hi
I try on macmini in native with best result as vistualization ... of course
but i don't have video, may at this time just 1 chipset was supported ? ATI or NVIDIA ... (GMA intel in macmini)
but with double boot i'll can try more easy .. for recompile I make just 'make' or i need to re download SVN ? probably re download ...
and i don't find command fullscreen ? ... ./XboXMediaCenter -fullscreen or -f ? ^^
I don't understand also why manage local acces computer ... when i add a path ... i try with SMB share
Wait for next stage ^^
thx for all ...

Chai.Sangeen Wrote:Hello everyone I got xbmc up and running on my ubuntu feisty machine. Under the hood I have, core duo2 with 1gb ram, and nvidia graphics card. Video playback over samba is working fine, picture and slide shows works, also the music is playing perfectly. The only thing im trying to figure out is the visualization, and shoutcast is complaing about libcurl.dll
Thank to all xbmc and xbmc-linux teams for this great work and accomplishment
Exactly wich video formats does it play atm?
Does it have support for x264, or blueray/hddvd images yet?
If not then i certanly hope its on the to-do list

let me repeat myself (and I HATE to repeat myself!):
First on todo list is to port XBMC to Linux.

So, hey, thinking out loud here. I was wondering if the dev team had decided on whether or not to make this a big monolithic /opt directory type application with all the required codecs and libraries put together in that monolithic directory, or if you'll continue to use all the codecs and such from system libraries.
No suggestions from me on this one, I'm just curious as to which way you're going to go on it.

First off ThANK you!! I truly can appreciate when folks put so much of their time and effort into a project that I believe will revolutionize the video distribution world!
XBMC has always been my favorite application in my house.
I will have to do a lot more reading so I can get involved. I have linux running, feisty to be exact, used to run Fedora. And I have been a user of XBMC for a long time. I have not coded in a very long time, but would hate to repeat others efforts, so for now I will spend the time reading and see if there is somewhere I can jump in a become a lacky.
I basically I am saying THANK YOU to this entire GROUP!!!!

I *love* my XBMC! A lot of gratitude goes out for the main developers of the project!
Seeing that there is now even a really big effort of porting to linux going on just makes me real happy!
Thanks for the hard works guys! Good luck with the project!

I was just wondering how serious you guys are about having the Apple TV as one of the supported systems.
I'm thinking seriously of buying an Apple TV, but I also have my doubts about it's functionallity. If I knew XBMC is coming to the Apple TV I probably would buy one tomorrow.
I know you can't say anything for sure, but I guess you have some idea at least.

Linux (Ubuntu at first) is our first priority. Only once that is working well will we start to think about suitable hardware platforms.
I wouldn't buy any hardware in the hope that XBMC would be ported to it at this point unless you are willing to buy a generic linux box.

Look at http://www.mactel-linux.org/wiki/AppleTV to see that Linux on AppleTV is not there yet and it is difficult to install. Once Linux is working on it we will be able to start looking at it. Currently own only focus is Ubuntu 7.04

I've got an ATV running Feisty -- the install isn't super simple but not too bad using the mb_boot_tv from mythic-beasts. I would bet that there will soon be some much easier ways to install linux on an ATV since apple released an update the other day that contains the boot.efi file that everyone is scared of distributing. Since apple themselves have made it available, someone could write a patchstick script that simply required you to download the update from apple in order to get ahold of the all-important boot.efi. Anyway, I'm certainly willing to help out with testing of XBMC on the ATV platform if the developers have need/want...
