I reinstalled JB and then reinstall xbmc update to latest.


When i try to go in and add my videos and i go to zeroconfig it crashes on me. Then it ended up crashing when it had finished scanning for movies. I ended up changing the my book live to a NFS rather then the zeroconfig browser since it wouldn't crash when going that route.


Here is the past bin

Maybe? I always adjust it so I can barely see the blue, but I use a projector so it's actually edge to edge.

I adjust mine so I can see all the blue and no black outside the blue (that would be no black above and to the left in the upper right corner).

Ahh, when I click on 'Test Patterns' nothing happens, good find.

Works on OSX master. jmarshall mentioned it's probably because nobody has ported it from OpenGL to OpenGLES.

So all you OpenGL/ES hackers, we need the help!

I'm running the latest nightly build (27/7)

Thanks in advance

Question to you: do you hear an audible difference between the audio play versus the video player?

i am posting here since this is crash from a nightly build. However as I said in the other post I was running official 10.0.9 in the first crash.

Hey guys, been using XBMC on my Apple TV for several months and it's been great! Awesome work!

I just recently started to organize my collection of movies I have on my NAS box and have been using Media Center Manager to grab the photos and movie descriptions and it has been working well too.

My question I have for you is about the information from the movies. After I got all the photos and movie information the way I wanted, it would not show up with the nightly I had back from June. So I updated the version of XBMC to the July 27, and the pictures worked, however when I choose to view information about the movie I get nothing. No message box with errors, no information, nothing. It just goes back to the list of movies. I have tried different setting in the settings screen (stuff I've read to try on the forums) but I've had no luck with that either.

I've tried almost every nightly from July and they all give me the same thing. I have never asked for help before in the forum because I've just read the forum in the past and been able to resolve them before, and newly registered today! Hopefully the information I provide below is what is expected. If more is needed I will help in any way.

Its quite likely you need to refresh your movie information to load in all the new info you've gathered. XBMC caches the info for a movie from the first time it adds that movie to its library so any new fanart or nfo files you put together wont be loaded.
When you view the movie info, there should be an option to reload the information, try that.

Chuckles,

Thank you for helping. I think that's where I'm having my problem. When I try and view the movie information with the July 27 build (by holding menu on the Apple TV remote till the box pops up for me to choose), I select it and it disappears, but nothing happens. If I do the same thing and select "Update Library" it looks like it is refreshing the information, but I can't view it. I also tried cleaning too without luck though.

I just tried a July 18 build, and the movie info box slides in (unlike the July 28 build), however the movie plot and such is still empty. The new artwork shows up though, just not the movie plot or any fanart (even after updating the library and trying the clean).

I'll keep trying different builds with the suggestion you made and see if it helps too. Just thought maybe I was missing a setting or something!

Thanks again!
