Hi
This is my first post so I don't yet know the protocols of the forum.
I have a xbox with xbmc already installed but no navi-x.
How do I get navi-x onto the xbox? I would assume it needs to be connected to the internet.
Forgive the "wet behind the ears" questions

Re: Absolute Beginner
hello and welcome to the forum,
firstly this should have been posted in general help and tutorials and not guides and tutorials maybe im wrong but im sure a mod will be along to sort that out.
really depends on what xbmc build your using, if its a new build simply go to the addonsforxbox installer in your plugins folder, get addons, xbmc4xbox add-ons. The script version is in scripts but i think there is also a plugin version in videos but im unsure. Also note there is a llist of working addons in the addons status above ^)
however if i remember correctly if you are using an older build you have to delete the old cached files from Q:/XBMC/userdata/plugins/programs/addons4xboxinstaller
all info to get you going - http://www.xbmc4xbox.org.uk/forum/viewt ... ?f=7&t=897

Will putting the new repo installer on the xbox wipe my retro game collection?

Re: Absolute Beginner
no its simply a plugin that installs video/music/script plugins etc....
Its done directly to the xbox hdd to erase the need of manually downloading the plugins your looking for from the internet and having to ftp them to the xbox hdd.

Re: Absolute Beginner
I've put XBMC4Xbox onto the Xbox via FTP, I can access the plugins but can't open them. For example Navi-x won't open and Xbox international doesn't download programme info.
The xbox is connected to the net via powerline adaptors if thats any help.

Re: Absolute Beginner
debut log mate cant see anything about it. did you download the programs through the addons4xbox installer or did you ftp them over?
edit - if you did ftp the plugin s in make sure there not in double;e folders. Ive had plugins in the past contained in 2 folders which didn't work. for example it should be navi x folder then its contents not a folder inside a folder before the files if you understand what im talking about

Re: Absolute Beginner
This is what I did:
I used flash ftp to transfer the files to my xbox and put them in the same folder as a pre-existing copy of XBMC. (Forgot the folder )
Then I rebooted the xbox and then went to the folder with the "new" XMBC in it.
I was able to open the repos and add files but can't get anything on them.

Re: Absolute Beginner
again im really not sure mate need a debug log to see whats going on behind the scenes. if your putting a new copy of xbmc on make sure you put it in the apps folder and name it differently that the original xbmc contained in apps then use the file manager to launch the newer xbmc.
not sure whats going on tbh (so post a debug log on pastebin and provide a link) http://www.xbmc4xbox.org.uk/forum/viewt ... p?f=6&t=65
also it could be your ftping to the new build and still using the old one but im not sure

Evening
Sit-Rep is this:
I've managed to access the new xbmc through avalanche (going through Media Centre resulted in an "your xbox doesn't recognise this disc" message.
Navi-X script is running and I'm currently trying to get stations on XBMC International.
Its just so slow.

Re: Absolute Beginner
you still havent posted a debug log please read my previous post - i even provided a link on how to do it.
your xbox doesn't recognize this disk - are you trying to run this from a dvd or something? never heard that one before lol
Its simple and you don't need to use avalaunch.
If your using an old xbmc build load it as normal then ftp the new xbmc to the same folder as your current xbmc but rename it xbmc2 or xbmcnew or something like that. once completed use the file manager to manually boot the new xbmc using the default.xbe contained in the root of the new xbmc folder. now your on the new xbmc if it works rename the old xbmc xbmc old boot that xbmc and rename the xbmcnew or whatever you named it just XMBC agaiun and this will then this xbmc will boot.
also remember the new xbmc builds contain the xbmc4xbox addons installer

Re: Absolute Beginner
A few things to do/rule out:
1) this is an old release - you should get a newer build - have a look here http://www.xbmc4xbox.org.uk/forum/viewforum.php?f=9
2) don't install in a folder with spaces in the name
3) make sure you have free space on the partition.
4) if above fails, you may need to reformat the E: partition and reinstall.

Re: Absolute Beginner
Eureka! It works perfectly. Thank you so much.
I still need help though. How can I get the "justin-tv" script working?

Re: Absolute Beginner
Excellent. Which step fixed it?
Feel free to open a new thread regarding plugins in the python scripts help forum

Re: Absolute Beginner
The first three steps. A lot of old game saves were hogging the memory so clearing them helped.
I'll start a thread on justin.tv on the python forums
Thanks again.
