For me, yes.

Please do not post any more binaries unless they have code with them. We gave you some slack before...
Also, please open a new thread if you'd like feedback on those builds. We don't want users confusing untouched builds with those that have been modified.

StarChild Wrote:I tried a complete clean install several times to. In fact I try that almost with every new release sense I noticed this problem. Yesterday I took a step further, I didn't just delete my userdata and profile, I deleted the updater and I did a search on my computer and deleted everything that appeared and contained 'xbmc'. I also deleted Temp folders and much more. But it didn't help.
I have also search the registry without any signs of version number, but next time I will delete everything that have something to do with xbmc in the registry to try if that helps.
I've also tried to disable 'Application modification detection' in my firewall without luck.
I also did a new thing. I skipped a version and instead did go directly from XBMCSetup-Rev24064-gl.exe to XBMCSetup-Rev24114-gl.exe.
The thing with that is that Rev24114 reported version 24102 which have never been installed at all on my system. So the conclusion I took of that was that the version number isn't stored in my system.
But the mystique remains why the same build reports different things on different machines. What OS are you guys use? and what language?

StarChild Wrote:Ok, It's just not the dx build that reports the wrong version. what does the gl build reports for you?

I can confirm that Rev24114-gl does show up as a diferent build
azido Wrote:of course that's nothing that harms the usage of xbmc, but it can be irritating when you need to report the version number to track down where an issue started.You got a point there but still not a major issue and i am sure the issue will be rectified in the near future
