its great to have some of my issues sorted though!

Could you be more precise on what you did? This allows me to incorporate this into a next version.

I followed this instructions:


On my Mythbuntu and MCE remote setup:

Created a new rule:



Entered this in with the correct product and vendor id's (with the help of lsusb):


Edited one line in my grub (added "usbcore.autosuspend=-1 acpi_enforce_resources=lax"):



Then:


Then after a reboot tested it and it worked.

The problem is that it relies on the vendor id and product id for each different usb receiver

@ernham, is the ppa enabled in your build or did you just add the xbmc package?

ppa is enabled. @all users; to upgrade; simply use the sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade commands.

Which ppa do i use to update the build? or is it already in there? Im running the build from the first post with nvidia card, not ATI, but the only ppa i can find refers to ATI cards only?

How do people,

Posted a week or so ago stating that tvheadend included in this release is non-functional because it is impossible to login, anyone had any luck getting it working?

Can get git version to work but not ideal since you have to manually start it every time xbmc boots.

Thanx!

hm.. for me - scanning for new content is weird... ( from SIckbeard - episodes updates seamlessy - and are added to library and "newest episodes" without any issues) - from Couchpotato ( and CPv2) - new movie is triggering scanning whole library not adding.

also - new movies are added in weird way ( in newest i have "predators" on top - and all new movies are added below this one... "

- compiled yesterday from git

for the AMD users: h264 L5.1 works now :B

Thanks. A new livecd has been released with this change. Libnfs has also been added to this livecd. Download:

I just upgraded from Eden but am struggling with NFS. Same error as stated out by others:

23:54:51 T:2944400240 ERROR: NFS: Error loading libnfs (HandleDyLoad).
23:54:51 T:2944400240 ERROR: Unable to load libnfs.so.1, reason: libnfs.so.1:$

libnfs0 was already installed, but I read something about libnfs1 here which is not part of any default repository/the ppa.. Which source should I use?

Edit:/ Okay, after all that was a stupid question (: Besides using your posted PPA I also need to upgrade to 12.04.. Got that (:

wow I thought I'll never see L5.1 support in my life time ....
Thanks guys will try out the new livecd.

It sounds like your movies are being sorted in collections (automatically grouped), you need to untick that option (wherever it is!)

I read the post which was linked to phoronix and understand that L5.1 has been added. Are you saying that TrueHD and MA now work with AMD cards and Linux. I would of thought this would of been bigger news on these forums.

It can't work. fglrx does not support it at the moment, see here: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=128298

Quote for you:

Quote:Due to the way the fglrx drivers are implemented in Linux, ATI based cards cannot stream HD audio via HDMI (DTS and Dolby 5.1 are not HD audio codecs. You can still get surround sound, just not TrueHD or DTS-HD). This is because their audio system cannot handle more than 2 channels. At the current time, the radeon open-source driver only supports 2 channel HDMI audio when running Linux kernel >= 3.3. (http://phoronix.com/forums/showthread.ph...DMI-Audio)
