Acer Revo R3610 ?
I created the advancedsettings.xml but no go on creating .dds files inside my media folders.

I have read about dirty regions and will probably move on to a nightly if I cant get .dds to work.

Any insight as to why .dds is not working? My xml file looks my post above..

enabling ddsfanart made a HUGE difference in browsing the library on my Revo 1600.

Does the DDS fanart work with the nightlies?

Looking forward to some pictures.

OK, finally sorted it.

I simply spliced into the power lead to provide a 12v feed to the fan using a 5W 100 Ohm drop resistor. The fan is a cheapie 120mm one, but is fairly quiet even at 12V.

I can now use my REVO in peace with a slight but constant fan hum.

Of course I now have to remember to unplug otherwise the fan keeps running after shutdown. With the original tiny fan the REVO became unusable - the fan kept whooshing up and down all the time.

Looking nice mate ! I still have to find a solution to get the power from inside so when you put the revo in stand-by or hibernate that the fan will shut down...

And yes the stock fan was a pain in the ass... Constant up/down of RPM was driving me nuts..

I'm planning to sell my R3610 maybe I can make someone happy for a small price.
