Just got home. Too lazy/drunk to quote people. Paul, thanks for all the great work you keep putting in. And thanks for putting up with all the people. I really don't like people. I'm a grumpy old man. It's my way. It's why I send you the bits and pieces, and let you put up with the aftermath.
Frater, don't stress, Paul is cool, he just gets the same questions a lot. I know how much effort you do put into helping the different ports of xbmc, so I'm happy to give you any help you need. Just ask when I'm less wobbly.
I'm running my compressed version of the latest github version of Auriga on the xbox. It's running a treat. No memory problems to speak of. When I get all of my personal glitches ironed out I'll dump it to Paul so he can work his magic and make sure all my crap is world ready, then all of you annoying people can see what you think.
P.S. any issues, I don't care, hahaha, bite me.
If I have helped you in any way, please forgive me, it was entirely accidental.

Knows that it says xbox - still thought that it would work on windows though. My tv is not HD anything so were just going for some speed/resource optimization + an easy way to get some of all the nice mods. Did not see it was using xpr - since all the textures are all there in the media folder. And looking at those they looked just fine - so maybe it is the xpr that gives me the problem. Can I switch to the png's ... and not use the xpr?
...Also I am with Cranial on the earlier "issues". So cool down and just enjoy xbmc. And Paul I think it is better not to answer if you feel the question i too much. If you look at the forums lately - and i know you have...there has been quite a lot of "barking".
Keep up the good work.

Thank Paul, about to update right now, can't wait.
I just redid fanart to 720x405 and 80% with IrfanView and it doesn't look good, i'll probably change it again. Also, I deleted my library database and now for some reason I can't get any of my movies into Library unless I view each one as View Movie Information(then it adds to library) I've tried refreshing, rescanning and updating library, and still nothing. Any ideas?

Paul, I'd love to know what you're doing to get 23mb free in tv mode. I can only get 15mb free tops, and thats with fanart off, reduced icons and reduced wallpaper in multiplex view. I set the compression for textures.xpr to low to see if that would squeeze a bit more out, but no joy.

I was expecting much but I was able to get an extra 2mb of memory with this release, and that was using xbmctex not the new XPRExpress, plus the little mod I use that always caused problems with other revisions(memory wise). Plus I've always like those menu backdrops. What ever you're doing keep it up, you know how valuable that memory is....
Side Note--
Anyone get that XPRExpress to work on Windows7, if yes any suggestions?

I've lost 1MB to. But the skin does feel more snappy!
