xbmc is fantastic...don't get me wrong!
my only complaints are:
- normal controls for video do not work very well
- dvd playback with my samsung drive do not work at all for most dvd's
cheers and thanks for the info...i didn't know that.
thanks,
lip

i've wondering for some what the difference between xbmp and xbmc is. i know what they basicly do, but in more detailed explanation.
i'm sure this question has been answered a million times before, but i havn't been able to find the answer by searching.

hi all. kudo's to the developers for the work on xbmc ^_^ the latest point release (2004-04-19, waiting for the 2004-04-27 to be on the servers) was a seriously good update to the gui and features. nice to see .mkv fully supported too even though the rwd/fwd is a bit buggy... not that i mind though.
i was using xbmp a fair bit before but now xbmc has easily surpassed it in terms of performance and features. great to see onboard brightness, gamma and contrast settings too as that was badly needed. support for high definition is also a huge plus.
just a quote question though... on my previous install (2004-03-09) the osd that displayed the figures for brightness, gamma etc were aligned correctly above the sliders. on the 2004-04-19 release the figures are now mis-aligned, pretty much merged with the slider buttons so you cannot see what the number is. its not a huge problem but thats the only thing i've found out about it so far... its not really a huge bug for me to write a report but if you'd like me to i could.
keep up the great work though ^_^

would be the wrong place if my post was only about the "bug" though ^_^ my main point was to say kudos to the developers for the work and effort on xbmc.
my apologies if i have made my post sound like it was moaning about a bug though.

i got media player right now, and i'm wondering if it is really worth upgrading to center? i'm about to stream (using either relax or xstream [btw which is better?]) so i want the least amount of problems. what are the primary benefits of the center over the player (i don't want to use it as my dashboard)?
