I tried many dvds on xbmc 3.5, there are no issues with dvdplayer. try enabling/disabling dvd intro skipping (that could in rare cases end in a loop but thats not a problem related to xbmc).
If this doesnt help you can unpack the iso and manually edit/patch the dvd intro using pcgedit.

That's what I was assuming: your subtitle is a SSA. I read in past that there were problems playing these. Seems like a bug, a debug log is needed like:
1) enable debug 2) play video file 3) pause 4) enable subtitle 5) resume video 6) upload log

@ramon
no, that is not a known bug. I just said that everyone has to calibrate the screen.

So if you have checked your subtitle position next step would be posting debug log and mediainfo of mkv file because it seems the container could be special.

@ramon that is a problem everyone has. I dont know why this is set up overscaled but you can see it when anyone post screenshots on the pictures are black borders caused by calibrating. Of course you should also check the filenames like keith said but I was assuming your files were untouched as you ...

If you set up all right and are sure the subtitles should show up than the only problem I can imagine is that maybe the position of displaying the subtitles is calibrated out of display range... -> you can try the position by calibrating screen For me all mkv files having subs show correct also on 3.5

Your welcome, good to hear that it's working for someone, too
(Should by the way work on both python 2.x and 3.x)

every video works in 480p (-> that means SD) on xbox...

I didn't test your code but you can find out using the answer from "PearsonArtPhoto" Link If you find out you have no rights copy the files to different path or something. If you have no access try a delay or try to find out what has the file in use or if that doesnt help get the fileright...

No. But I would say they dont check if the drive is closed that would in my opinion check the bios. But if its checked by games that would be the only reason for setting jumpers. Just try if some games check that...

Hey Jan,

Which Script do you mean does already what i implemented?
If you know the algorithms to make a mainline skin xbox compatible i would like to implement it aswell

Greets

I'm pretty sure I was right with my guess...
I would recommend to not try to set the jumpers even if that would solve your problem it is still a bug and you have a risc of damage...

I found source code from windows port of XScreensaver here and would like to port one figure (600-cell) of "Polytopes" screensaver. I took a look at the source code of the built in x4x screensavers but didn't had any idea what is needed to get the windows one (cpp) working on x4x. Does any...

Do you mean something like this? http://www.xbmc4xbox.org.uk/forum/viewt ... =15&t=2948
I only implemented a few things to get basic skin working because other things me and other users didn't know...

If I understand correct you have two bioses flashed, one with dvd skip hack and one without. You say both boot fine without probs -> this would mean you dont have your dvd drive separated from your xbox. If I'm right pls put of the yellow wire (electricity) from dvd drive and try again... blackonwom...

That sounds like a bug. I think the code was written assuming xbox has dvd drive so the special case isn't checked and obviously if the status is expected from system but doesnt come it runs forever as you said. You should create a ticket: http://redmine.exotica.org.uk/projects/xbmc4xbox/issues Btw ...

If you've expected a more professional answer I have to say there is only one alternative way. Export sql table and reimport it or parts ("unwatched status") of it. But to behonest that would cost much time and maybe it would give the same result as my suggest before. So easily copy and pa...

I would say if you backup your "userdata" folder than install 3.5 than paste userdata it gives you the desired result but for this your current xbmc install shouldnt be too old...

I know that you use 128mb and also all others are using 128mb which developed or use it. So there have never been anyone seeing it doesnt work on retail xbox. I'm using Confluence Lite but that shouldnt make it. The change to 480p makes a bigger difference. Also the stream which I tried to load is l...

Thanks for your reply. I would assume I dont have full codec support enabled but I will have a look. For me it seems m3u8 is to hard for 64mb xbox. At latest state xbox has 32mb ram free next second it is already crashed... Edit: I didnt have full codec support enabled. I now tried having it enabled...

Just want to say that for me HLS streaming (m3u8) doesnt work with 64mb xbox (I even set screen output to 480p). It crashes after loading 2 seconds. Doesnt matter which stream/site. On mainline all of them work. Also posting debug isnt possible it seems it crashes too hard to write to debug. Maybe i...
