I think I have a bigger issue with my XBMC install. I can't seem to
play any video mpeg with mplayer.  It locks up.  It's possible

build of XBMC that I got isn't the best.  Anyone have suggestions
on a
place to get the binary downloads?  Email me if you don't want to
post
to the group.

I also have the python scripts installed for Myth.  My cards/myth
don't
create .nuv files, they create .mpg files.  I assume these are
mpeg4 or
am I wrong on this?  Mplayer should be able to play these shouldn't
they?

I'll bet my right one that your files are MPEG4 recordings. The
mplayer.dll that comes with XBMC won't play them and you need to get a
patched version. Search the archives for mplayer.dll over the last
couple of weeks 'cos I think someone put a link up to where you could
get it. Let me know if you can't find it as I may be able to help.
How old is your version of XBMC? I have a version from 10/31/05 and
it plays everything I throw at it. I had a version from around July,
and it even had the software to decode H.264/x264 (though the CPU
couldn't stand the load).

My advice is find a torrent tracker (try http://bt.xbox-sky.com:8080
All they deal with is XBox software) and download the latest version.


Well I have video playing but no Myth livetv.  But thats ok -- I moved
back to a recent SVN version so I'm not surprised it isn't working.
I'll have to look into the scripts or look for a cvs version that might
work.  Not sure how the scripts pick up the buffer file name so that
could possibly be the only issue with it.  Not sure how nice its going
to be since I'm rather spoiled with with a full running Mythtv version
on xbox linux.
Well, I'd recomend you stick with XBox Linux. True, the new versions of XBMC are pretty slick, but from what I've heard, the MythTV scripts are a bit lacking, compared to a full on front-end.
