Hi all, I've been using XBMC Frodo for a couple of months now and there's a few tweaks I'd like to make it anyone could provide any help, I've tried forum searches but either can't find information, or find information for Eden, or conflicting information.
If it's any help heres some system info.
I'm running XBMC standalone, on a machine which started it's life as an Ubuntu 12.04 server. I then added lubuntu-desktop, and then added xbmc. I'm currently using the Transparency skin but I'm not especially attached to it if changing it could solve any of these issues.
Here's the things I'd like to achieve.
1) Output sound via HDMI and Analogue simultaneously.
There are reasons why this would be helpful that I'm too lazy to explain.
2) Reduce bass.
Regardless of the output device selected, most of my movies sound way to bassy, are there any equalizer addons available or any other workaround?
3) A picture slideshow music visualisation.
Or something similar, I generally control my music via UPNP, I can then start a slideshow manually, but every time a new song starts, it kills my slideshow. Also, the slideshow feature doesn't seem to have a randomise option. Ideally, every time I play music, it would use a visualisation which displayed images randomly and recursively selected from a specified folder.
4) Playlists created by multiple remotes.
Is there any kind of feature to allow multiple people to contribute to the currently playing music playlist. Preferably in an Android phone app of some description.
