+ Killarny & Nuka1195 & Pikes AppleMovieTrailers (AMT) SVN pre-0.97 [scripts: Apple Movie Trailers]
+ BritneysPAIRS's ~110 choosen Milkdrop presets [visualisations: MD - BPs Selection]

+ Asteron's Tetris 1.0 SCRIPT [scripts: Tetris]
+ Codecs for mplayer [/system/players/mplayer/codecs/:*]


Special Note From T3CH:

QUOTE

* Sorry for the late build, my fellow XBMC lovers. I had one planned for the weekend, but SVN wasn't stable enough..
* I'm including a package of "Picture Icons" for use with new TuxBox Client, see _tools/PictureIcon.rar.
* There's no new mplayer TEST version since my last build, but you can still report issues with old TEST here: http://www.xboxmediacenter.com/forum/showthread.php?t=23969 It's located in the TEST subfolder, simply replace the 2 files in XBMC/system/players/mplayer/ if you want to help Team XBMC test it.
* I've also tweaked the win32 run_me_first.bat so it runs and then unmounts the virtual drives when you exit.
* I'm also including the XBMC Win32 PC environment.exe that is meant for skinners & python developers, read more about the concept here. It was built using Microsoft DirectX Summer 2004 SDK.
* If you want to report bugs, please do it the PROPER way, see http://www.xboxmediacenter.com/wiki/index....oper_Bug_Report

NOTEWORTHY, XML and SCRIPT CHANGES IN THIS BUILD:

INSTALL NOTES from T3CH readme/nfo:

QUOTE

* APPLICATION INSTALL
- Fresh Install: Transfer _whole_ XBMC folder to your APPS folder (or where you want it).
- Upgrade: Backup the XBMC\UserData folder. Transfer whole XBMC folder to Xbox.  Overwrite UserData folder with your backed up copy.

* DASHBOARD INSTALL (SOFTMODS)
ARE NOT COVERED IN THIS README, SEE http://forums.xbox-scene.com/index.php?showtopic=406656

* DASHBOARD INSTALL
- Option 1. Team XBMC's shortcut tool.
It's included in the _tools folder as <<SHORTCUT by TEAM XBMC.xbe>> + <<SHORTCUT by TEAM XBMC.cfg>>.
Instructions here: http://www.xboxmediacenter.com/wiki/index....=As_a_Dashboard (Option 1).
Rename the <<SHORTCUT by TEAM XBMC.xbe>>+.cfg & also EDIT the .cfg so it matches your config.
See APPLICATION INSTALL above.
- Option 2. Thanks to an app called 'Team UIX's Xbe Shortcut Maker v1.0' by JbOnE, it's now easy...
Transfer contents of XBMC folder (this is VERY important since the tool is hardcoded) TO "E:\APPS\XBMC\". Rename <<SHORTCUT by TEAM UIX.xbe>> to something your bios can boot  (see http://www.xboxmediacenter.com/wiki/index....=As_a_Dashboard or read your BIOS README) and transfer to location your mod solution boots. No need to fiddle with HOME tag anymore,  and future upgrades you need not to worry about this file (unless you move XBMC).

* WIN32 PC ENVIRONMENT INSTRUCTIONS (WIN32 FOLDER)
Good to know, this requires DirectX9 Runtimes to be installed. Also this doesn't work with all graphics cards.
You need to:
- Copy XBMC_PC.exe & 'run_me_first.bat' from win32 to XBMC folder
- Run 'run_me_first.bat'
- Run XBMC_PC.exe

* UPGRADE TIPS
If you're updating from a VERY old/bad build you may get issues. Follow these simple rules:
- Replace (FTP OVERWRITE) all files in your XBMC folder with fresh ones from your new build
- Delete old settings (from UserData/guisettings.xml)
- In some rare cases some of the database files in UserData/Database/*.db may need manual deletion (usually if they are very old). Note: This loses all per file settings you made with the old build!

2007-02-17 7848 added: code to handle 1ghz cpu (model = 8, stepping = 6)

   Much thanks guys!

[capboy210]

Hah thats just cool, Big thanks for the hdtv support thats indash!

[jorwex]

2 questions

1) why do the t3ch releases vary in size so much from release to release? The previous one is 67 megs, and this one is 54 megs. not a complaint by any means (GREAT program)--just curious

2) what does the 1.0ghz support mean? for people who replace the (700 mhz i think?) stock cpu with a different one? do people actually do that?

thanks

Click on #2 in my sig

[jorwex]

any insight as to the size difference?

[hawkolugy]

Ever since version 2.0 i have had skipping problems with some xvid files will this fix it?

Recent T3CH builds have included the in-testing MPlayer build, this one does not. Also, the last release had the MC360 skin bundled with it.

[Maverick-DBZ-]

Does he still do the upgrades? If not is anyone else doing them and is trust worthy?


Thank for the new build T3CH!  

[xanataus]

Hi,

How can I view the latest changelog for the PM3 skin ?

Thanks in advance.
