XBMX 3.2 stable wont launch

Post by joselito »

I am on a modden xbox running Evo-x +3935 and have an old version of xbmc (version 1.1.0 12-3-2004) which loads just find, I downloaded 3.2 stable and dragged the files via ftp to the xbox and edited my evox.ini file to point to the new install on 3.2 into a folder called xbmc2 and when I try to launch it, the screen goes black and nothing happens. I tried to launch the default.xbe from the folder uing the file explorer and still nothing happens. What am I doing wrong? I cant post a current log file because the 3.2 doesnt give me one but the old xbmc does.


Edit: I followed these instructions and now it works.

To update XBMC you will need to take these steps:

0: If updating from a version older then 6 months then please remove all of XBMC and start freash!
1: Get the new T3CH cvs/point release.
2: Unrar the file to your pc harddrive.
3: Check the changelog for db (database changes). (If the Video and or Music section wont work after the upgrade please delete the Albums folder inside XBMC\userdata directory)
4: Ftp in to the xbox and delete the E:\TDATA\0face008 folder (or delete the xbmc savegame from the msdash.)
6: If there where any db changes since your last version then delete the XBMC\userdata\Albums directory
7: Either delete the old XBMC files or make sure you overwrite them. I suggest you delete the skinfolder as it may have redundent xml´s etc.
8: Check the System/players/mplayer/codecs folder if any new dll´s are supported. (if you do not have any codecs there or need to update you can find a download location for all supported codecs in the pinned topic)

If your booting the .xbe file of the build and it isn't booting, there is something wrong with the build or your copy of the build. Try just reloading the .xbe file after you've deleted it 1st and then try again. If I ever have problems with Filezella, it is always in the .xbe file of the build. ;) If you still have no luck, try another build.

Thanks, I tried a few different builds, I guess I failed to do this.

"If you use Evo-X please go to System Utils and then Settings.

There Set IGR (In Game Resets) to NO and do the same for TSR.

Do not forget to SAVE and EXIT at the bottom of the screen"

I also did step 4 in instructions I posted above and it worked for me.
