Right of the bat I wanna thank the creators for the XBMC4Xbox version I'm running now.
It is the aweseome version : XBMC4Xbox 3.5-DEV-r32663 (Compiled: Jan 4 2014)
Already clicked the little thumbsup but an extra thanks can never hurt right....
Anyway I have a small question about the speed of the LAN on the Xbox.
I have been using XBMC for as long as I can remember and it has always worked fine but lately
it started pausing the video with the message "Buffering". It usually does it with more "complex"
vid-containers like the example below :
Code: Select all
The Hobbit An Unexpected Journey - Extended Version - HDRIP AC3.avi

Video

Length : 03:02:27
Framewidth : 1280
Framehight : 528
Bitrate : 3164 kbps
Totale bitrate : 3548 kbps
Framespeed : 23 frames per seconde
Audio

Bitrate : 384 kbps
Channels : 6
Audiosampelspeed : 64 kHz
What I found out is that the NIC is only running on 100Mb half duplex. Since I also found out there
was a new build, made in jan 4th, I descided to start from scratch.
I Erased my entire XBOX. All partitions were formatted (with the exception of C:)
Then I installed XBMC4Xbox 3.5-DEV-r32663 and added the win32 drivers.
As epected, it works like a charm.
To be on the safe side;
In "System" -> "settings" -> "System" I have doubled ALL the cache setting in the
the menu's "DvDPlayer cache"en "MPlayer cache".
(With the exception of the "Audio cache" & "Audio cache - max time"...)
-> Now here is the thing. My Xbox still runs at 100Mb, half duplex and if I get the information
about CPU and such I get the following values :
Code: Select all
FreeMem : Between 10.000 KB and 11.000 Kb
FPS : About 24.0 fsp
CPU : Between 54% and 92%
Cache : Between 11% and 100%
only be a matter of time before it probably will start buffering and take the joy
out of "enjoying a movie"...

On a side note, copying anything to my Xbox takes for ever.
I time about 19 minutes for 5.3 Gb of data via SMB
and a staggering 20 minutes for only 1.1 gb of data via FTP !
