* Since XBMC is in a FEATUREFREEZE at the moment, I've decided to make more than one BUILD per week.
If you want to report bugs, please do it the PROPER way, see http://www.xboxmedia...oper_Bug_Report
* Please note: Support for skins with versions below 2.0 has been removed
* XBoxMediaCenter.xml has been removed. Rootfolder shouldn't contain any xml files now. See this: http://www.xboxmedia...UserData_Folder , bookmarks are now in UserData\sources.xml
* If you are a translator, I'm sure Team XBMC would appreciate if you updated YOUR language file!
NOTEWORTHY, XML and SCRIPT CHANGES IN THIS BUILD
QUOTE
* added: all strings are now localizable. there are about 150 new strings to translate. final call to all translators, have a blast!

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-s...howtopic=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.xboxmedia...=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.xboxmedia...=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).
* 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!
INFORMATION from T3CH readme/nfo:

Not sure if anything else is broken?
Post by: jmarshall on August 28, 2006, 12:16:00 AM
The only skip that the DVDPlayer allows is skip based on the dpad (or remote arrows) which skips a predefined amount within the video.
It doesn't do chapter skipping etc.
Post by: jmarshall on August 28, 2006, 01:15:00 AM
I have 2 pieces of good news for you:
1. You are correct - chapter skip has worked for ages - I was reading the wrong section of code.
2. The problem is with keymap.xml - there was a small change to it that wasn't supposed to be made - open it up and take the <skipplus>NextSubtitle</skipplus> line out of the <FullScreenVideo> section.
Or, even better, grab the fixed version from webcvs:
http://xbmc.cvs.sour...iew=log#rev1.17

Jonathan

Excellent that it's implemented in XBMC though. As a windows application it was sort of useless, this is perfect though.

This new feature only works on ISO/IMG DVD's?! Didn't work on a inserted DVD in the DVD-rom player I tried, so it's possible there are some issues with this particular title(didn't have time for more testing...)

Is the new font (Gothic.tff) in the latest CVS? I tried it but all I get is DEFAULT & Arial.TFF in the settings
No this font isn't in CVS, nor will it ever be, because it's a commercial font, just used to show the difference in the RENDERING

Yes, put them in the /media/Fonts directory, and add a custom fontset to Font.xml in the skin you are using.
Info in the manual here.

In an earlier version (14-08-2006) I could stream dvds from my NAS without a problem.
Since version 22-08-2006 I get al kinds of artifacts with the same dvds, same NAS.
Post by: Joshatdot on August 29, 2006, 03:49:00 AM
For instance Drowning Pool - Sinner (folder name) becomes Sinner (Advance) - Drowning Pool when searching Allmusic.com DB, and it does not show any artists related to the name Drowning Pool in the list for me to choose from.
If you want a Debug log file I can post one .. same thing happens with System of a Down - Toxicity
edit - It was the mp3 id3 tags...I changed them, and it found Drowning Pool: Sinner ... but it did search them backwards on that status window when searching.

well the problem is that if a bookmark/resume point of one dvd is used on another dvd, you would crash the dvdplayer. so either we must store it per dvd based on some name or we must make sure it is cleared when the disk is ejected.

Okey, but how do you solve it on avi's and other video files? there have to be a refrence in a db?! If not, cleared when ejecting is ok for me... :-) I would think that volume name on dvd's is enough to keep them apart?!

and those didn't occure in earlier builds? and not if you transfer the dvd to the xbox's hd?
i think there is "yet another" bug in the samba client.. like i told a fellow dev.. i seem to just shuffel around the troubles between different lan drive users between each samba upgrade
Post by: Patman666 on August 30, 2006, 11:44:00 PM
Right, dvds played perfect on earlier builds, problem started on T3CH 08-22 build.
Also, when I copy the dvd to the Xbox HD, it plays perfect.

I can't play any of the shoutcast stations either, i have tried atleast 100 stations. They worked in earlier build, but not anymore. I will post debug log later.
I tried 2006-08-06 build, it took afew tries, but most of the streams did play. When I tried the same streams on 2006-08-27 ... they didnt play.

Mebby Shoutcast changed stuff on their servers, and XMBC cannot interpet the PLS files anymore. I am going to try all the previous builds and see if they all give the same results/errors.

Before you release the final 2.0 version it would be very convienient to have an option to load a playlist from the Now Playing screen. The button could be placed right above the 'Save' button and be a shortcut to the playlists directory like the shortcut in the 'My Music' root. This would be for switching playlists or combining playlists easily while playing music already without having to leave the Now Playing screen.
Thanks for your time.
