XBMC - The Dharma Guide

@ HenryFord - Great guide! thanks for putting this together.

I noticed that the global command "Z" - Zoom is missing. it's also not mentioned on the wiki page.

Just thought you might like to include a new media manager (specifically for Macs) in your list as it is the only one out there (as far as I am aware).

I would love to use this as a starting point for a revised basic user guide on the XBMC Wiki, which would hopefully mean enough of a jump start to have it updated for v11 (Eden) by the time Eden is released.

However, I notice it's currently released under CC-BY-NC-SA 3.0, and the XBMC Wiki requires CC-BY-SA 3.0. In other words, we could only add it if Henry was willing to release it for commercial use as well.

I don't suppose that would be possible? :)

Unfortunately I do not own a mac, but I can try to write a guide to this as well. Would you be willing to look through it though? I don't want it to be 'half-assed' :-)

@Scott: I'll revisit the license and publish it without the commercial restriction!

This is an awesome guide. Good work HenryFord!

Just looked through it again and realized that I only have to put up a link to the media-manager not write a guide to it, so that will def. happen in the next week. I currently have no access to my server (I'm on vaccation ), sou you'll have to wait until sunday/monday until the new version releases, this will include a change in the license model as well.

@Desisuperman & @garbear: Thanks

*Update*
- Updated the license model in order to allow commercial usage (Suggestion)
- Restructured the layout of the Media-Manager-Section (Suggestion)
- Added a few media-manager (Suggestion)
- Added "Z" to the global keys (Suggestion)

The files ares now updated on my server and will be changed in a few days on the homepage (a.k.a. "scribd") as well. Enjoy!

Henry,

Have you considered creating a new thread for a Eden version of your guide (so you can edit the first post etc).

I think it is still useful to have a Dharma guide and an Eden to give choice to people.

I'm running a nightly on my mac so I could help out a bit.

Cheers

I am doing that right know, but I want to wait till it at least hits beta-status Still, I am doing it and will release it later. I am running nightlies here as well, so I know whats happening

Thanks
