Cool another update, can someone please tell me how to sort my roms into sub-directories like csp1, csp2 etc. I was told to use the shell operation but I just don't see how to do it.

I just did it manually. It would be nice if there was an easy way to do this automatically though.

Is anyone have problems running this version of pro on HD, every time I try to change the video mode it freezes and I have to reboot, I also have the latest fbaxxx and it runs fine on HD so I know my xbox is setup for 720p and 1080i correctly. I am using the component cable to connect it to my tv. When I try to play a game in default 480i the picture is stretched way beyond my screen where only the top left corner is viewable on my screen.

I get the same sort of stuff. I've found that you can switch from 480i/p to HD at any time just fine. But if you try to switch back from HD to 480i/p the emulator will lock up if you are at the emulator dashboard. If you switch back to 480i/p while a game is loaded it will not lock up.

Also, the emulator seems to be remembering screen adjustment settings for games that have been run before and applying them incorrectly when switching video modes. For example, if you are running a game at 480p and then switch to HD it will look fine... but if you switch the same game back to 480p then you will only see a small corner of the game screen... it looks like you are zoomed in on one corner of the game.

Also, the main emulator dashboard is messed up in HD. The background shows up small in the upper left hand corner. It looks like it's still being displayed at 480p on the HD screen instead of being stretched to fill the background. Also, if you look at the ROM zip name as you cycle through the games you will see that the previous ROM named are staying on the screen, the new names just get overlaid on top of the previous names.

I haven't tried the official Logic Sunrise built yet so I'm not sure how those issues compare to Pros.

I am also having problems getting fbaxxx pro 1.27/1.28 to change HD modes.
The xbox hard locks everytime i try to change it.
fbaxxx pro 1.26 works fine though.

Make sure your Xbox is set to widescreen in the MS Dash. The HD modes will lock up every time otherwise.

How did you get the background to display across the whole screen? When I switch to HD the background image only shows in the upper left hand corner. Did you have to create your own backgrounds to match the HD resolution?

there is a 720p and 1080i skin in the pack, you should note that the background image was resized, the rest of the values are calculated automatically.

[dre74]

There is no 720 or 1080 skin in the pro pack just the default screen.

I reinstalled 1.26 and saved the ini file then reinstalled 1.28 and it works in 1080i but like stated before the screen is very small on the top left corner. I put the 1080 skin that gogo provided in his version with a different picture but I had to stretch it using the adjust screen to fill the screen but some of the games looked stretched. Hey gogo looking through the xml file in your skin I noticed you can put music on the menus, in what format does the music file have to be?

Ahh.. OK. I didn't realize there were new skins.

FBA-xxx Pro is one of those excellent things that make the Xbox well worthwhile to keep.
I don't know if the author comes around here, but if he/she does, a massive thanks for me.
Great job, well appreciated

A big thank you to the FBA-xxx authors as well, of course, I only use the "Pro" version since it's more convenient to use for me (i.e. I tend to keep updated ROMs anyway.

To conclude: thank you!
