[RELEASE] XeeBo - Dharma

Hi There,
Just a quick question. Is there a xeebo for Eden, cause I can get xeebo pre-Eden to work. Thanks.

Pre-eden is basically the Eden build although there are new features being added for the final Eden release.

Hi

I have a problem with my Xeebo skin for xbmc.
I have recently reset my computer and before that my xbmc (with Xeebo) work perfectly fine.
Now I have some problems.
First when I playing videos from YouTube or watching a trailer from a movie is there only sound. No picture or anything, only sound. ?
And the same thing happens when I’m playing movies or series there is mp4 format. Only sound, no picture/image.
What do I do about that?

Not skin related, ask in XBMC General Help and Support.

Okay thx! great skin btw!

Thanks Hitcher for the effort - it's the only XBMC skin I like. I'm on alternative home page layout and have got some questions for you.

How hard and/or desirable would be to implement by you or anyone the following extras:

1. Make left vertical menu bar almost hidden by default (like the right one), so pressing left arrow will open it.
2. Providing #1, expand custom items count to 18 (6 x 3) or 20 (5 x 4) and assign "quick dial" numbers 1-9 or 0-9 to custom items using short and long button press events.
3. Expand Shutdown menu to have Timer on a configurable action (like do suspend, not only shutdown as it's now). Add Logoff option. Localize strings for those items.

Thanks again!

1. 'Alternate' was made due to requests for the main menu to be visible on the home screen.

2. I wont be adding anything else to XeeBo as I'm busy on other skins but you should be able to use your remote to launch most custom things.

3. Not sure what you mean about the Timer but other shutdown options (Suspend, Hibernate, etc) are visible as long as your system supports them. I didn't add log off as it's always available in the main menu.

Thanks.

1. I see. Default is no go for me as need max amount of ready to use predefined buttons directly on the home page. Default layout allows only one row of them. Adding second one will just copy the row above. Or did I getting it wrong?

2. Could you please throw a row doing that for EventGhost or skin's xml file, let's say key 5 press calling custom button #5?

3A. I don't see Windows user log off on alt layout. Am I blind?

3B. Currently Timer does only Shutdown. As I need maintain IR remote ON button functionality, my default shutdown action have to be Suspend. So I'll have to rewrite the skin's xml. The best approach would be an option for the Timer, what action it performs, i.e. Shutdown, Suspend, Hibernate, etc.

3C. Also, adding Shutdown menu to the list (in Settings) that requires password confirmation may be valuable for some.

I need clean look, speed and functionality from the skin, what skin would you suggest for my case?
TIA

Looks like both XeeBo 4.0.4 from official XBMC repo as well as XeeBo 4.0.4.55 (SVN) do not offer Resume functionality. Works on default XBMC installation with Confluence, but with XeeBo resuming is not offered anymore.

Nothing to do with the skin; it's handled by XBMC.

And what's XeeBo 4.0.4.55 (SVN)?
