I'm guessing something went wrong copying the url. It should be

Code:

wget https://github.com/Bram77/xbmc-ubuntu-minimal/raw/master/12.10/prepare_install_2_6.sh

I think CTRL+ALT+F1 will do the trick? But the best way to do it is by using SSH (putty from Windows) as described in the howto.

Hey Bram,

nice to see you are doing a new script with , from what i can see a shit load of work.

A feature request tho, the possibility to set our own source location ( where i get TVheadend etc from.
And if you going to make a extended web based manager, maybe look into a TV channel editor for tvheadend ( was thinking for xbmc , but it reloaded the listing at every boot )

-Oh, will this script be a replacement for the xbmc http control ? would be a great place to have it.


Well if you need a alpha.beta tester , let me know.
willing to put some work into testing.

cheers.

Can anyone please help!

I seem to be having issues navigating to certain system folders from within the XBMC UI.

I am currently trying to set up Artwork Organizer add-on with the Aeon MQ4 Skin. The instructions instruct you to browse to a local folder and set the path to:

/home/xbmc/.xbmc/userdata/addon_data/script.artworkorganizer/ArtistFanart

However when in XBMC I can never seem to navigate down the folder structure far enough. For example if I click the browse button and select Home Folder, then I cannot see any of the sub folders.





If I then attempt to select Root File System instead



Then Home



Then XBMC



Again I can then not see any further sub folders.



Should I be able to browse to the Artwork Organizer add-on data folders in this manner?

Thanks

You need to enable 'show hidden folders' in the XBMC configuration to be able to access hidden folders (directory and file names that start with a '.' are hidden files in linux)

Thank you ! That now works. I must have over looked that option in the settings

Hi Bram,

I installed xbmc on my new hardware using 2.6 script this weekend - it is fantastic

Everything works 10+ with Ivy Bridge and Intel HD2500.

I have small problem which i think is not script related, but just wanted to ask is someone suffering from same problems.

Sometimes after reboot xbmc is just burning my cpu, if i stop and start it, everything is ok.

Here is thread with details

thanks

@Bram77

Here's a quick and dirty HOW-TO quick fix for 24p and 23.976p playback on the ION1 with NVidia 304.60 drivers (Hopefully will help script get a bit better)

We start with the xorg.conf for 30x.x drivers (for 29x.xx another xorg.conf will be needed). Still using minimalistic install script to work fully.
So on and ahead we go!

Code:

mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak
wget http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=pQA9W8Bn -O /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Now setup xbmc for all this to work as follows in screenshots!

Step 1)

Step 2)

On this next one we are selecting auto for de-interlace (!!very important!!) and then saving it for all movies.

Step 3)

Yes last one, that's it... Set default for all Movies... and walla.! Click YES on XBMC dialog.

Step 3a)

Code:

DISPLAY=:0 /usr/lib/xbmc/xbmc-xrandr

My xbmc-xrandr output is also pimped out!

Now everyone's misery, pain, blood sweat and tears and even a little pee, should allow us to enjoy perfectly smooth playback in XBMC from the usual media sources.

This thanks to many hours of scouring topics and to a wonderful creature called fritsch! We Love fritsch and in fritsch we trust with our virgins.

Apologies to everyone for nagging yesterday and before, dire!!

Hi,

I am trying to follow this using a Zotac ID80 with Nvidia 304.84 drivers. I have installed latest version of XBMCBuntu.

My tv is a little older and only capable of 720p. When I set the resolution as mentioned in this quoted post the only refresh rates available to me are 30 and 30.03. Should I not be trying to follow this guide with my type of tv?

[un1versal]

The xbmc settings are ok, the xorg.conf and specifically modelines are only for (1080) full HD not HD ready (720) TV's the values would have to be calculated for 720p (HD ready) and if you do that then it can be used.

Thanks for the reply. How would I go about calculating the modelines for 720? I don't think I will be able upgrade tvs for a while so would like to get the most of this setup.
