I didn't do anything to pick or checkout a skin, so it must be the default one that gets checked out on the Linux port branch? Where should I be getting it from?

Can't wait to try this Mac-port out.
Would be cool if it could be used as a Finder recplacement, so the Mac can boot straight into XBMC.

Err... it's not a bad idea
But then XBMC should be improved in a very high way, but it's not a bad idea at all...
OFF-TOPIC! no feature/function requests please! - Gamester17 - 2007-12-13 13:25
Please respect that this is a development forum for developers/programmers, do not post request/suggestion for new features in this forum unless you actually are a developer/programmer yourself and plan to implement that said feature yourself. Thank you!

Sorry didn't mean it as a feature request, I'd love to help out with this Mac-port. I hope this makes it to the svn soon, just hope Xcode 2.5 can open xcode 3.0 files

I'm not sure (about XCode 2.5 Apple updated the XCode project format) but in any case, better update to XCode 3.0
It has some strange behaviours, but it's very cool when you config it

interesting, ...but I thought that libSDL took care of that? or will PortAudio for Mac OS X work like ALSA under Linux as a low-level layer for the hardware (leaving libSDL to take care of the high-level stuff)?
Exactly, that is the idea.

Generally I would like to get rid of SDL_Audio. Currently it is used only for skin audio.

The nice thing about it is that it is portable across a bunch of systems, and it's easy to just play a fixed piece of audio (like a skin sound).
However, Portaudio is very portable too, and would probably serve well, although it would need higher level code to playFile(...), etc. If the lower level Linux stuff had used it instead of ALSA, the port to OS X would have been trivial, and it's even portable to Windows, so it might be a good common layer. I used Portaudio extensively in a former job, and it's a solid bit of code.
