HOW-TO compile XBMC for Xbox from SVN

You need 2003.

2008 should build XBMC_PC (probably with modifications) and XBMC_Linux for win32 just fine. You just can't build for xbox with 2008.

Yes you need Visual Studio 2003 to compile XBMC for Xbox, but you can use XDK 5933 (with Visual Studio 2003 that is).

You could install Windows under a VMware vertual machine to compile in there, (or you could compile XBMC for Windows or Linux instead).

Are the steps to build XBMC_Linux for win32 documented anywhere? Thanks in advance.

Load the solution in tools/Win32.

Grab SDL libs and setup path in Visual Studio to point to them.

Build.

Fix errors Wink
