All right so here goes nothing...I've literally been at this for days and cant seem to come up with a solution if it's not one thing breaking its another but anyway....
First thing I used to have xbmc installed on an xbox which was easy enough to install. But I decided to install it on an extra computer I had at work. I decided on the LIVE option of installation as it seemed pretty easy and straight forward. This was 2 days ago btw.
I decided to install Aeon which I had on my original xbox. I never updated my original Aeon past the initial installation so there was A LOT of changes. All of which I loved. So obviously I wanted the latest and greastest (in my opinion) version of Aeon (Auriga). I tried to go here http://github.com/djh/aeon/tree/auriga but for some reason whenever I downloaded that version it was actually stark that would be installed, as I didn't have the "Multiplex" option available after installation. After searching for a day or two I finally (I believe) managed to get Auriga installed (I have Multiplex now) problem is when I go to the "Assistant" it's still telling me I have 0.9 (Stark) installed which is weird.
I'm probably giving you way too much info or not the right info for that matter but I thought I'd give it a shot. Anyway everything is pretty much setup the way I like it except for a couple things.
1. After I got Auriga installed my backdrops stopped working. They work fine once I'm in the "movies" or "TV shows" categories but not on the main page. It's just a black background no "curtains" just straight black. Over the course of the past couple of days I've managed to find out that I may need to update to the latest version of xbmc. Which brings me to...
2. How do I tell which version of xbmc I have? Since I installed it through the LIVE cd I just dl'ed the one from the dl's page (2 days ago).
3. If I do need to update xbmc how do I go about that. There are guides but most are for linux and windows. Is there a guide for updating live somewhere I may have missed.
I know this is a lot of info but I wanted to give you as much info as I know. If anyone decides to go through all of the crap I mentioned and can help me out I'd appreciate it.
Also if this is in the wrong place or I did/asked something wrong I apologize in advance.
