Default Testbuild rev #12563

Another one https://sourceforge.net/project/show...ease_id=585323

Look at the svn changelog for changes. System.Exec should work with this build.

Hi...

i am so lost right now... i am newb to this and i am barely scratching the surface...

anyways, i was not able to browse the network with the build i had... i downloaded the one you posted and replaced my XBMC_PC.exe with this one (i renamed it to xbmc_pc.exe). i was able to browse the network and my music plays, but i can only do it in window mode... and since i am doing it on a laptop that is 1024x768, xbmc wont fit.. its too wide. If i run it with "-fs" in the bat file, the screen looks like it opens, but i only get a black screen.

can someone help me on this issue? what do i need to replace or download to have a working xbmc on my laptop?

thanks so much

sorry for yet another newb question again, but it might help others too.. where is the best place to view the changelog, in particular with what you are doing for the windows port?

this version makes a new step forward

i have found a little not realy important bug

the audio visualisation (win_wave) is only visible if the mouse cursor is visible

storing the configs in the local xbmc folder is realy good solution for me

my xbmx runs with 1600x1200 nearly perfect

You're very close to the solution. You need to go to your AppData folder (in XP, this is \Documents and Settings\User (your name)\Application Data | in Vista, \User (your name)\AppData) and delete the XBMC folder there. Then, run your xbmc.exe file. It should show up again and be too big. Get to the settings and set your resolution to 1024x768 (don't use Desktop 0x0), exit XBMC, and relaunch. It should be fullscreen now.

is the -fs not necessary anymore? and what is desktop 0x0 for?

this sure has came a long way in a short period of time!
