Awesome!

Got to love the open source community (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I know beggars cant be choosers, but i really hope that the indexer could incorporate trailers and fix the bug that some games are running into. But for now i´m just hoping that someone will post the whole trailer pack to usenet (:

we could use fsindexer or use freestyle to get info.

and weather
start with small stuff, and then big stuff (mplayer port )

[hfmls]

u guys are genious!!
colour system regarding temperature is awsome!
also fan speed adjustement without rebooting! priceless! also i watched CPU color fading from red to orange once i adjusted fan speed up! hehe really nice.

this is getting so good!
can u change mode info is displayed? more "pretty" ?
temps,profile,time,disc space

congratulations, u guys are really good. without u we would have nothing to put in out jtag console
btw:
i have the oldest xbox360, the one without HDMI (dont remember the name)
5 minutes with freestyle dashboard in IDLE and my temps are:
CPU: 59.5 ºC
GPU: 42.5 ºC
RAM: 43.1 ºC
MB : 18.3 ºC
fan speed: 80% (i allways used 60%, but since i play with z-5500 logitech surround i can go up to 80% )

is this good? or, not RROD risking

[Knasen]

i have a jasper with hdmi

and my temps without any fanspeed adjust in Freestyle (3-2 release) is

CPU: 58-60 ºC
GPU: 55-57 ºC
RAM: 55-59 ºC

I wonder why is it so much higher then yours on a older board?

this is with room temp is around 20-21 ºC

[farntheplaya]

wait what!

your room tempture is at 80 degrees celcius??


that is super hot. water boils at 100! and our body temperture is around 40 im pretty sure you got your units mixed up

[hfmls]

i dunno mate :S all i can says is that it came from microsoft warranty and i removed the metal case in the top so i can fit a 2.5 HDD over DVD drive. also i removed some plastic imperfections in top case otherwise i couldnt get xbox360 to close. other than that i dunno.

[farntheplaya]

[Mycah]

Can anyone post some screenies / youtube vids of it in action?

[kanknast]

wow. just wow. big steps being taken all the time by the freestyle crew.  this looks great.  i know what i'll be doing when i get home from work.

also, +1 for the idea of incorporating the indexer into the dash.  that would be rad to be able to connect the box directly to the fsindexer art source and download straight to console.

[GTRagnarok]

Development is going so fast, this is great. Yeah, the integrated indexer would be sweet.

What's the default skin look like?

[Midnight Tboy]

well I posted this earlier in the other freestyle thread, but seeing as this is the most recent it makes sense to ask here instead

---

can anyone answer me this?

I currently have 2 external hdds that hold my extracted discs. XBLA Games are held on the main 360 hdd.

Now I currently have it set up to display the artwork etc from the USB so the fsdata is on the USB Drive. That way it would obv be indexed for that drive specifically to show only what exists on that drive.

Now......2 things.

1. IF I was to have my fsdata held on the 360 itself......when the freestyle is launched....will it auto be set to only display those games that are currently available on the inserted hdd? Could this cause other problems, ie by screwing up the xml report for fsdindexer each time the hdd is changed?

2. Secondly, XBLA.....now in my other posts I made and released a full XBLA preview trailers collection. At the moment I have it running off one of the hdds, and obv there is no problems there as such. But ideally I dont want to have to dupicate those few gb of trailers for each hdd I have to use (and each as get a new game).......so I'm wondering....and depending on the answer to if #1 is not possible.....to have XBLA previews/info set to gather on the main 360 hdd, and the disc based titles info to run off the usb?

Ideally I'd rather have everything held on the main 360 hdd as there is plenty spare space for that freeing up the more useful usb space....but I can foresee problems after running index for usb drive 1, and then inserting usb drive 2 it overwriting the xml files meaning that everytime I swapped the drive I'd in effect have to run fsdindexer again and again?
