XboxMediaCenter SVN rev10582 build of October 21st 2007 compiled by T3CH

This is a complete snapshot of what was in SVN at the time the build was compiled, with just a few small additions:
+ Killarny & Nuka1195 & Pike's Apple Movie Trailers (AMT) SVN pre0.99.2 rev1567 [scripts/Apple Movie Trailers]
+ EnderW & Blittan's XBMCScripts Installer 1.8 SCRIPT [scripts/XBMCScripts]

Special Note From T3CH:

* Apple Movie Trailers (AMT) script updated to pre0.99.2 rev1567; New this time around is support for multiple trailers (per movie), Actor thumb display (loaded from XBMC Library) support and an updated Movie Theater plugin that now also supports XBMC's Library.

* I'm including the >>XBMC Win32 PC environment<<.exe that is meant for skinners & python developers, read more about the concept here. It was built using Microsoft DirectX Summer 2004 SDK.
* I've tweaked the win32 >>run_me_first.bat<< so it runs and then unmounts the virtual drives when you exit.
* If you want to report bugs, please do it the PROPER way, see http://www.xboxmediacenter.com/wiki/index....oper_Bug_Report

INSTALL NOTES from T3CH readme/nfo:

* 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-scene.com/index.php?showtopic=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://xboxmediacenter.com/wiki/index....=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://xboxmediacenter.com/wiki/index....=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).

* WIN32 PC ENVIRONMENT INSTRUCTIONS (WIN32 FOLDER)
Good to know, this requires DirectX9 Runtimes to be installed. Also this doesn't work with all graphics cards.
You need to:
- Copy XBMC_PC.exe & 'run_me_first.bat' from win32 to XBMC folder
- Run 'run_me_first.bat'
- Run XBMC_PC.exe

* 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!

Couldn't agree more, I love XBMC too. Thanks devs

[gronned]

It's like the only program still active on the xbox 1, and it still delivers as it hasn't found it's peak yet(which it obviously has, of course).

Major kudos to the devs!

Thanks Very Much for the Great Builds guys

1 Question...

On BUILD XBMC-SVN_2007-09-30_rev10387-T3CH (I think 80% Sure ) using the IMDB Scraper when I select get thumb etc.. the IMDB scraper used to give me more than one picture for the movie which was really good but now thats gone, I tried for loads of movies and it worked.. it basically gives you loads of different thumbs for a single movie one time.

I dont know is it an IMDB scraper thing or XBMC, I really liked that feature. I havent tried this latest build yet but I'm sure some one might know about this.


Many thanks.

i love my xmbc

I agree.
Thanks to all involved.
While XBMC keeps going from strength to strength I have no need for any other console.
XBox 1 + XBMC = Top Notch Media Center
