I have an idea for the picture slideshow screensaver.
Would it be possible to include a collage view, such as multiple photos scattered/layered and then have some transitional effect to another set of images, etc?

Oops, accidentally cut this from my previous post.
Here is what I am running:
I am running a softmodded box using krazie ndure installer.
Xbox v1.0
320Gb WD Caviar
Ok, I am using rev13360 of T3CH's xbmc build because I cannot get the latest svn to run on my box.
I am using a13 of the AEON build.
I have loaded about 60 movies onto my hard drive, and I want to use the aeon skin because it looks beautiful as a media center on my plasma.
When I go into the Movie section and use either file or library, and either the wall view, or showcase and scroll through my movies (thumbnails from imdb) it will freeze when I scroll through them. I have all the visual effects turned off, and xbox mode on. I am using the 1080 poster backdrops for the main menu if that is of any concern, and using the original composite cables. (I still have to buy the component ones)
I haven't tested any other view modes because the only ones I want to use are showcase, and possibly wall from time to time. I also prefer the library to the files view. Is there something I may be doing wrong? Would the xbmc log file be of any help? I really want to have my videos stored natively on the xbox to free up my laptop. Im not concerned with the visual effects either.
Any help on this would be fantastic! I am enamored with this skin!

K, I am using my debug option and my available memory never drops below 34000KB, my FPS stays around 59.9 or above, and my cpu usage is at 35% at the highest.
I have 72 movies in my folder, and still it freezes when I scroll 42 movies to the right or 21/22 movies to the left in library/showcase view.

I've have a problem with 13a (and 12a, and maybe older builds too).
On the xbox, using the right thumb to ff or rw music when OUT of the fullscreen view doesn't do anything. Entering fullscreen (x) causes any previous bumps of the analog to be applied very quickly. Works normally while in fullscreen.
Definitely an aeon issue, just tested pm3 and it works fine. Running the latest t3ch build (fixed build).

What format should the backdrops be on Linux?
I get JPGs to show up in the filemanager when I try to select a background, but when I go back to the main menu it's black. Even if I set whole folders for Music, Movies etc, it's all black backgrounds.
Using PPA SVN 14418.

I saw that others are having the same problem and a referece to that it might be XBMC causing it.
Is this something that is being looked into or...
Cheers.

You can use either BMP or TIFF for Linux. Not sure about any XBMC issues with displaying them, though I haven't updated for about a week.
