I am running into two issues: Video Playback and Running Scripts.

I did a clean install of this build and removed all previous saves.

Here's my debug for the Video:

The scripts issue is not too big a deal for me, however the video playback is. Any help is appreciated!

I am having the same scripts problem with XBMC scripts but I believe the problem is the xbmcscripts.com is down since i can't get to the web site using a regular browser. Hopefully this clears up soon.

Small fonts !!
I have LCDTV - and i use mostly 720p resolution !! (1080i looks a little bit better but fonts are simply to small)

1.) How to enlarge system fonts ??
2.) When i'm playing DIVX - subtitles are to small i have to use code-page 1250 and only fonts installed are Arial 1250 -- the largest are 28 which is far to small ... i need cca 42,44 !!

Where can i get larger fonts??
ths!

This is a modification that was written by another poster. A lot of us use it for 1080i fonts and we asked that it be linked on the sticky thread index since it comes up so much but few have a viable solution. The search is down otherwise I'd just link it for you.

I have yet to run into any memory issues and I also frequently play HR.HDTV video which is somewhere between DVD and 720p native XVID with DD5.1 AC3 sound. I also don't think I used Myriad although I did put it in there. This was tested as far back as a release or so go, so it should still be 100% valid. Response was VERY positive and if you scroll back through the pages you will find the '1080i Fonts' thread which includes screenshots. Another bump for indexing the link in the master stickies would be cool too.

Good luck.

QUOTE

I've been experimenting with this myself. Something to keep in mind first....
running in 1080i will cause you to run into some memory issues particularly while running videos
(and also because of the use of TrueType Fonts I'm about to mention), this can be relieved by lowering
your cache settings and disabling rss feeds.

That having been said here's what I've got. The code below
should go into your Q:\skins\PMIII\1080i\font.xml. Notice I have created settings for Arial and Myriad,
which means you need to provide these two fonts in the Q:\media\fonts folder i.e. Copy Arial.ttf
and Myriad.ttf from your Windows Font folder, or dl them off the net into the Q:\media\fonts folder.
To use Arial or Myriad in XBMC, look in the Appearance settings and switch it to your desired font.
Hope this helps.

I fixed my video issue be recompiling the mplayer from the latest cvs files. Seemed to do the trick.

JayDee · « **Reply #20 on:** February 14, 2006, 01:49:00 AM »

I was sure i added it to the sticky (large fonts in 1080i) after the pm from ClintiePoo, but i must have forked it somehow...

Well, it´s there now atleast...

Hind · « **Reply #21 on:** February 14, 2006, 06:18:00 AM »

Im having troubles with the subs.
Ive put a .idx and a .sub and a .srt file in the same directory as the xvid movie.

I'm using the xbox remote

when selecting the subs i cant get out of the selection screen.

and the pages (of the adjustment gamma and subs etc) leave a nasty duplicate screen in the background (IMG:style_emoticons/default/grr.gif)

anyone have the same problem

if not ..

i hope it can be fixed

for the rest its all good baby (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Sweet. Very useful stuff.

This is a good build. One thing I noticed is that the Hard Drive temp in the system status (i.e. navigated through by the power off button on the dash), displays the Farenheit unit when you have it setup for that but the number itself doesn't change, meaning my HD is not 32 degrees F. It's been this way for a while. Obviously it's the most minor thing in the world but it's something I've noticed and probably easy to fix.

someguyofdeath · « **Reply #23 on:** February 14, 2006, 05:01:00 PM »

I'm not sure if this issue has already been addressed because I only have the build just before that one but when I goto MS Soundtracks, the artist names are just the numbers of the folder(ie. 0,2,5,6) and in the older versions they were actually the names of the artists. I didn't see it in the changelog so I'm assuming its still not fixed. Thanks and good work.

EDIT: I just logged onto the XBMC webserver and on there, the MS Soundtracks have the correct artist names and not just numbers.

I spoke too soon. Running 1080i, when I have music playing and go back to the homescreen all is cool and you get some visualization in the center. Try this with Snapsteam during a stream playing and it fubars everything - video goes bad into screwy lines on a black screen and locks the box - no recovery possible. However, if I stop the song first and then go back to the homescreen, all is fine. I am using the Menu key to go straight back to the homescreen (I think this is it anyway, I have a universal remote but the keymap is unchanged at this point). This is repeatable with all every stream I tried and multiple reboots. I guess I should probably report it on XBMC forums since it's legit.

I upgraded a few days ago and everything seems fine so far. I don't really notice any changes (but I know there are many). Keep up with the updates!

Evillvi · « **Reply #28 on:** February 15, 2006, 10:50:00 PM »

first of all just wanna say kudos to an excellent xbmc build.everything works great including the playlist issue i had except for one thing. i too am having problems getting xbmc scripts to run but i guess its because the site is down. my question is... does anybody know when things are gonna be back up and running?

You are saying that LArge fonts 1080i are inside latest XBMC (12 february) !!!
I tried everything but desktop fonts to small. For 720p is O.K!
