so this would probably suggest that even though i've got 1.37, something of 1.36a has been left behind still causing the problem?

update

before ftp'ing 1.37 to xbox i removed:

*...python/lib/_xmlplus folder
*quicktimebrowser.py
*quicktimebrowser_utils.py
*...scripts/quicktimebrowser folder

have i missed any files or folders which i should remove before doing a fresh 'install' of 1.37?

Thumbs Up 
the cause of the problem is somewhere else: apple has changed the naming of the real download urls. in the xml file they give the extension ".h.i640.mov" (for a large trailer for example). when loading this file, the quicktime player is redirected to the file with the extension ".h640w.mov". xbmc doesnt recognize this redirection and fails to play the trailer. for a quick fix i've hardcoded the replacement of the extension in quicktimebrowser.py. just add the following lines after line 491:

link = replace(link, '.i640','640w')
link = replace(link, '.i480','480')
link = replace(link, '.i320','320')

i think you'll have to get the latest version of xbmc. i had the same problem, until i updated xbmc. i think it has something to do with the script saving its data files on exit.

it didn't use to do that, but now when i get back into the main menu, i get a messagebox from the script telling me it's saving its files.

could it be something like a new event that the script expects but isn't sent by older versions of xbmc?

anyway, get the latest version of xbmc solved it for me.

edit: nevermind. i sorted it.

i keep getting a syntax error when adding those lines of code.

btw, how do i clean the defug file? it goes to 5 pages and stops recording errors.

you have edited the script wrong.
the error you are getting are for indentation witch pyton scripting is very strict on.
so check you editing and try again.

you have to enable the background in the script, it's somewhere on the first lines. it's been disabled by default because of a memory leak and it will cause the memory of you xbox to fill up. but i've never really had a problem, zo you should be able to enable it...
