Ok. I finally got it to load up. When ever the XBMC/T3CH logo shows it goes to black and freezes. At first I was totally confused and then I remembered I put this same build on my xbox and it did the same thing (poor xbox...r.i.p.). I'm going to download a new build and try that.

I am using XBMC PC to play around with skinning. I would like to experiment with wide icons before moving them to my XBox. I created a couple of movie folders and dropped wide icons in them. I renamed the icons to .tbn files. They still show up as generic icons in the GUI using the default skin. Do I need to scan or do anything special to get the wide icons to show up? Can this even be done?

bump, anyone?

Just clear out the thumbs cache (userdata/thumbs)

Huh I'm really banging my head on a wall here. I just got the T3CH build from April 1st. When running the XBMC_PC.exe it appears the SageTV script works. Trying it on the XBOX it does not fully work. The watch button does nothing on the XBOX, yet on the PC I see the video goes here dialog and the counter. The Pc log states :
Code:
16:56:34 M:1399848960   DEBUG: CPlayerCoreFactor::GetPlayers(smb://Pvr/recordings/TilDeath-WebbysNotHappySummerofLove-3720777-0.mpg)
16:56:34 M:1399808000   DEBUG: Playback has started
16:56:34 M:1399799808   DEBUG: CGUIInfoManager::SetCurrentMovie(smb://Pvr/recordings/TilDeath-WebbysNotHappySummerofLove-3720777-0.mpg)
I get no such entry on the XBOX log. There are no errros and it does not even show an attempt to 'play' a file.

If I am supposed to be using the XBMC_PC version to test scripts but they work differently on the XBOX, how am I supposed to figure out what is going wrong? Please, I beg of anyone, please help.

It's because the PC doesn't have a video player, so none of the video player checks are performed.

It's likely there's something going wrong earlier on.

Can the checks be implemented so I can get an idea what's happening. I mean it is wierd I get no errors on the xbox log at all. Even when I run an older version of the script that gives errors on the PC, I still get no errors on the xbox. Do you have any tips for me at all?

- jmarshall - 2007-04-13

Sorry, I can't be much help in that regard.

The players aren't implemented on the PC version, and many of the checks are usually done in the players themselves.

It could be many different issues - a full debug log may indicate something at least.

- kricker - 2007-04-20

Is there a better debug than level 3?

- spiff - 2007-04-20

3 is max.

Oh well, guess I am SOL. Sad

With recent exe builds, I'm getting winsock errors with certain scripts. These work fine on the xbox. I don't see anything in the log except for the traceback.

I've searched to see what the error means, with no luck.

Some of the scripts that work use the same urllib.urlopen() command, just different urls. Going back to an April 10th compiled exe it works fine. Sorry I don't have the revision.

The same script (XBMC Lyrics) will grab the lyrics online, but fail checking for updates to the script.

Read the readme that is contained for how to install/run.

This link doesn't work anymore. Anyone know the SVN URL or where I can download what I need? Is the info in a sticky thread?

I'm hoping to get into some python scripting.

T3CH includes it with any current build he/she does.

Im having a similiar problem when trying to use the SMTP lib on xbmc_pc. It crashes and sez "Buffer Overrun detected"

and in the log:
18:43:00 M:621314048 ERROR: ws2_32.dll: Unresolved function called (51), Count number 1

But it works fine on the xbox
