won't work for me.
I think its cuz I am currently using a horrible Matrox 4MB PCI video card from 1996. I tried to set up debug mode logging via AdvancedSettings.
here's my log output:

it hangs. This means my video card can't do the DirectX stuff that is called for by the program right? I have P,Q,T, and Z subst'ed correctly, and my logs are being written to my Q: location.

Do you need sp2? Or .net framework?
- blittan - 2006-11-18
Just wanting to say a big THANKS!! what an relife to do python scripts now
- jmarshall - 2006-11-18
SleepyP:
It could be, but it could just as easily be something else. Enable full debuglogging via advancedsettings.xml to see if there's anything else available in the logs.
mbay:
It does not require the .net framework, nor does it require service pack 2. All you need is directx 8 or later.
And yeah, I ported it - glad you like it
Cheers

I am getting nothing but freezing issues no matter what combination i am using.
Would it be possible for someone to map out how it should be set up on the pc?
Currently the folder i have containing xbmc is located on my desktop. The only thing i havent done is
subst q: c:\xbmc_pc
subst t: q:\userdata
subst p: q:\userdata
subst z: c:\xbmc_pc\cache
Honestly that's where i am lost which is where i am sure to be going wrong. Any help would be greatful.
- jmarshall - 2006-11-18
Have you read the readme that came with it? It sums it up quite well I think - if not, please let me know which part you didn't understand.
Have you executed the script that was named "run_me_first.bat"?
Open a command prompt and type "subst" to check that the drives are mapped.
Cheers,
Jonathan

once you run the bat file you should see 4 nnew drives in explorer and clicking on q: should take you straight to the xbmc dir
Also if you guys are running vista it just may not work its not been tested on it
- Nuka1195 - 2006-11-18
You may have problems if you already have a p,q,t or z drive.
Code:
subst q: .
subst p: q:\userdata
subst t: q:\userdata
md q:\cache
subst z: q:\cache
xbmc_pc.exe
subst p: /d
subst t: /d
subst z: /d
rd /s /q q:\cache
subst q: /dthe above shouldn't require any changes. This also deletes the subst after you exit xbmc_pc.exe.
Just save it as xbmc_pc.bat and put it in the same folder as xbmc_pc.exe. Then run it.

jmarshall: Ok, I compile my own build of the exe and grabbed the one you compiled, my question is, how did you disable the fps/free mem?
and I have notice some issues when I switch between apps, I will minimize it and bring it back up and when i click on it to reactive the mouse it treats it as if Im right clicking.. is that something Im doing wrong or something else?

How do I un-map the drives that the bat maps?
