I was wondering, in terms of snappiness, is there a way to offset some of the load from the CPU to the GPU for processing HD backdrops +/ textures? I mean something equivalent to .dds fanart images and advanced setting <useddsfanart> which made a huge difference on my setup.
Maybe this is more of a gneral XBMC questions than a skin one? Not sure
Cheers!
Thanks kiboy6 - Well the skin has all the necessary image background loading controls in place for the various views etc but no I think what you're asking would be better placed, like you say, as a general XBMC query.
Also another update - I've integrated Ronie's rebuilt Last.FM artist slideshow script for use in the music visualisation screen. So far it's only available in the Eden Pre version as I'm now concentrating on developing there. I really like how it works and how it provides a seamless way of getting a slideshow on the screen. So big thanks to Ronie and Driving Mule for the original Last.FM slideshow script.
