Hello,
Mountain Lion has released and I was wondering, has anyone tried it yet with XBMC? If you did, were there any notable changes, like things that did not work under Lion, which started working with Mountain Lion? :-)
Best regards

I am interested in feedback on this as well, especially if SMBUp is broken in Mountain Lion....

I've tested it very briefly with the Frodo nightlies.
- Suspending and resuming seems to work consistently - No weird audio related problems so far - iTunes is still taking control over remote (up and down keys start changing system volume) |

If it's not broke, I would not upgrade for the kicks of it. Here's what happens, every single time Apple posts a new OSX version. Users upgrade without a thought, something does not work right, they get told to downgrade, then they start complaining
![]() Personally, (and I'm a dev too) I never, ever update a box that I depend on until maybe years after the update pops out. Why, the first one is always buggy as hell, and it takes a few rounds of get things right. Hint, my mainline production boxes run 10.6.8, why ? It's stable as all get out
MediaInfo : http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/ Do not e-mail XBMC-Team members directly asking for support. Read/follow the forum rules. |

Yeah 10.6.8 is rock solid but some of us are hopeless nerds and tinkerers. I spend probably about 5% of my time watching something and 95% fiddling with something useless, it's a sickness.

Some 1080p videos does not stutter anymore. I was using Eden XBMC in both cases. ** I didn't update hoping to solve stuttering, just found when I tried playing those video afterwards. ** (2012-07-25 18:26)toiva Wrote: Yeah 10.6.8 is rock solid but some of us are hopeless nerds and tinkerers.
