XBMC-SVN_2007-08-05_rev9821-deff works fine here, never tried a T3CH release so cannot comment there but it can't do any harm to try another version to take that out of the problem.

Otherwise I believe it's something running in the background but seems strange on 2 different machines.

Maybe try a different version of xbmc with xbmc_pc.exe ? Apart from that it could be something running in background on your PC?

Try a different version of xbmc with xbmc_pc?

I think allot of people are thinking that the xbmc_pc.exe is an emulator that runs xbmc, this is not the case. Basically, xbmc_pc.exe is a pc version of the default.xbe. So, each time you update xbmc, you need to update the xbmc_pc.

Hi Deff, all,

Thanks for your replies.

I have tried the XBMC-SVN_2007-08-05_rev9821-deff build and with this version everything works fine.

I just updated to the latest head release, and I had to add some stuff to the xbmc_pc project to get it to build again:

PluginDirectory.cpp/h
xbmcplugin.cpp
NptXbmcFile.cpp
DirectoryNodeStudio.cpp/h

Shouldn't this be automatic, or do I have to do this every time the project is updated with new files?


- jmarshall - 2007-09-03 22:21

Those files (maybe not nptxbmcfile.cpp) should already be part of the project file in SVN.

I noticed the win32 build (t3ch) plays every type of video (not only dvd's) when you play the file using the internal dvdplayer.
720p x264 works fine, i have 25% load on my X2 3800+, that's lower then when i play the file using my default setup. (KMplayer with tearingfix, cyberlink h264/audio codec, haali)
Cool stuff.


so how does one compile xbmc_pc - modnar - 2007-09-10 10:31

I've seen a number of people commenting on their ability or inability to compile xbmc_pc. So how exactly is it done? I've got VS.NET 2003, DirectX XDK, and the sources. What now?

open tools/win32/xbmc_pc.vcproj

compile

mntz - cheers for pointing out the DVD player works.. I'll have to check this out when i get home from work.. i cuold have sworn this wasnt the case prevously !! Shocked


- ads_german - 2007-09-12 13:32

Mntz, I had been meaning to ask you about that too - I downloaded a new t3ch build about a week ago, to get the xbmc_pc version, and found the dvdplayer would play the audio from video files, but just display a black screen (i.e. no video)...

did you have to do anything special for the win32 t3ch build to play video?
