I have upgraded to 2GB RAM, set up VPADU, set 512MB manual buffer etc.
I have the same issue and I believe it has to do with RC1 as beta 1 and 2 work fine for me. Anybody using RC1 on a revo 1600?

I guess that is a good sign, but not when it's in an RC! Is there anything we can do to help the dev's iron this out? Any log files you guys need or anything? Are we even posting in the right place

My previous post #242 has a link to a fix for VDPAU in RC1.
Oh, well. Here it is.

Upgraded from XBOX to the Revo and everything is great except the following problem: My receiver only sends sound to Zone 2 when connected from analog sources. I'm running the sound via HDMI to the receiver just fine. Is there any way to get the headphone jack working simultaneously?

After playing with settings for a day I have it playing MOST 1080p videos just fine with the 256mb 1 Gig setting, but some of them don't play all that good. I'm going to go pick up another 1 gig stick at microcenter and see if that helps.
One issue I'm having is I can't get 1080p output from the system. My projector supports 1080p, but this only seems to be outputting 1080i. I don't see a 1080p/60 or 1080p/24 setting on XBMC. Am I missing something, or is this it?

When you add a new device to your logitech harmony, use manufacturer Microsoft and set device to "MCE Keyboard" (it's not in the dropdown). Then you can set buttons to keyboard presses. that's what I did for my win7 xbmc box
Qooop Wrote:I just did a new install from scratch. I think there are less potential problems that way. No drivers needed.
You used the stock 9.11 live iso (http://sourceforge.net/projects/xbmc/files/XBMC%20Live/pre-release/xbmc-live-9.11-rc1.zip/download) and you don't need separate drivers for VDPAU on the Revo?

Added the memory. I think any issues I had are now gone but I'm going ot have to do further testing. One thing I think the OP should include in his post is a link to this video that shows how to actually open the box. I had a hell of a time trying to figure it out. Thankfully someone on youtube showed me :-)

OK, I´m hoping somebody here could help me out. I´ve serached this forum as well as other websites but havent found answers.
I got my Revo 3610 yesterday. It was preinstalled with some sort of Linux OS that looked like a command prompt. My plan is to install xbmc live on the HD.
When I entered the BIOS to edit the settings according to the recommendations in this thread it looked different. There is no option for RevoBoot, you cant edit the iGPU just UMA. Is this something I should do anything about or is the live installation work anyway?
Please advice

RC! Release Candidate Problems - Rob Xbox User - 2009-12-23 11:15
Current problems after install.
- Previous display settings won't work. VDPAU setting shown however. I replaced the config with my previous 1080p config and XBMC didn't start.
- Where is the home folder - can't seem to find in during FTP?
- Unable to change volume whilst playing a film.
Any soloutions?
Thanks in advance

hi, i dont have a keyboard plugged into my revo; only an mce remote.
i have xbmc-live on a usb plugged into the revo but it keeps booting into windows.
what bios setting has to be set in order for it to boot from a usb device (i put 'removeable device' as the first boot option under 'advanced bios settings' in the cmos setup but it still boots into windows) ?
thx.

there is an option for 'boot priority' where it would list the internal drive and usb drive; hitting '+' would toggle which one it sees first
