DVD drive problems on XBMC4Xbox under titan patched evox m8+ with UDMA5 enabled

has anyone had the same issues I have? the DVD drive under standard XBMC and other apps fails to detect DVDs (always shows as empty), this is hinted in Titan's readme on its github , but it's a software problem -- it should be fixable, for example XBMC4Gamers has it fixed, but it can't play media in...

any way to get XBMC4XBOX's video output modeline?

Hi, I'm making something to replace XBMC4Xbox as my media center for occasionally watching retro stuff on a CRT TV, it's pretty good, supports MKVs a lot better than the aging XBOX ever could, along with subtitles and so on. But I yearn for the XBOX's video output on a CRT - it looks so crisp, clean...

Subtitles not working in DVDPlayer... Where to get old XBMC4Xbox versions?

Hi, So I'm having the old subtitles problem... they don't work on 3.5.3 when using DVDPlayer, and MPlayer is sadly too slow and choppy. But I've read that if I downgrade to 3.5 beta 3 or something, they would work. Problem is, I can't find that version, could someone please give a download link so I...

Re: Subtitles not appearing on certain MKV files

Great! got it working. Just in case anyone has the same issue: turns out that XBMC4XBOX does not support the SubStationAlpha subtitle format, so it won't display those kinds of subtitles. I had to extract those from each episode of this show, convert them into SubRip SRT, then multiplex new MKV file...

Subtitles not appearing on certain MKV files

Hi, So I've got these mkv files that will not display subtitles, so I can't watch. I don't think it's the video file itself because in kodi for the pc and using MPlayer within XBMC4Xbox they appear, just not when using DVDPlayer (which ends up meaning it's unwatchable on the xbox because MPlayer run...

Re: Possible to browse UPnP share added to XBMC remotely?

Hello Dan Dar3, Yes, navigating it locally and playing files (using xbmc's user interface going to Music -> dlna share from the main menu) works fine, which is why i asked if it could be done *remotely* with either of my clients The DLNA Server is just a run-of-the-mill Raspberry Pi 2 running Raspbi...

Possible to browse UPnP share added to XBMC remotely?

Hi, I've set up my music collection on a remote hard drive connected to my network. It uses DLNA which is compatible with XBMC4XBOX (I can browse it and play files from it just fine) but I need to use my TV every time so I can browse it. When I try it using the web interface or the XBMC4XBOX Remote,...

Re: XBMC momentarily stops for some seconds during CD-audio playback

I see an error about not being able to load a libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll, that's a bit odd cause that is a GCC library not a MSVC library, might be from one of the dependendant libraries. Also, I see the log was taken from a 3.6-DEV build which may have this issue. 12:33:23 M: 55349248 NOTICE: ------------...

Re: XBMC momentarily stops for some seconds during CD-audio playback

Oh, true, I forgot to enable debug logging. I've enabled it and then let 2 tracks play (each of them stopped one time and thus outputted some more information.) Here's the resulting file: https://pastebin.com/6rn94LH1

XBMC momentarily stops for some seconds during CD-audio playback

Hello, I've noticed that every single time, in the same seconds during cd-audio playback, it stops for 5 to 10 seconds, it also locks up the system during that time. I'm sure it's not a wear out of the laser or cd scratched issue, because on UnleashX it plays fine. Also when I booted a fresh XBMC it...

Re: keymapping woes

No, you did pretty good investigating this. Not sure if you're running on the latest 3.5.3 version (can check in System Info or top of Q:\xmbc.log) or whether you tried with better luck the default Confluence Lite skin? I could re-build v3.5.3 for you without the piece of code that I think might be...

Re: keymapping woes

Sorry for that horrible explanation that I gave before and thanks for your help, Dan Dar3. I was using the Xbox-Classic skin but have since switched to Project Mayhem III, and it does the same error. I've tested further, and the enter key works fine all the menus except for the Music, Videos and App...

Never mind, I've become acquainted with using a really nice video converter that gives me great quality without hogging the CPU. I've also applied thermal compound to the CPU and the GPU, then upgraded to the latest xbmc4xbox release and it never crashes, even with the computationally intensive code...

keymapping woes

Hello, I've just soldered in a usb socket on my XBOX and quite surprisingly, this little USB remote (it's actually just an HID keyboard in a small pcb fit to look like a remote) that I bought over ebay happens to work, but only its arrow keys will work properly. Oddly, when I move the keys to the le...

I'm running 480p MKV files on an xbox through DLNA, it works quite well for anything except for MKV. people say sub-720p MKV files work fine but in my case it crashes XBMC4Xbox, running out of memory. Any tips as to what I should tune up to improve it? I've tested changing cachemembuffersize in adva...

Samba client keeps asking for password [SOLVED]

Hello, I'm setting a NAS with a raspberry pi and I can't get XBMC4Xbox to join my share. I've set 2 shares for the same drive, one read only with anonymous login enabled and one with write protection and a samba user set up on it. I just can't get it to work either way and I don't understand why. On...
