keep up the great work

Not the original but the EventClient one should work.
on the SVN its in /tools/EventClients/Clients/WiiRemote/
how to use it should be in the readme. /tools/EventClients/README.txt
<EDIT>The EventClient uses the same codebase and renders the "old" deprecated so for anyone else I'd suggest to make the move. It's not in code at all any longer</EDIT>

I have just uploaded a new version to the PPA :

Code:
xbmc (2.1a1b2-gutsy1) gutsy; urgency=low

  * add the debug symbol package

  * change the launcher icon to the one provided by djdafreund

    * create the log file by default and give it the universal rigths

    * Activate support for WII remote (via configure option)

Looking at the logs, I have noticed that xbmc wanted to create a plugins directory but couldn't.

<EDIT>NVM, keep it. it's better mapped. BUT I still suggest you all to use the EventClient one instead Smile

Just to confirm - VOB/IFO playback still a no-go. I can hit TAB to go fullscreen but subs are on and it's really jerky with both video and audio stuttering. Still using my XBOX for ripped DVD :-( Will try latest SVN and report back if it's fixed.

AFAIK wattazoum's package is the exact same 2.1a1p1 release that I put out some time ago, just packaged better. The fixes haven't been backported yet, that's up to the devs. Waiting on 2.1a1p2.

Ah okay thanks, not tried the latest SVN but as of last night the SVN was at the very least still playing in a corner. I know the subs can be turned off somewhere at least but damned if *I* can find it! Sad

So that is likely not a bug at least. Tongue

Watching for updates, keeping the SVN up too.

I'm running the SVN myself now. I think we've found all the low-hanging fruit in the A1P1 release.

Hi,

Thanks for the package. I am using ubuntu 7.1 and installed with the debian package.

Everything works final I can play most of the video format. One thing which is wired that when I playing RMVB video, I can just have the audion but no video. It is just like I am listening to MP3.

Is there anything I have missed? Is it a config file issue or I need to have updated codec?

Thanks.

Cheers.

Just an FYI i'm not sure if the dependencies on the packages are correct. I used synaptic to install the xbmc packages from the PPA on a clean Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon) system. It did determine that some dependencies needed to be installed and reported that it completed successfully but XBMC would not run until I ran the command string from section 3 of the README.linux document.

Thank you Devan. That exactely the kind of information I was hopping for. I'll try to install XBMC on a command line only system so that I can pinpoint the the missing dependancies. BTW, when launching XBMC did you see wich library was missing ?

- devanl - 2008-04-04

I knew that was likely to be something you'd want, sadly I don't have a record of what was missing. I'm not sure that it reported the dependency error but it did cause me to check the dependencies from the build process were installed.

Sorry Sad

wattazoum - I run a command line only system and I was able to apt-get install xbmc and have it run without a problem. Don't know if this info is of any use to you but I thought I would share.
