I'll be waiting then. Thanx for answering. Now I'll concencrate on solving problems with playing livesterams starting with @foad796 notice.
[Android Apps and Games] staticaDK:
I have not deleted the builds from my ftp so I do have older builds but as I still keep getting people hammering my ftp I will not make it a mirror again as I have 4 IP addresses that have hammered my ftp and they are now banned. That is just today and last night that 4 people has tried to connect more than 5 times within 1 minute.

So if older builds are needed then you (kemonine96) can get them from my ftp but I will only reopen your account and not the public one as I think that the hammering was reason for HDD warning as it was running hot as I didnt have powerouts on pc and other electronics I dont think it was a power surge as first suspected.
[Android Apps and Games] AzNTypeR:
Yeah 480p and 720p Play fine and 1080p theres a slight delay/lag but its still watchable.

Seems to just be XBMC (im using Non-Neon BTW)
[Android Apps and Games] kemonine96:
XBMC doesn't have hardware decode support currently which is where your problems are coming from by the sounds.
[Android Apps and Games] kemonine96:
I have build products stored locally on my build box. I expect ~4 weeks of builds to be available in the long-run. I was just pointing out that we do have old builds available for download and the links are in the 2nd post.

We can also post older builds that are no longer hosted briefly if someone really does need one.

[Android Apps and Games] ZeekWorld:
Same thing happens on my CM9 HP Touchpad, tested the last two builds and no go, I am back to an older build.

I experienced it with 1 Channel stream news channels and Navi-X Live TV news (seems to be the live streams)
[Android Apps and Games] kemonine96:
Is this just for a live stream? Not for the main app? Can you guys post logcats?
[Android Apps and Games] ZeekWorld:
It doesn't affect the app, I can load the app and for example browse and select news and when I click on CNN I can see the spinning clock trying to load the stream and boom, xbmc exits and send me back to my home cm9 screen.

ok, just figured out how to pull logcats

I started the logs after opening XBMC

What I did was: Went to programs addons - Navi-X - NAvi-Xtreme MEdia Portal - Navi X Networks - Live Tv (XBMC Only) - Live TV News - CNN

[Android Apps and Games] kemonine96:
I appreciate the logcats but there is a ton of breakage and churn in the upstream sources. The devs have stated that the sources should be a lot more stable in a few days. Can you guys try again on or after 2012/09/08? I will be linking to updated versions at that time. Jenkins will continue to auto-post new builds, but they should be considered very broken / only for the brave.

Upstream's merge window closes on 2012/09/10 and at that time things should start stabilizing again.

If you are using a build from after 2012/09/02 there are likely all kinds of problems. Upstream has a merge window open and things are changing and breaking frequently. Builds after 2012/09/08 or 2012/09/12 should be a bit more stable again.

Helpful Music Player Insight

Hi All,

I've done some extensive evaluation of several top "Music Player" apps and a few OEM versions that come with Android phones. Here's some insight on phones that might not be noticeable to those of us who used PC based Media Center applications (XBMC). I'm pretty exited about this app, just trying to help, sorry if not the correct place to mention.

Music Image Tagging:

Many apps use the internal media scan engine. They use the image from Song-1 in an album for all the songs in that album. So if someone creates a compilation album, tags artwork for each song, only Song-1 image is displayed regardless of the song played in that compilation album. When sorting by "Artist", all those MP3's in the compilation display the image from Song-1, not the embedded image.

1. Solution: Insure the app can read ID3 images...or give users an option to make the app read ID3 images first.

Lyrics Displays:

A very popular feature. Many players are not able to read ID3v2 lyrics or just display it as static lyrics (USLT). Most are not able to read ID3v2 synchronized lyrics (SYLT). Some Music Players partnered with "Lyrics" providers to pull lyrics when the song is queued up. But they do not store or tag the lyrics. The few that read synched lyrics typically display all the lyrics but highlight that one line of text being sung.

1. Solution: Make sure the app can read both types of ID3 lyrics (USLT & SYLT). The most effective method for displaying "synchronized" lyrics uses a box around 4 lines at a time. This method can hide small timing issues. The other method "highlights" the one line being sung - see example below.

Synchronized "Boxed" Lyrics:

I am to new to the forum to post links. Below is the image for this example (SoundHound app).

Synchronized "One Line" Lyrics:

Sorry again, here's the location (TuneWicki app) - img15.imageshack.us/img15/3474/lyricsbyline.jpg
[Android Apps and Games] kemonine96:
Sounds about right, there is a lot of upstream churn right now so builds will be fairly unstable for a little while longer. Once the upstream merge window closes things should calm back down. I'll be posting links to more stable versions once things look good. The build bot I setup will continue to post daily though in the meantime.
[Android Apps and Games] kemonine96:
Thanks for the information. I'm sure a few users that are new to the Android front appreciate knowing a bit about the way Android views media tagging.
[Android Apps and Games] bardock0goku:
Why is that whenever you go to home screen and reselect the app. It always resets. Which is quite annoying
[Android Apps and Games] Marbieskarb:
I'm not sure if anyone else is having this issue but I'm having an issue with selecting items using the touch screen. The touches seem to register on the screen but it takes several touches for it actually to do anything. For example, using the default Confluence skin I can scroll to settings just fine and its very smooth and responsive but when the sub menu comes up I have to tap several times for it to actually go into settings. Now again I can see the screen showing my touches but it doesn't do anything. You have to just keep randomly hitting it for it to finally go.

I was able to connect a mouse and it works as it should. If anyone knows what's up, please let me know.

This only seems to be happening on one of my devices. Its a eLocity A7+ (Tegra 2)

I've used multiple roms with the same thing... (CM7 2.35 and Honeycomb)
[Android Apps and Games] kemonine96:
This is common for the Toshiba Thrive and a few other devices from the reports. There is a thread http://www.xbmcandroid.com/forums/xbmc-android-compatibility/40.htm that I created to better track the issue.

Unfortunately, I'm not sure what is causing it currently.
[Android Apps and Games] kemonine96:
Not sure, may be related to the Android process cleanup methods and the fact the app is pretty big and eats CPU.

Going crazy

So I have XBMC on my tablet and my PC (windows 7 eden stable), and one of my favorite shows a come on the day network and Hgtv. Needless to say I love XBMC for this but no matter what I try I can not get it to work on my tablet. The plug in works fine till I tap the episode I want to watch then the entire program shuts down and kicks me to my home screen. I really want to be able to watch it on my tablet. The only tv in my house usually gets used by my wife or kids. Please any help would be appreciated. I'm using an Asus infinity stock no root or unlock.
[Android Apps and Games] intelliriffer:
Hi just joined in to post my findings and hope it helps devs with the Black Screen Issues.

Device : Samsung Galaxy Player 5.0 yp-G70

Processor: Arm7

GPU : PowerVR SGX40

Apk Tested : Both neon and non neon to be working.

also tested navi-x and other addons plus samba shares etc all work fine.

Touched skin works fine. however i would like to import my modified touched skin from my ipod touch that i tweaked for easier navigation.

Issues:

1: Audio level was low (even when device level was a max), but after playing with audio settings on the video module of xbmc i was able to raise it up a bit)

2: It launches with a black screen: The only solution is to clear app cache and perform some trick(posted later) in launching it.

What i think the black screen is due to is the fact that for this GPU it does not seems to get correct Orientation/screen resolution/co-ordinates rightaway when launched and hence either scales the UI to a micro pixel or it renders it totally off screen (example :at Left = -width , Top= -height) again the above math is just an assumption as i haven't looked at the code. so if a check could be placed for this gpu or alt method could be used to

get the resolution, then it would work. I was able to figure this out and on black screen as there is a pixel on one of the corners on screen after it has loaded completely and that pixel seems to be bottom corner of the gui itself and rendering at topmost/leftmost co-ordinate of the device.

Here is how to Get it working on black screen devices (required some patience)

1:Clear XBMC CACHE

2. Launch XBMC in REVERSE LANDSCAPE (so that samsung logo is on right side and back/home buttons on left) calling it reverse as xbmc will load ion the opposite landscape orientation.

3. one you get to black screen hit the back button and bottom controls should light up.

4: click home to get back to device desktop

5. til the device so it's orientation changes to portrait , tilt again to get it back to landscape. wait some times

6. long press home to get back to XBMC or use its launcher icon

7: if the screen is still black repeat 3-6, until you get back to xbmc with a logo in middle of screen (this time it has received correct info from GPU ).

8. if screen is still black and you notice a bright spot/pixel on any of the corners start from step 1 again.

Thanks,

hope this helps the devs resolve the black screen issue.
[Android Apps and Games] kemonine96:
Thank you for the info. The issue is caused by a bug in the GPU drivers from what we can tell. There has been some work on the problem and it is discussed in much more depth on xbmcandroid.com's forums: http://www.xbmcandroid.com/forums/xbmc-android-compatibility/47.htm

djeman has put together an experimental patch I am trying to get working currently.
[Android Apps and Games] nasimdejai:
All neon builds on my galaxy nexus load without issues and navigation through the app works flawlessly. The only problem the device has is audio/video oriented. No matter which source ie streaming from add ons or playing local files,format of the video be it SD or HD, all video and audio tend to lag,stutter and crack. I do clear cache when I install a new version of xbmc but still the same issue. When I play local video files via external players such as vplayer or MX player, they are play without a hitch. No one seem to give a clear answer to why this issue only happens to affect Galaxy Nexus GSM running stock Jelly Bean.
[Android Apps and Games] lavero.burgos:
What build did you install? I'm trying withe latest neon build on my cappuccino running cm7 stable and doesn't work. I have tried like 5 times. I do get the white pixel nlwhen I relaunch the app everytime.
[Android Apps and Games] intelliriffer:
I installed both the latest neon and the previous one, both worked.

If you get the white pixel then you have to clear the cache and start over from step1.
[Android Apps and Games] kemonine96:
This is because XBMC for android does not have hardware decode implemented yet. I have similar problems on my Galaxy S3 with GingerBread, Ice Cream Sandwich and Jelly Bean.
[Android Apps and Games] nasimdejai:
OK. So without hardware acceleration, that xbmc will be unusable for now. I'll then have to wait for the fully baked version from the xbmc guys. A colleague installed one of the builds on his Galaxy Note and it worked without a hitch which had me thinking may be my device must be cursed or something. Now that you've given a reason for the said issues, I'm going to rest easy
[Android Apps and Games] Camron708:
He mentioned with all sources (including SD content). I only found my Android devices struggling with HD sources which evidently is because of the lack of GPU acceleration. The CPU on my HP TouchPad at 1.7Ghz and my Galaxy S2 @ 1.5Ghz is enough to play video smoothly up to 480p (the SG2 can do some 720p video but it occasionally stutters).

I did have audio cracks but I found I could minimize that by keeping my Android volume at 75-80% and the volume in XBMC around a similar percentage.

I am not sure but I think a Galaxy Nexus would probably perform on par as my HP TouchPad (well enough to watch 480p video).
[Android Apps and Games] Boss996:
I could not play continuous music on upnp.

I have tried everything but it couldn't.

Do you have the way to solve it.

if you have , tell me step by step.
[Android Apps and Games] kemonine96:
I know, I have problems with SD content as well on my Galaxy S3. Some SD content will not play back properly, especially if it is within an mkv container with higher quality audio streams (ac3 / dts in particular). The bitrate of the encode can also cause issues, too high of a bitrate and you're going to run into problems.

There are a lot of variations on SD and HD content. The container format, codec, bitrate, subtitles and other factors all contribute to whether something will or won't play.
[Android Apps and Games] 160bpm:
Have installed the build xbmcapp-armeabi-v7a-debug08-29-full-neon.apk

Also installed the QUARTZ skin.

Have MacOS formatted external hd connect to my Asus Transformer Infinity using Paragon NFS&HFS+ app from the store.

Add source and download all movie posters and fan-art.

Work like a charm !!!

<<< Bugs i found >>>

Only thing i found is problem with Shift and backspace key.

Backspace key does not delete all characters from right to left but from left to right

Shift is not working. Did not get capital characters. Left shift works like left cursor en right shift works like right cursor

The flickering was solved here when i reboot my TF700t.

Known issue no H/W acceleration for Tegra2/3 so the MKV files are bad... (using MXplayer for that)
[Android Apps and Games] blucmal:
Is there no hw decoding support for tegra 3 either? I thought all neon device were supported as far as hw decoding goes. I might wait till official release before buying my next tab to make sure I get a supported device. I dont want to buy a new tab and find no hw decoding like my current a500 tegra 2.
[Android Apps and Games] nasimdejai:
I'm having issues playing the following plugins: 4OD Demand5 and ITV player. The videos just refuse to load. Does anyone know if there are settings I need to apply before videos can load? With 4od I get the following msg "Unable to play MP4 video files". Other plugins just don't load the videos. Even sometimes some episodes from the BBC iplayer plugin refuse to load as well. I'm running stock ics without root. Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] kemonine96:
There is only hardware decode for the Pivos XIOS.

Everything else android lacks hardware decode. I'll be calling it out once it lands.

Your caution on a new purchase is spot on. The general consensus is to hold off on new hardware until hardware decode is present and known stable.

two points:

1. how works the internel scraper?

I use ember media scanner (creates nfo-files for xbmc) und xbmc (pc version recognize the nfo from ember and dont scrape an his own) since years.

On android i have many files with wrong infos (infos came not from nfo-files). Mostly files are ok maybe 90 - 95 %, what some files are wrong although the right nfo file exist.

2. is it possible to give the playing file to an external programm like bubbleupnp or upnplay (for streaming to tv). i found an solution for external player, what i cant get it working for upnplay or bubbleupnp

Thanks for the heads up. I've not tested any builds after 2012/09/02 due to the number of upstream changes going on. The builds that are published to the mirrors are auto-published every night by my Jenkins box. I normally check the builds every few days and post links if they look good.

I usually test on my Acer A100 and Galaxy S3. I also have a Samsung Rugby Smart, Motorola Defy and Samsung Captivate (Galaxy S1). I've been doing most of my work on the Captivate lately. @djeman has been working with me on resolving the black screen issue and the Captivate suffers the problem. I hope to have a new build published shortly that fixes the black screen problem. Then its back to my other devices.

great effort

really waiting to use this app on my xperia neo v running on ICS. Have tried using these nightlies on three occasions but in my opinion the app with its gorgeous ui is a bit too much for my single core 1 ghz cpu & 512mb ram to handle.Responsiveness to touch is also not good and it does not exit on pressing exit button but rather freezes the phone.Even the touch theme is not light enough for my phone it seems. I am really willing to settle for less gorgeous interface to get a really working app. I may add that in my opinion the weather app, programs applet are unnecessary.
