taking a look to xbmc source code i noticed that:

1) starting up it creates some directories which doesn't seem to be useful (i'm not sure). these directories are created inside albums directory and are

string strdir=g_stsettings.m_szalbumdirectory;
createdirectory((strdir+"\\python").c_str(),null);
createdirectory((strdir+"\\scripts").c_str(),null);
createdirectory((strdir+"\\language").c_str(),null);
createdirectory((strdir+"\\visualisation").c_str(),null);

they seems to be something which should be created under home directory, not under albums directory.

2) you've a folder called "visualisations". the correct word is "visualizations".

3) resource id 254 in english.xml says "ac3 passtru" instead of "ac3 passthru".

that's typical of americans. *think they know best http://www.xboxmediaplayer.de/forums/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif

the correct english is as below (from dictionary.com)

visualisation
<graphics> making a visible presentation of numerical data,
particularly a graphical one. this might include anything
from a simple x-y graph of one dependent variable against one
independent variable to a virtual reality which allows you
to fly around the data.

actually, both visualisations & visualizations are correct, however "visualizations" is almost always used in referense to audio visualizations http://www.xboxmediaplayer.de/forums/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif
...i think visualizations looks cooler in writting because of the z, so it gets my vote if it's not to much of a hazzle to change *http://www.xboxmediaplayer.de/forums/non-cgi/emoticons/cool.gif
