Hi Folks,
i've noticed that from RC2 --> release, that there is no longer an option for CrystalHD in the video playback menu...
and secondly, xbmc is not using the crystalHD decoder in the debug overlay screen, using ff-show instead.
am i missing something?
I would go back and check with the old RC2 files, but i cant get to them anymore?

Sorry man... Don't run Windows with my CrystalHD card. I'm not sure how much development went into the Windows version either... The only official XBMC drivers are for OSX and Linux so I'm not sure.

Please post a debug log (don't forget to turn on debug logging), it will say why the chd option is not there.

Can you restart xbmc after turning on debug logging, and then post the log.

Ok sorry to bother you again, but it seems that the crystalhd code writes to LOGDEBUG before the guisettings are read, thus any logging that the crystalhd code does never gets written to the log.
Can you make a shortcut to xbmc.exe, add --debug after the filename, start xbmc using that shortcut, then post the log again.

The detection code logging was fine as I remember seeing it the logfile.
...
deleted the rest as it was not dharma related.

Does this mean that the CrystalHD does or does not work in XBMC on Windows?
Looking at getting one to upgrade my Atom-based system

So I purchased one of the BCM970015 chips and should get it in the next month or so.
Hoping that it will work with XBMC on Windows? Is this the case?
(Running it on Server 2003)
