I just overwrote old version (no longer shows as a Unix executable - KIND is a document - is this OK?) and get no further but different output in crash log:

Regards

To put the same file permissions as before, run in a terminal:
chmod a+x /Applications/XBMC.app/Contents/MacOS/../Frameworks/libmad.0.dylib

You need to overwrite 3 more libs (same directory):
- libintl.8.dylib (libintl.8.dylib.tgz)
- libssl.0.9.8.dylib and libcrypto.0.9.8.dylib (openssl.0.9.8.tgz)

You can find the tgz in the same trac ticket: http://trac.xbmc.org/ticket/6536

All frameworks should be fine this time. I hope

Finer than fine - many thanks

Runs good, XBMC loads in a few seconds (5-7) and with standard PMIII skin its very snappy.

I was hoping XTV skin would work, but a no goer, switching to white mode results in an all black screen !!! Would of looked great on my white ibook :-(

But G3 600mhz with reasonable amount of RAM is OK for basic media browsing.

Many thanks again.

Cheers

Great! Glad to hear that
How did you install xTV skin?
Check this thread: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=50536
You have to build it for ppc first. XBMCTex is available on sourceforge.

sipart, are you able to play DVD rips on that 600 Mhz G3? (SD of course).

waldo22, (who is just down the road from me) DVD rips should play fine, they had no problem on a 800Mhz G4 iBook.

I haven't actually tried playing all media yet off NAS - will feedback when I have some time. I have some DVD's rips to test and a few diVX movies, a whole load of MP3's and loads of family photos.

And thanks Benjee for info on Xtv skin.

Have had some issues browsing photo media, I think the amount of folders I have with photos in (camera puts them in dated folders) is tipping the ibook/XBMC over the edge - again I'm going to take some time to test a bit more. All media is on a NAS box and I connect via SMB shares.

To be perfectly honest I don't ever see me using my ibook with XBMC in anger - I have XBOX 1 connected to SD CRT TV to satisfy most of my needs at the moment.

I have just installed Meedio (version 1.41) on a old Compaq Armada (700mhz PIII) - XP SP3. XBMC won't work due to laptop graphics only supporting OpenGL 1.1 - Meedio works a treat - even has a plugin to have a integral browser and some nice skins. This is going to replace an even older IBM laptop I have with WinME and MediaMonkey as my music streamer connected to Hifi seperates.

As you can see I have a bit of a thing about using old kit and putting it to good use.

Cheers

Just quick side not i followed the replacing of the files for tiger, in this thread and XBMC works fine on a imac G3 with 10.4.11 nice one guys cheers

I have a Mac Mini G4, ATI Radeon 9200, last Tiger update

Although the 9200 it's only OpenGL 1.3, it runs.

With the usual xvid and divx content, runs fine, but 720p h264 seems to be sloooow, I have to do more tests anyway...

[Aphid]

Thanks for that.

On my 500MHz G3 with 384MB Ram I can get the pictures and music working fine.

As for the movies, a faster Mac is needed.

[urbanmacuser]

Please tell me how you guys got it to work with your G4s.
My xvid and mp4 ( non h.264) content, all at 720p,
is stuttering like a bad chinese movie
( audio faster than the stuttering video).

I've posted a thread [HTML=http://www.xbmc.org/forum/showthread.php?t=54534]here [/HTML],
but so far no responses telling me how to fix.
My content plays fine in Quicktime Pro, Miro and VLC on the same machine,
a PowerMac QS 933 with 1.5gb of ram and a Radeon 9200 video Card.
Just not in XBMC.

hijacking an existing thread is not going get your problem answered faster. It will only serves to annoy.
