@veysey, Hopelessone: glad that its working. I will add the new library and 64bit detection to the next release.
@all:
I have finished a new test version with a fullscreen video browser (first working video support on xbox;-)). I am still working on it and there are some known issues. But I would be glad if some of you could download it and try it out in this early stage.
Download link: http://romcollectionbrowser.googlecode.c...0V0.6g.zip
Add this line to every RomCollection in your config.xml and import Settings again (maybe you have to restart RCB):
Now you should see a button "Play Video Fullscreen" below the screenshots in Info and Info2 view.
RCB uses standard XBMC playlist and fullscreen player so I don't have a lot of possibilities to interact with the playback. It creates a video playlist with every game in your current filter selection and starts playback in fullscreen. You can zap the videos of all filtered games and use the builtin Info Overlay with title, thumbnail and duration.
I had to make some changes to my keymap.xml to get the zapping feature (make sure that you have access to "SkipNext" and "SkipPrevious" in FullscreenVideo and FullscreenInfo):
Windows/Linux keyboard.xml:
Xbox keymap.xml
I tested this on Windows, Linux and Xbox. On a PC this is quite smooth. On xbox there may be some performance issues. But xbox performance is a general todo on my list.
Known issues:
- Zapping in "Video browser" does not change selection when you come back to RCB
- If there are videos missing in your game list, RCB will start fullscreen video with a wrong starting video
Feel free to report any new issues here in the thread or add an issue to the list at the projects page.
Regards,
malte
