Evening all. Firstly, the recent updates to XBMC on the ATV2 are a massive improvement, but I am seeing a few oddities that searching the forum haven't been able to answer.... in this thread, music:
The setup: iOS build 4.3_8F305, Seas0nPass JB, latest XBMC (23rd June) installed from NitoTV.
1. One of the nicest features of XBMC of old (Feb'ish build I think) was that while playing songs, I could leave it on Party Mode and I'd get nice full screen fanart of the artists. Now, with the 23rd build I just get black screen, all the time. I can see fanart when browsing the library, but it's missing when playing fullscreen. Is there a fix for this?
2. The Play/Pause button on the remote seems to restart the music track, rather than actually pausing it! That's really frustrating, LOL!
3. Finally, the music info scrapers seem to be a bit flaky. I've tried AllMusic and LastFM, but when they can't find info on bands such as The Bestie Boys, it makes me wonder if there's a bit of tuning needed on them.
Thanks for your help lovin' XBMC! Mark
