Thanks!
Personally with XPRExpress I run default quality, NO LESS ! , and no-protect, not swizzled.

Thanks. So I 1) replace files from mod-package into the Aeon_Auriga_lite_Revision6 and then 2) run XPRExpress using default settings?

I've tried that, but the library views stopped working with the mod pack (totally black screen instead of multiplex view). So I'm back at the default rev6.

Thanks!

So I'm back at the default rev6.Yes there was a problem with myvideonav.xml something i had not spotted until too late but if you have your old skin still just copy out myvideonav.xml into the 720p folder of the new skin and it will work. either that or wait a few days for the next test release then hopefully if thats to peoples likeing then after a couple of weeks i will release the FINAL Version.
At least untill djh starts doing some updates. in the meanwhile i have other projects to be getting on with but i ain going anywhere.......
Bad news - paul - 2009-05-25 18:24
Bad news guys i have just spent ages getting anoobies mod3 for multiplex working on my pc,
reworked all textures etc and it works fine with all the other mods. but i have just tested this out on xbox and it's a none starter theres enough memory i have currently 20mb free but the problem is unless i resize all my fanart and posters down again theres no chance as it takes around 5 seconds to move from one film to the next so as nice as it is it's really not an option for xbox but don't take my word for it try for your self so it will not be in the test
release or the final sorry as i really like it my self
So for now i am sticking with standard multiplex views with 3 levels of transparency.
If I have overlooked something with anoobies mod 3 then I will reconsider it

Hi Paul, I think the reason scrolling takes 5 seconds is because the xbox is still missing the background loading feature which was recently added. On the pc the extrathumbs images are loaded in the background so scrolling is very smooth.
That's what I think is the reason. You can also try out the plot layout to see how that goes.
cheers

I started by resizing all your textures by 50% as that normally works ok added the code to my existing mods and switched the info trigger to on turned fanart off layout to plot
And changed all my default backdrops to plain black the thumbs loaded ok and the poster then between 3 to 5 seconds later the fanart would load, i could not even navigate left or right untill it had finished loading the current fanart. the only way i can foresee it working on xbox would be to resize all my fanart down to at least 640x360 and hopefully that may make it better but i really don't want to have to resize over 300 fanarts just for the xbox as it took me long enough to set it all up to 960x540 plus i share the same files on my pc and they would look really crap sized down at 640x360. it's a shame as i really do like the mod but let's not kid ourselves the xbox does have it's limits. and auriga has allready pushed it to it's limits. I will use this mod as and when i replace the xbox though.

Yep. it's sucking up resources, it's even slower on my laptop than the normal multiplex... Maybe it will get optimized, but for now we'll have to do without it on the ole box...
I like the new list view by Leeuw but that's not out yet..

I don't know why that is. I can scroll through my movies very smoothly. Do you have the latest version of xbmc? Babylon is not new enough.

Played around most of the day with the new mod. Made fanart to 320x180 and the extrathumbs even smaller for movies starting with A and B to see how the mod works. While I didn't have Pauls problem, scrolling for me was normal, a few problems arised...
1. 15mb free is ok, 15mb play 70% of my library I need atleast 18-19 to play everything.
2. 10% of the time the extrathumb on the left wouldn't show.
3. Major problem is when it would freeze or crash, it would really crash and wipe all my usersettings so when switching skins I had to redo everything...that got annoying after 3-4 times.
Dont think I'll put the time in for the mod, I really love it but I don't want to spend all the time getting 700 movies up to par for something I dont think the xbox can handle. Oh well....
