I'm sorry if this question doesn't belong in here since it's about nightly builds (pre Eden)

In version 10.1 "Dharma" the date on the home screen is the way I like it...

Code:

Wednesday, June 1, 2011

But in the latest nightly builds, it's cut short, like this...

Code:

Wed, Jun 1, 2011

Is that a bug or by design or maybe only on my system..?

Thanks!

I'm bumping this because I completely rewrote the post... :o

As far as I know those come from langinfo.xml in "X:\Program Files\XBMC\language\YOURLANUAGE" folder. U can see and modify the current values there. If u didn't change region options in xbmc it is also possible that the skin is using the short date now instead of long version. Since I don't use nightly builds this is all a guess game.

Example langinfo.xml:

<regions>
<dateshort>MM/DD/YYYY</dateshort>
<datelong>DDDD, MMMM D, YYYY</datelong>
</region>

So it has been changed in nightly builds and can't be controlled by skin yet, but langinfo.xml should still work.. just put the format of long date under dateshort...?

I'm confused.... why not allow long date?

It's getting the settings from <datelong>DDDD, MMMM D, YYYY</datelong> in langinfo.xml

But why does it only get DDD and MMM? and not DDDD and MMMM.:confused2:
