As for the performance on the xbox:
I'm using xbox XBMC rev 22514 (No native media flagging). Only disabled the animated weather icons and all runs very smooth. Even have the recently added module enabled as it now only scans once (after booting).
Excuse me, ronie! Wasn't aware of that.
I have to come back on things i've said earlier:
I had to disable the recently added module, due to an python error which i got when booting xbmc (caused by the weather.com plugin). I also needed the extra memory to have a smooth movie playback (without hanging xbmc).

you only get a python error? you lucky guy! ;-)
for me (linux) xbmc crashes at startup if i both enable recently added and weather.com. and if i try it on windows, i get random freezes....every now and then.
according to nuka1195 it's a known issue and needs to be fixed by xbmc.

In the 1.03 version it was possible to change a couple of lines in the home.xml so that when you click on movies it will take you to the screen where you choose title, genre, year etc. This is the post I found which helped me out previously, however I can't find these lines in home.xml anymore - is there another fix someone could sort me out with? I Just like to search by genre every now and then when the kids are round so we can be searching for cartoons and not the likes of "lesbian vampire killers"!
Absolutely brilliant skin though, cheers
most of the code has been moved to Includes_Home.xml

- And if i uncheck the MEDIA FLAGING ?
That will not use memory ?
- The METEO ANIMATED ICON use many memory ?
Remove it (just in home menu) can help the XBOX to be more stable ?
Thanks

Nice work as usual Ronie
.I grabed the xbox version and noticed that when I transfered it over, a bunch of the forgein studio images did not transfer due to special characters in the file names. (Not that I cared much, as I didn't recognize any of them and probably won't miss them) Just letting you know.
Also, what is up with the "I hate Transparencey!" option in settings, and then the percentages for selection? Just doing a bit of messing around there?
I didn't try to put in all of the bells and whistles yet, but everything looked and felt nice so far.

yep, it's a limitation of the xbox filesystem. it doesn't accept certain characters. just ignore the errors, you'll miss a few studio logo's but that's all.

check entry #17

oops, missed that one. 
Heh, I didn't notice anything change so I thought you just added a little easter egg in there...

I have to say that the FAQ is a work of art, as well as the glorious skin itself.
Superb work all around, Ronie

Well, i'm glad the weather plugin works, as the weather is changing day by day at the moment darknior Wrote:Ok i will try this evenig

I used the following steps:
1.) Grabbed the latest XBMC Nightly build (Standard build, NOT the patched version. I never tested the patched builds, as i think it will never be stable on the xbox)
2.) Disabled the "recently added ..." options via Skin Settings\Home Window.
3.) Disabled the "animated home and weather icons" via Skin Settings\Icons.

I have put the v22528 and it is the same
There is always on xbox the "fanart-" without "short or long"
An other BUG i see is that now i can't see FANART in the INFO window.
I have FANART make myself put near the film and others DL by scrapper, they are working fine but they are not show on the info window
But with v1.3 i remember it works ...

I'm using the xbox with v22463 and the fanart - short and fanart - long both appear for me.

Other than the fanart everything seems to be running swimmingly on my xbox. Cheers ronie - you da man.
A bit OT but I've just noticed that the recent Xbox XBMC now has auto thumb generating which is just super smashing great.
