Use the SVN releases, then. They work fine for standard use, although I believe scrapers are missing right now. And for those watching from the sidelines, no, WMV playback still isn't fixed.

I will give the svn a try. I installed boxee last night to get me by.

Ok, I am running Lucid all up to date as of hours ago. I found lucid packages within this website: https://launchpad.net/~team-xbmc-svn/+archive/ppa
from my understanding I am using unstable version from svn. aptitude shows it as this: 1:9.11+svn28042-lucid1
so my problem is that when I add my Videos sorce (multiple paths to my samba server), i chose that it's holding movies and that it should either use tmdb or imdb but i noticed that the "exclude this path from library updates" is actually checked and I can't uncheck it. then when I hit Select, the automated scan doesnt' happen until I hit enter to enter the Videos (multipath folder) for some reason my movies have no dvd covers and some movie have what looks to be a screenshot of part of the movie. am I doing something wrong? I am coming from the xbox and the scanning of movies and dvd covers just works. can anyone suggest a fix.

svn is unstable, especially right now. If you use it dont report any errors. You dont even have to leave this thread to get this information.
Nick is using it but he is compiling it from source and probably knows what he is doing. Also the fact that the source was working for his need when he downloaded it does not mean it will work for you today.

What you need to do is to install Karmic or Live.

This is what you should have read:
http://xbmc.org/theuni/2010/03/01/impend...ge-addons/

If you still want to do it:

You find the svn ppa and instructions in the sticky in the forum
http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=33327

Information about how to build from source you find in the wiki and in the readme file.

I upgraded successfully with the following commands:

sudo aptitude install update-manager-core

sudo do-release-upgrade -d


Select to install the maintainers version when asked.
Reboot after installation


sudo reboot

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nvidia-vdpau/ppa

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install nvidia-185-modaliases nvidia-glx-185

sudo apt-get remove xbmc xbmc-data xbmc-live xbmc-skin-confluence xbmc-standalone xbmc-web-pm3

nano /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xbmc.list.list

Code:
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc-svn/ppa/ubuntu lucid main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc-svn/ppa/ubuntu lucid main

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install xbmc xbmc-data xbmc-live xbmc-skin-confluence xbmc-standalone

sudo cp /etc/init.d/xbmc-live.dpkg-new start


You might want to create a new upstart script or add the last line to the /etc/rc.local script.

So i get an issue with xbmc-live


The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
libcdio7 libmysqlclient15off libfaad0
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
1 not fully installed or removed.
After this operation, 0B of additional disk space will be used.
Setting up xbmc-live (1:9.11+svn28042-lucid1) ...

dpkg: error processing xbmc-live (--configure):

Any suggestions?

Code:
sudo rm /etc/init.d/xbmc-live
sudo mv /etc/init.d/xbmc-live.dpkg-new /etc/init.d/xbmc-live

Something like that should fix your problems.

I found simply typing
Code:
sudo apt-get remove xbmc*
to be much more thorough and then afterwards ran
Code:
sudo apt-get install xbmc-live
[b]OR[/b]
sudo apt-get install xbmc-standalone
to reinstall either the live version or standalone version.

I also had some issues with lirc, but that was solved with a simple
Code:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure lirc
and selecting my remote model.

Also take note that /etc/events.d is no longer used in 10.04 so any guides you follow saying to edit something in that directory, look for a similar file in /etc/init (no .d Wink).
