, the xbox will shut off. I really want this feature so i can just shuffle my mp3s and play them as i go to sleep.

I havent updated my xbmp in quite a while, i was just wondering if this feature was in the latest version.

he got this spot on!
It ws probably me talking about it i love it, you can listen to a bunch of mp3s as you drift off and not worry about a xplosion. This is a great feature in my opinion!

i have tried this and it seems to work if you are idle within XBMP i.e. not playing mp3.

do you have to tweak . . .

<sensitivity>0.2</sensitivity>

if playing media?

<sensitivity>0.2</sensitivity> is how fast the "controller" should move in xbmp.
0.2->0.4 usually works best
