Best Performance Skin - ION Platform - chanders - 2010-07-08

Haven't found out how to do a poll on here, anyways what skin do you ION guys run for the best performance? Please quote the next message and fill in the blanks

Model: Revo 3610
Ram: 2GB
Skin: Confluence
XBMC Version: SVN 31655
OS: Linux / Live

Other: Confluence seems to be the best performing skin. Aeon is slow on the REVO, especially when moving in between menu items and selecting an item. There is up to a 5sec delay between screens. Xperience runs fairly okay but is also a bit laggy. I haven't really tried the other skins.

Model: Asrock Ion 330HT
Ram: 2GB
Skin: Xperience / Refocus
XBMC Version: r31648
OS: Windows 7 32bit

Other: As far as operation is concerend Refocus wins hands down looks nice and is also very small. Xperience is my prefered skin but it does run a little slow on the ion even when overclocked as i run mine at 1.9ghz but heat is an issue now the warmer weather is hereEek


GPU processing of Fanarts - palmero - 2011-02-05

Y also have a Reve r3610 and I use Transparency skin, and it runs smoothly

Try this setting, to allow processing the fanart and imagery using the Nvidia GPU, not the tiny Atom...

I've never had any problems with any skin on my asrock ion 330.

DDS fanart is a must. I like Night on my ATV which has to be pretty comparable to an Ion setup.

Model: Zotac ND-01
Ram: 2GB
Skin: Confluence (with Influence mod)
XBMC Version: 10

Runs nice and snappy - no lag and images seem to load nice and quick even though I'm still only running off a SD card Big Grin

Ram: 2GB
Skin: AEON65
XBMC Version: r33324 [10.0 beta1]
OS: LIVE
Other detail: Res[1920x1080 60hz], confluence is faster but i would never give up aeon65.


- Geeba - 2011-02-08

Model: ZBOX HD-ID11
Ram:2GB
Skin:Confluence
XBMC Version: Openelec
OS: Linux on SSD

Other: Settled on Confluence as it matches the Xbox but never had any problems with all the skins I've tried.

Model: Asrock ION 330HT
Ram: 1,5GB
Skin: Alaska Revisited
XBMC Version: 10.0 Dharma
OS: Ubuntu 10.10 on 2,5" 5400rpm HDD

Other: works quite good, though sometimes it stutters a little bit. I believe with a SSD I would solve that problem.
