Should be supported in Win7/Flash 10.2. See: http://www.behardware.com/news/11313/flash-10-2-adobe-confirmation.html

Did you enable GPU-accelaration in your browser?

For Chrome:
1 - Type in the adress/search bar: about:flags
2 - Enable "GPU Accelerated Canvas 2D"
3 - Restart browser

Watch +60 fps flying.

Other browser you have to google..

PL83 Wrote:I also have a new HTPC, based on this platform, and everything runs very smooth with or without XBMC on win7 64bit, with high bitrate movies, like 1080p with 40GB, CPU between 25-35% with this high bitrate movies.

The only problem that i have is with youtube movies at 1080p, i can see them, but they are not completely smooth, anyone knows how to solve this?

Regarding the temperatures of CPU, MB and GPU, what temperatures i can consider that are "normal"?

In my case,
CPU:
Idle - 45/49ºC / Watching 1080p movies - 51/53ºC / Load - 55/60ºC

MB:
Idle - 33/34ºC / Watching 1080p movies 35-36ºC / Load - 37/40ºC

GPU
Idle - 50/55ºC / Watching 1080p movies 60-63ºC / Load - 65/72º

HDD
Idle - 28/30º / Watching 1080p movies 31-32ºC/ Load - 33/35º

Are these temperatures normal? I use Hwmonitor to see the temperatures, and this is the only one that shows the GPU temperature, at least i don't found another software to check the GPU temperatures.

My motherboard is the Asus E35M1-I DELUXE (passive), and my case is a mini-itx lc-power, this one, with two silent fans 40mm (11dBx2) fans blowing the air out of case. The case is installed in vertical position, and the fans are in the top of case.

Thanks

90 degrees for the GPU, 60-65 for the CPU. Anything below is considered normal

Hey all.

I just want say a big thank to nemek for the great iso.

Just for info: the iso with nemek linked above is good, but all other version got bad hash (filesystem.squashfs file is bad)

in nemek iso I find some wrong (long) file name (thank peterk)

Anybody tried that?
Or updating xbmc to some nightly build?
In current state I have a working vaapi and xbmc freezing and lagging all the time. Any ideas anyone?

I have the same problems. Sometimes the file just starts with sound out of sync and I have to pause, rewind a little and play. I also get tearing on some of the 24p content.

Does anyone have an idea on how to update the catalyst drivers to 11.6 without having to compile from source? I also have a working XBMC Live installation from nemek, don't want to break something that is working pretty well.

Hello,
I have the same problem when installing as Ghost22.

Ghost22 Wrote:. . . . . .
I am unable to install it, it will just hang, and pop to a menu asking for what to do next, and no matter what you select is begins installing to the system.

What can I do?
Are the isos flawed.

I have the iso version
http://xbmc.exstatic.org/xbmc-10.0-live-amd.iso
or
http://xbmc.exstatic.org/xbmc-10.0-live-amd/
on a CDRW burned, but the installation always hangs at the same point
[!!]Install the system
Please help me, where is the mistake?
Sad

Try openelec. It is better than the version you used:

Here's another Link for Nemek's XBMC-Live (AMD-Version) --> LINK.
This Link should be working. Smile

@Robotica: Nice, OpenElec seems to be ready in the next public version.

Cheers

@Robotica
Unfortunately I have too little knowledge of Linux, since I'm a year-long Windows user.
The installation appears to be quite complicated, for a user like me.
Nevertheless, of course, thank you!

@ubuntuf4n
So I invite now first download the iso and i hope that finally the installation works
Thank you also for your answer


PS.:i have the GA-E350N-USB3 Mainboard
