I was wondering though, (and please forgive me if this is the wrong place to ask) how do you get the video file info, by that I mean, how many audio channels does the rip have? is it an xvid or x264? and so forth
I havent been able to find any plugin that does this, so could anyone please tell me how to enable this?
But I havent been able to compile a working xbmc.exe yet (I get a runtime error every time) so I am still running with the stable release. I dont know if the video info thing is just a part of a never version?
Sorry for being noobish, but could use your help on this one
Yea, the more appropriate place to ask (AFTER Searching "SVN Builds for x" - where x is your OS/setup ) would be over here: http://forum.xbmc.org/forumdisplay.php?fid=111
XBMC will scrape and handle the video file info, once you have a newer svn build. Since you didn't state what OS you're building for... http://sshcs.com/xbmc/ may be a good place to look.
If you are looking for a windows build, there is a thread here: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=35452
Take note that while there are users that are running the bleeding edge builds, we still haven't had an official 'all-clear' from the xbmc developers... back up your current install whenever you're using an SVN build.
