Hi. I just tried XBMC on Hardy. Thanks all for Linux porting. This app is currently unique. There is not so much UpNP media clients for desktop on Linux.
Locally it can play movies and music and it works great. Maybe a bit slowly, but I had a cheap graphic card nv6200.
I finded that XBMC use very small CPU resources, this is very good. Maybe a better video card can solve the slow UI response (especially the mouse cursor moves) and slow full screen (1600 x 1050) video playback.
I use mediatomb as my favorite UpNP server. XBMC recognize it nicely and can read and list all media files from mediatomb. But when I try to play something, music or video, XBMC ends with crash.
Can someone help me with this? Thanks for reading.
