Found my problem. I missed the postings about this not working for root. Added an XBMC user, and everything looks OK now.

I don't know about the build your on, but I do notice that your advancedsettings doesn't include a password.

I did try with just
Code:
<user>root</user>
<pass></pass>and that didn't work. I just added an xbmc user with xbmc password like all the examples, and now it works fine.

Still trying to wrap my head around all this....think i've got thumbs almost figured out, but I can't seem to figure out why aspect ratios are not displayed correctly. When I use internal, its OK...I verify with Ember MM and it's OK, but when I use the MySql its incorrect....most movies that are widescreen show up as 4:3.
Any reason for that to happen?

To avoid it: open the zoom amount/aspect ratio settings window (pressing enter while playing the file when the black screen is showing) and set the zoom amount to 1 (the default), you'll instantly recover the video image.
Please let me know if that solved your problem.

Has said bug been reported?

I preferred to try to solve the problem by myself (without touching the code).

Well, it isn't going to be fixed until it's reported or you fix it yourself by touching the code
Cheers,
Jonathan

Charrua.
that worked, i think it was cause i had set a custom zoom. that was driving me nuts!
I thought it was to do with the resume and was about to try and clear resume settings, thanks mate you have saved me a lot of hassle.
Should we report this then?
