strange i've had no probs apart from music skipping sometimes when using settings

for the flicker, goto system->settings->video and filter level from 0 to 1 or 2 and save the settings

as for the lock up on submenus and apps loading- i know he said you can use your old config.xml but generally i always completely delete an app (keeping a back up of the old conifg/settings file) and edit the new one

I had no problems- the skins integration is not really a bug either- a lot of skinners have not uploaded they're strings in a format that unleash can handle (the skin has to have a folder and in that folder there has to be a skin.xml or if using zip files, there has to be a skin.xml file in the root of the zip, which itself has to be the root of the skin folder). there are alot of skins that either have multiplesub folders or differen skin.xml's that are slightly renamed to give the end user different options for the skin (e.g. G: support/ preiview vids/ etc.)

Msdashboard text for launching msdashboard has a bug. pressing start letting yu edit the icon pic image will let you choose the png file but will not save.
And any of the other main page apps under the editing the icon is greyed out.
Under Apps, the editing icons are working fine.

The problem of locking up on submenus - I've seen this myself, usually on "Applications". I've tried to pinpoint the cause by deleting one app at a time, and it seems that sometimes scanning "complex tools 1.6" kills it. Deleting complex tools has definitely improved matters anyway.

Another theory I was working on was that if you're logged into FTP and looking at the apps directory, that would make it crash. I'll try a few more iterations of testing to pin that and the complex tools theory down.

BTW am running bert/ernie reloaded on a no-modchip xbox with PBL1.4 and Evox 4979.06 BFM bios.

for me it happens in Emulators and Apps mostly, happened once in games... I do have complex tools (latest version), but somehow doubt its the problem (but who knows)...

happens whether Im logged into FTP or not, so its not that for me.

I dont like to do this but i need to find a copy of the new version.

Ive looked on the usual places (irc.z.....) but i can only see the older versions. Ive looked on all the bit torrent sites i know, without luck.
Could someone please pm me details of where i can get it??
Its sooo frustrating. I have been looking forward to the new release, then it comes out and there is a massive thread about how good it is. And i cant find it

If im not allowed to ask this then UnleashX i apolagise and please delete it.

Well, yesterday the screensaver xmv I made worked; now that I go to show it to people, it doesn't come on no matter what interval I put on. The only difference is what room its in, and that there's 2 controllers plugged in instead of 1.

And as for that blue screen that suddenly pops up between the fade and the skin load; what's the point of having the logo fade out all neat to a black screen, and then jumping to a blue screen before loading the skin? Why not have the interstitial color be black as well, or be able to be set in the options somewhere, since I'm sure that there's going to be some yutz who just can't get enough of the blue screen, now that I'm against it.

Also, the loadingpicture fades in from black, whereas before I thought it faded in from the previous screen. Fading from black doesn't look too good on most things, I find.

I had the same problems:

the filtering = 1 fixed the flickering
deleting complex tools fixed the menu locking up

Keep up the good work, UX; it is very appreciated.

If I might also register my concern with keeping UX data in E: with the savegames outside of config.xml, I personally don't like the idea. Whereas for some reason the gamesave manager didn't delete anything but the UX data (perhaps covered already, I haven't been around lately) it did kill the UX data when I told it to, which brought back my screensaver until I turned it off, which now the screensaver doesn't come up.

So if possible, would you be able to make the config.xml contain everything, with no reliance on E:? It's be better for those of us who use UX as a default dash for installs as well.

2) ntsc/pal switching works fine, but.... if i restart xbox, it stays in last used video mode, and this is very annoyning because xbmp won't start then (i have pal xbox 1.1 and therefore i use xbmp in pal mode)

thanks for any advices
