+1 for FF MPEG. Incase anyone else is interested in getting 720p videos to play on XBMC with perfect framerate, just download FFMPEG, open command prompt, change the target directory to where you downloaded, and issue the following command: ffmpeg -i "PATH TO FILE\source_video.mkv" -scodec...

HIGH RESOLUTION Reply
im sorry but this is just misinformation and completely false. in fact 3.3 is much faster than 3.1 when loading jpg images such as skin backgrounds. You also don't seem to know the difference between a container and a codec. mkv is a container. saying "HD .mkv" makes no sense when talking...

IF IT FITS, IT SHIPS Reply
Usually for shipping of small objects like that, I'd totally go with the USPS $5 small flat rate boxes. "If it fits, it ships; anywhere"
But those aren't even that much for a SFRB, you could add a little filler packing material, but definetly not a few pounds of it, Lol.

GOOD CALL Reply
3.1 is perfectly responsive in 1080i. no skin stuttering or crashes when video is played.(won't play HD .mkv, has trouble with h.264) It will however upscale 720p avi xvid files and DVDs to 1080i. 3.3 will cause skins to be less responsive. 3.3 will playback videos in 1080i just so long as the vide...

spot on advice! I can now connect to my xbox through FTP on the LAN but can't get it to go online for tvDB lookups etc. Any chance you could share your xbox settings with me? I've given my XBOX 192.168.1.6 as its IP address. I also need webmask (which I assume is 255.255.255.0?) and the default gat...

If you're looking for higher than standard def resolution, there's a miracle little command line based tool called "FF MPEG" that will do the job quite nicely for you.

I'm sorry, but that video is wrong in that sense. 1080 Full HD is higher resolution than 720p. Yes, the "progressive vs interlaced" makes some difference, but the difference at that high of resolution is nothing like it is going from 480i to 480p (which is "night and day"). The d...
