I am a C/C++ programmer and i ve a xbox. I also ve the Xbox SDK

I recently got introduced to open source XBMC(http://xbmc.org/) and your CXBX(http://www.caustik.com/cxbx/) projects.

How do i join programming these project?

Lastly, am making reference to 'The Xbox also only executes a single process at a time' on http://www.caustik.com/cxbx/

What happens to the dashboard when it launches a game. Does it exit or run silently behind the game process?

I am interested in developing a server(PC)-client(XBOX) chat application. That can launch and stop a running game with XBMC

What if it was a non MS dashboard like XBMC would it exit

I personally see xbox classic as a PC

hope to hear from u

it means EXACTLY what is written. the xbox runs a SINGLE process, that means that any dash dies when you launch another app. only hope of doing what you want is hacking it into the bios.

you really need to read up if you think the xbox is just a pc.

as for helping out; pick a task, code it up. submit the diff @ xbmc.org/trac

Thanz spiff. My dream may not be possible. i wish i know how to go abt hacking the bios.

well, i ve always had my games on my harddrive and it requires a reset to play another game.

Pls, what abt DVD disks, does a new game disk require a reset of the console

yes. by default the xbox resets whenever you hit eject, and it does this for a reason..

thanz spiff, u ve been helpful.

well, how then can one time/monitor a xbox or any game console, then control the shutting down and restart of the games/console.

i ve a small bro who keeps playing around for a longer time with am console without my full permit

That is not possible unless you hack the BIOS or only use open source games in debug mode on a debug BIOS.
