		<description><![CDATA[I have many singles in my music collection &#8211; songs that were released independently of an album, or perhaps in parallel to an album release. As part of an album release, the single may be a particular edit (such as an edit for radio) and thus be somewhat different than the album version of the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m currently reviewing the video library in order to make it far more flexible, as well as making it easier to use. The first thing I&#8217;m evaluating is just what sort of heirarchy is required for Movies and TV shows.  Our current heirarchy gives Genre, Actor, Director, Year, and Studio nodes in addition to the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[nVidia have been kind enough to loan one of our devs (motd2k) an ION reference box that we can use to showcase XBMC at Linuxtag.

It has what appears to be an Atom 230 processor, so compilation of XBMC took just over an hour, but thanks to hardware accelerated video decoding, performance while running XBMC is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With the nice new background loading textures, complete with their own crossfading and so on, it made sense to rewrite the multiimage control to make use of this.  Previously the multiimage control generated however many image controls it needed and did all the fading, texture loading and sizing itself.
Now it just utilizes a single image [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Another couple of nice changes have hit SVN for you skinners.  There&#8217;s been a bug fixed in the large texture manager (that handles background loading of images) &#8211; it used to wait up to a second between loading images, which meant you couldn&#8217;t really use them in situations where you needed a lot of textures [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Just thought I&#8217;d comment on a nice recently added feature. ubikdood did up a nice patch that gave a popup slider dialog, similar to the seek bar and volume bar, when the audio and subtitle delays were adjusted, to give nice, visual feedback as you adjust these settings directly via a keypress.

After discussions with Jezz_X, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As a follow up to my last post, scripters and plugin writers should be aware of the best practises for accessing files under python:
1.  Don&#8217;t use the old Q:, P:, T:, U:, Z: paths. Replace these with their [Link] below.
2.  Use xbmc.translatePath() to translate any path to it&#8217;s true path if/when you need to read [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Just a quick post of gratitude for all the bug reports we&#8217;ve had over the last month or so.  Without your great support at testing things out and taking the time to narrow down and get any issues reproducible, XBMC wouldn&#8217;t be as great as it is now.
As you can see, we&#8217;ve been busy tackling [...]]]></description>
