**spiff** · 2009-02-27 13:00

there is no reason it wouldnt work on xbox. xbox uses special paths as well (obviously requires a new build)

at the time of release special:// paths had not been merged.

authentication does work on all platforms.

Hmmm...I could not get anything to show up once in the plugin with authentication on.

I'll try again.

AWESOME. It is working now!

Does anyone think it's possible to get a cut down version of picasa running on XBMC? Picasa is a fantastic photo application, but doesn't actually change the original photo, so viewed on XBMC all the pictures are still in the original state. It'd be great to see them with all the changes picasa makes to them.

There's already a picasa plugin. Just use the search function Wink

what do you mean, changes picasa does to them? is this part of their api.

post more info and an example.

I think he means the non-destructive photo editing/correction of the Picasa app itself so that you can always revert to the original unedited photo. But I could be wrong Wink

ah, ok the picasa plugin is for Picasa Web Albums.

I updated to 1.3.4 the other day and now authentication no longer works for me, so nothing is retrieved from my private picasa galleries.

Here is a snippet from the log.
