Wip Build 561, Build 561 is out Options

[pcween]

hi! i dont have access to the WIP builds. my experience is based on build 543. please try the "download skin" feature of the current build. i always have problems when selecting multiple skins and then downloading them with the start button. it always crashes in the middle of the operation. i would really like to see that fixed.

WIP Build 560 is out.
*Fixed FTP client. It should now be able to connect to other xbox ftp server. Also tested with Serv-U

connection was possible before on u-serv ftp-server. what i can`t get to work (also on the 560er build).

i packed h-drive and d-drive from my pc in the accessable folders for my u-serv ftp-server. homedirectory is d:\
on this setting i can`t get to h-drive bei clicking the ".." to go one directory up. maybe there is a function in u-serv that my homedirctory is "root" so that i can see both drives at the beginning...

Build 561 is out. Fixed a few issues with FTP client.

[BIG34]

what is the ip for the latest wip's because the one on #unleashx doesnt work?

Hmm ok I now have build 561 and the bug I reported here about the filter flicker still stands the same even though you said on the 559 thread you fixed the problem. I will re-paste my bug from the other thread here.

... Anywho first off I went to change the filter flicker and it needs to be on 3 for me. When I go from 2 to 3 all the text goes slighty blurry. It looks blurry on 3,4, and 5. 0 is way to bumpy 1 is too bumpy and so you have to watch going from 2-3 to be able to see the text become blurry. If you are just looking at the screen you probably couldn't tell that the text is slightly blurry so its not a huge deal ... Also I left the flicker filter on 0 while I was typing this a the screensaver came on. When I got out of the screensaver the screen wasn't all jumpy like it usually is. But when I went to save it became all jumpy again...

EDIT: Just tried to select the default skin and it still won't let me confirm it. See the post I made in the above thread for more info about the bug.

You need to press Start on that one. Pressing A twice wont work.

[unleashx]

Pressing A twice works for me. Are you sure the screen saver isn't on when you press A the second time (it would be 30 seconds after activation before it fully dims down)? Because if it is, A and Start will be discarded.

[isaac_24]

All that happens, in my case, is that it doesn't treat the second press of the A button to confirm. It seems to select it again and the screens stays on the skin selection screen instead of closing. My screen saver is set for 5 minutes so I doubt it would come on while selecting a skin. It's only on the Default skin that this happens.

EDIT: Just to clarify, I was just confirming the default skin bug and not the flicker filter/screensaver bug.

So you don't get the filter flicker bug? Hmm I wonder why that would be. It is just kind of annoying because it needs to be on 3 for my tv but it goes slightly blurry when I go from 2-3.

About the default skin, I am absolutely positive that the screen saver hasn't come on because I have it set to play one of Jezz_X's awesome video screen savers (could we get a dialog like the media player file selection only for screen saver vids; that would be so nice ). So I know that the screen saver doesn't come on. I will try later tonight to see whether the start button helps but right now it works just as isaac_24 has stated.

EDIT: Just tried the start button and it worked fine. Rebooted and the default skin was in use. Must be a bug with confirming with the A button.

When ftping to ux, and with the led-colours turned on, when my screensaver comes up (a xmv) the screen just goes black, and then upon completion of the transfers (both up and down) the video is played quickly to 'catch up' to where it is supposed to be, then slows back to normal speed.

These LED colours are a great idea, i turn my xbox on (without a tv) and transfer stuff, so now i can see what it is up to...

This is a very stable build as far as i have been testing it...

Cheers,
Stuart

Haven't had much time to test due to finals in school and working all the time but ran into a bug with 651 when trying to autoupdate to 562. It would download the update and as soon as it finished, it would give me an http error and take me back to the dash after it said a server error. I rebooted and tried again and got the same result. I have a 1.0 4983.67 TSOP box. I don't know if this will happen in the next WIP build or anything, but it's just something wierd that happened to me.

[[BiA]FRAGMAN]

I had the same problem, but when running autoupdate through 0.36.0620A I was able to update succesfully.

Would it be possible to get a WIP 561 -> 562 update list so we know what is different from our WIP versions?

[unleashx]

The current update file for official public release is not compatible with WIP, or build 559 and up. I have yet to upload one that is compatible.

The difference between 561 and 562 is very small, technically. 562 contains very, very minor fixes compared to 561.

I'll see to it that a compatible Build 562 package will be uploaded towards the mid/end of the week. Or maybe a new WIP build that has the changes I posted in the official public release thread.
