XBOX_Media_Center_2005-01-15_build-INDPosted 04:17:41am 01/15/2005
Jan 15th build of Xbox Media Center (www.xboxmediacenter.com)

Including Project Mayhem & Project Mayhem II skins

Set Render Method to "YUY2 Overlays" for improved video quality (Settings
-> My Videos -> Video Filters)...

added/fixed: (dd-mm-yyyy) (please specify date in CET)
  - 14-01-2005 changed: extended asx parsing to support entryref tags and
different tag-casing
  - 14-01-2005 added: [ 1097753 ] Updated XBMC masterlock/share lock code
(Thanks to slacker)
  - 13-01-2005 fixed: Album thumbs don't show as icon for folder in listview

  - 13-01-2005 updated: Norwegian language file (Thnx to vnmartinsen)
  - 13-01-2005 fixed: [ 1039490 ] Fan speed reset to full speed on exit on
1.6 Xbox
  - 11-01-2005 fixed: LPCM audio from ex. Music Video DVD's would only
create static.
  - 11-01-2005 fixed: Button scroller issues on homepage.
  - 11-01-2005 added: Third rendering method using overlays.  Added purely
to help find the reason behind the
                      quality improvements gained from the previous overlay
method.  This new method is identical
                      to the previous overlays method, except it uses
mplayers builtin YV12->YUY2 fast convertor.
                      Further info will be available later today in the thread:
                       
http://www.xboxmediaplayer.de/cgi-bin/forums/ikonboard.pl?;act=ST;f=3;t=3916
                      NB: This output looks identical to my eyes as the
output from the pixel shader.
  - 11-01-2005 changed: Webserver authentication now defaults to BASIC
instead of DIGEST.  Solves Firefox issues.
  - 10-01-2005 added: Second rendering method using overlays.
                      Renderers can be switched from the GUI (Video
Settings->Filters)
                      Known Issues: 1080i may not be 100% in terms of
Aspect ratio - it hasn't been tested
                                    Renderers cannot be switched on the fly
- change will take effect at
                                    next movie play.
                                    Overlays method is much slower than the
pixel shader method - reason is
                                    mostly to do with the software
YV12->YUY2 conversion done by mplayer.
