DTS and AC3 should work. For other fixes see the svn change log. It's still alpha and we give no support.
For problems/bugs link a pastbin of the full log and explain what you're doing to reproduce the issue.
i'll ask a dumb question at the expense of incurring somebodies wrath, but i havent done any ugrades to xbmc before this.
i have installed xbmc based on the guide provided in this forum. i have no downloaded the above file as well, which containts xbmc.exe, libcmyth.dll and visualization.s now i know i can jsut copy ove rthe visualzation 2 files into vis folder, and ive also located the dll at xbmc\system so i can overwrite the file. but the previous version used xbmc_pc.exe, while this has xbmc.exe. should i overwrite xbmc.exe with this file (renaming this to xbmc_pc.exe so i dont have to change the bat file)?
thanks
no need for the bat file just launch the new exe. and yes to the rest
everything perfect, except for video issue.. screen looks like it has 4 sections.. only upper left section has good video.. here is log..

Video still runs fast with no sound when digital audio is selected.

Did you clean your profile.xml and profil dir? Has nothing todo with the video and audio thingy but I wonder about your log and the mappings of the directories. It still looks wrong for me but didn't remember seeing this in my log. Anyway have to check that.
Also pointing to sample data may help even though I can't reproduce everything due to missing equipment.

Ive got the same problem on my mediaenter. Its got an ATI x1200 onboard videocard with HDMI output. Im running 1080P.
On my gaming PC ive got no problems. Its got a Nvidia 8800GTX graphics card.
Both got the latest drivers.
Any ideas?
FIrst of all i awesome work!
I am a long time suer of xbmc for the xbox.
Now i tried xbmc for widnows and it works great!
Only one problem which is noticed:

yes, just start it with the -fs option. Like:
xbmc.exe -fs
Guys, are you really sure you used a fresh t3ch build and cleaned the $user_home\XBMC directory?
From your log the P: drive mapping is wrong, it should be equal to the T: drive.

It was first time I installed XBMC on my mediacenter, so yes. :-)
But I doubt that a graphic glitch on ATI cards can be caused by directory problems.
The screen is divided in four. The top left square contains the video. In the 3 remaining squares a faint shadow is moving around. And the color is distorted on the video square.
I have tried all render settings and resolution. No go.

I found a solution to the ATI problem in another thread:
Apparently theres problems with the OpenGL/XBMC in the newer drivers, but the 7.4 drivers work.
I have uploaded the DLL's thats needed here:
XP DLL
http://rapidshare.com/files/100777527/atioglxx_xp_7.4.zip
Vista 32 bit DLL
http://rapidshare.com/files/100777633/atioglxx_vista_7.4.zip
Download the ZIP file according to your operating system and unzip the file in your XBMC directory.

i use the .dll from here (7.11 drivers)
http://www.driverheaven.net/windows-xp-2k-radeon-display-drivers/155629-ati-catalyst-8-3-out-now-3.html
Questions:
1) is it possible to disable some buttons? more specificaly: programs - scripts
The first one is useless on PC and the second one hangs the XBMC
2) can it be used with a remote? if yes how?
Thanks
Mf
P.S:
GREAT JOB!

I'm having no luck with this version ether I deleted any thing to do with xbmc off my c drive and out of my registry and did a fresh install.
http://pastebin.com/m56e1face
The only difference for me is that looks for sources.xml "application data\xbmc"
instead of just in the application data folder is self.
from looking at other peoples logs they seem to be getting the same errors but xbmc starts up for them I just don't get it.
Hi there,
I'm also getting fast playback and no audio when digital audio is selected.
I deleted the folder in documents and settings and the same behavior was observed.
I have an Abit AN-M2HD motherboard with onboard 7.1 "HD" audio. (nVidia 630a chipset) This is outputted via an optical spdif.
The video is also onboard - the nVidia 7050 with video outputted via HDMI to my 1080p display.
This is fantastic work - the new build enabled seeing my mapped network drives! :))
Thanks!

I noticed (using fresh build yesterday i made, as well as download build link here.) i wasn't getting video (black background, with audio), but after looking in the settings, for some reason the video settings was set for 4x3 PAL, so i switched it to 1440x900 (desktop resolution), and it's playing video just fine. Granted sometimes (1/4 of the time) it does freeze when selecting a title or movie directory it locks up sometimes, but that's cool, it's experimental anyway for now. And it doesn't always do that, depends on the daily build.
dj try setting it to best Availiable that always uses the current UI res in the SDL versions I'm pretty sure
djdafreund
2008-03-20, 06:50
Cool, i'll try that. I use 1440x900 anyway with my flatscreen monitor, that's why i figured that res would be always right since i also set the XBMC res to 1440x900 also. Thanks again Jezz.

if the video is fast but looking ok (not only green) then it should be a sound problem - like many users had/have this behaviour in OSX and Linux as far as i know.

Yeah, it looks perfect but just runs too fast with no sound only when digital is selected, if analogue is used then both play fine. I've disabled the on-board sound.
for me is fine on the analog audio...

AC3 plays fine with analog audio but DTS has a hissing/distorted sound (when digital is selected, I experience the same as many others: super speed playback with no audio). I'm using Vista SP1 with an ASUS P5K-VM board using the on-board HD Audio.
Another quirk with this build, the Win32 visualizations work but in the Main Menu, they only appear if the the mouse cursor is active. When the mouse disappears, so does the visualization.
Personally, I can't express how excited I am to see this project. I ADORE XBMC but the lack of HD playback was limiting my use of it lately. As bad as Vista Media Center is, I was trying to make it usable.
Keep up the great work and if there's some place to make donations, please let us know!

Yeah, it's playing vid's fine on mine when using Analog (including a new build today i made.), but it IS acting up when switching audio to Digital. I hear audio, i see the time counter in bar at bottom counting, but video is frozen.
I currently am using my 5 channel computer speakers mounted, and my 37inch HDTV is mounted above my 20inch Samsung flatscreen, so i usually flip and use that for watching movies anyway (using my xbox and optical input of my audigy 2 pro front panel.) But this is for testing anyway, so i'm sure the Digital problem being reported will be fixed in time.

Guys,
Are you guys having issues when playing anything via digital audio or only when sending AC3 content over the digital link? With mine set to digital, all normal stereo stuff plays absolutely fine, its just the AC3 encoded stuff that doesn't work. Set to analog, anything plays but only as stereo.
I'm blown away by the vid quality as my Bluray rips look just as good as with Zoomplayer, stunning! Great stuff fellas!
I get a black screen with audio when I try to play any video file. Using onboard Intel GMA3100 graphics. Any ideas?

Look at those lines:
@line238 DEBUG: Unable to resolve msvcr71.dll div
@line407 OpenGL version 1.5 detected
@line408 GL_ARB_texture_rectangle not supported and OpenGL version is not 2.x
Coulde the problem be something with the msvcr71.dll file?
Or my graphic card not support open gl version 2??
Thx in advance!

I have the same problem. I have put it down to inadequate hardware (Dell P3 latitude laptop). I don’t think the crash is anything to do with the last line in your log as other logs have the same entry and still run. What platform are you trying to run it on?
If someone can make a suggestion as to how much memory should be available and any other “minimum” requirements, I would be grateful.
I am happy to watch the amazing progress made in such a short period and will use this project to justify the purchase of a brand new shiny media centre.

Using a new build today "12226 changed: [WIN32] enabled some optimization for release builds." here is 2 pastebin's.
The 1st one is using Analog audio mode. I play one video (mpeg4-avi), it plays fine, as soon as i play a 2nd one, i get audio, but no video, it stays at the video selection screen, and i have to manually stop XBMC with it sitting on "Not Responding" in Task Manager.
http://pastebin.com/d6bedde1c
This 2nd one is using Digital audio, also only playing mpeg4-avi's. I selected 3-4 video's, but it does nothing but clicks. Then i tried 'Shutdown" and it hangs at 100% resources.
http://pastebin.com/d6ced6743
Now, using Build 12185, i can play 3-4 video's in a row with no freezing at all it seems in Digital. Here's pastebin-
http://pastebin.com/d48381cbd
Here's with Analog audio mode. The 1st time it froze after selecting the 1st video, i manually closed out xbmc, and the 2nd time, i could play 3-4 in a row with no freezes. Weird.
http://pastebin.com/d2faf7433
Very random behavior i'm getting for test results.
Hope that helps.

You could be right about my PC its running more slowly than it should and there may be an underlying problem with my PC, its had a hard life.
I'm running XP pro on 2.0 gig hertz processor and have a gig of ram. Which is not good enough for a lot of HD x264 content but it shouldn't pose a problem just starting up the app. These two errors may be at fault or may not be the course of our problems but .exe trying to launch two files that don't exist all seem a bit unnecessary. But what do I know ???

I'm coming from the XBMC on the Xbox backround here.. so my goal was to make this work as well as that. So far it plays videos just fine for me, networking also works very well.. I'm playing my pre-existing over the network SMB shares, I was even able to copy my UserData over from the Xbox over to The Windows computer and I've got all my TV Show descriptions and artwork. I wanted a Remote Control so I hooked up my Usb-Uirt, and installed Eventghost and configured it to use keyboard presses now I've got a fully functional remote control. In doing this I've noticed that the Context menu isn't functional under the Windows version of XBMC.. It works fine on the Linux port though.
Once this is fixed, I think this version is up to par to start sharing it with my Windows friends. I'm very excited Thanks for everyones hard work on this it's really worth it.
where do you guys get the new builds? i dont see any links posted im using 12815 someone mentioned build 12226.

djdafreund builds it himself from source. 12815 is the most recent available on here.
Success.. i download the oldest ATI open GL drivers I could find, ver 6.1 from 2006 and video plays now.. it all looks good to me.. will keep playing..
