Media X Menu version 0.9h released.

This is JUST a bug fix, no new features.

The MenuX compatability has been fixed and tested.

The MXMReadMe.txt for version 0.9h can be found on usenet in alt.binaries.xbox, alt.binaries.games.xbox, and alt.binaries.cd.image.xbox; find that, and you should be able to locate whatever else you need.

Probably too many to list.... the MXMReadMe.txt has all of the update history.

Here are the big ones:

* Screen saver
* Title screen - you can provide a title and subtitle for your discs
* full Xbox soundtrack support
* Highly configurable skin support
* Can use multiple skins, randomly selecting at boot up
* Can do Help screens for games
* Works on the hard drive (use as games launcher)
* Supports WMV8 video for screenshots, help, backgrounds, etc...
* Supports keyboard and IR controllerm, besides game controller
* Can auto-configure, loading game entries when games are in immediate subdirectories
* Open sourced
* Configuration done from XML files
* Game entry information can be self-contained in the game directories, allowing you to quickly mix and match previously composed collections
* Allows you to password protect specific entries.

Not sure if this has been fixed in the rel, but .9g had a bug that wouldn't see the screen shot files if I named them .JPG, or .PNG on a DVD. But it would see them just fine if they were .jpg, or .png. Didn't test any other extentions.

Hmmm.. interesting. It shouldn't matter, I'd think, what the capitalization is, but I'll look into that.

I wasn't aware that was a problem until now, at any rate. Thanks for the heads up.

It's normal that you don't find it here.

Well, try "the other usual places" heh heh...

I am working on the #xbins angle (for the MXMReadMe.txt, of course). Did you look in "Dashboards"? I haven't been to the ftp yet, but I think somebody is hinting something there.

I wouldn't claim that MXM is ready for dashboard primetime, but the pieces may be there AFTER 1.0 is release

Just one question BenJeremy? Should i be using this program as i only use evox and i works great and never fails but from what i read your program just add some other shit which i will never need,like pictures of the game and other stuff,shit all i want is a menu system that lists the game and when picked the game loads and add fancy stuff to the menu is a waste of time to me
