azido Wrote:@ devs:

i found that in current svns (dunno if that happened earlier) when exporting video database to separate files including fanart and thumbs, but NOT overwriting existing entries, xbmc still writes all the actor thumbs of all entries again.

can you add these actor thumbs not to be overwritten, too? on huge libraries adding stuff for example for only one show and writing to hd takes much extra time for adding actor thumbs again.

thanks..

ps: do i need to add a ticket?

Fixed in SVN r23895.

i still have some issue of some bug i need to figure out but a big part of it is working

This is really great news. I am currently using the very functional external player with MPC with great results, but it would be nice if it could be played inside xbmc.

Holy Hell!!! Shocked

So soon?!?!? Tiben20, you'll be remembered forever for this if you pull it off. Big Grin

I have this issue in gl and dx as well. Mkv videos will play the audio but no video. Half of the times I'm greeted with a r6304 runtime error saying xbmc.exe attempted to load the C runtime library incorrectly.

elupus recommended me opening a new trac ticket.

Tiben20, that's really great news you're bringing. Windows platform will finally be able to run on low power cpu's.

ok, i don't know if that has to do with recent builds, but can someone that knows more than me tell me if this is working on recent svns:

using different sources for tv shows, where for example season 1,2 and 3 of "BONES" are in one source (let's call it "COMPLETE") and season 4 of the same show is in another source (we call it "INCOMPLETE"). so the structure would be like

D:\TVSHOWS\COMPLETE\BONES\
--------------------------------Season 1
--------------------------------Season 2
--------------------------------Season 3
--------------------------------tvshow.nfo

D:\TVSHOWS\INCOMPLETE\BONES\
----------------------------------Season 4

DOES this work in general? I see them getting "stacked" together without a problem, but for any reason i get no season thumb for the first 3 seasons but for season 4 it shows. now i don't know if it just doesn't work in general or if that's an issue caused by recent builds.

Using 23912 dx, and its seems almost back to normal. Still no adjust refresh rate. All files play fine. Have to press down on my remote on main menu otherwise nothing is selected. And there is a milkdrop visualisation now, although it only has 1 preset and i can see where to choose to use others.


- WiSo - 2009-10-23 08:50

Milkdrop is still alpha. The presets are only in svn yet since current implementation doesn't support preset packs. Once you've created a directory in xbmc\visualisations\milkdrop and unzip the presets in it you'll see a new item in the settings.
