ah kailangan pala salangan ng codec. akala ko plug n play na

PowerDVD, TMT, and SplashPRO Ex have their own codecs for HD audio. Yung MPC-HC and WMP lang kelangan pa ng external codecs.

Yung gusto ko lang sa XBMC without external players is that I do not need a remote with mouse capabilities anymore. Pwede na yung Android/IOS with XBMC app or my trusty Vista MCE Remote.

Sony Corporation officially didn't include the OtherOS feature in the PS3 slim to cut on costs. Here's the source. But of course, there is always a way which you can try...

I also have the same problem when accessing large files via local network. Nagbubuffer din. Pag AVi, music, photos no problem.

Just have a question guys, sometimes when i play files via xbmc the vid quality isn't as good as it should be. I'm using the following:
AMD Phenom X2 555
4G ram
powercolor ATI 6670

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Please elaborate on video quality. Try to play them with other media players and if the video quality is still unacceptable, it must be a bad encode or the source isn't really HD. Also check again your video settings in both the PCs control panel and XBMC. Make sure that you are using the right resolution for the display. You can also try updating your VC to the latest drivers. Is it outputted in a TV or PJ? The PQ of the internal player of XBMC is ok with my plasma but when I use it on my PJ, I'd rather use an external player like Splash Pro which has better video quality than XBMCs internal player.

elim · « **Reply #318 on:** Oct 12, 2012 at 11:43 AM »

Hi Bro Nerveblocker,

Not that its very bad just inferior. I tried the same video file and it has better pq when played via wmp. Same as the xbmc internal player, vlc also has inferior quality. I'm using a PJ btw. Maybe using splash pro might be the answer. how do i connect the splash pro to the xbmc?

Thanks

Hello po... Meron ako 1 problem with my XBMC.

It's IP Address changes from time to time. From 192.168.1.103-106... I still have to edit the IP address setting of my XBMC Remote (iOS) every time I try to use it.

How can I make it FIXED?

Thanks!

kasi po naka DCHP ka o auto configuration.marami kayo gumagamit ng network kaya nagbabago palagi ang ip address mo.para po yang "first come-first serve basis" kung sinong unang maka log sa net,sya makakakuha ng 1st slot. so on and so forth.
ang gagawin mo lang ay gagawing STATIC IP.
if you're using windows, punta ka sa network and sharing setting at tapos sa network connection.piliin mo dun sa adapter kung naka LAN o wifi ka. tapos access mo TCP/IPV4 properties ng adapter.tapos gawin mo i-manual fill mo ang setting ng ip address,subnet at gateway para maging fixed na.

sulit talaga ang SPlash Pro EX, sana nga lang meron sila X/Y set up para mawala un black borders by not zooming in. PQ is the best

Thanks for this... Bahala na lang... Mag change na lang ako palagi ng IP. Hahaha.

Isa ring problema ko with XBMC is yung sa pag change ng driver letter.

Yung movies ko nasa external. Drive (G:) then if i-insert ko yung isang drive, then ma change na naman to (H:) or (I:)... Tapos if i-edit source ko yung movies ko sa XBMC, ayaw na nyang ma locate kahit naka (G:Movies) na. Mag remove/refresh na naman ako.

kailangan gawin mong fixed din ang Drive ng hardisk mo.
#1-option dyan any dapat tandaan mo palagi kung saang port ng usb mo nilalagay ang drive mo
at bago ka mag run ng XBMC dapat naka load na ang hardrive.
#2-option--gamitin mo ang administrative tool (disk management) para ma-ifixed ang drive path ng hardisk mo.pwede ka mag assign ng letter drive from A-Z.

or you can check your router, baka may settings dun to assign that mac address with this ip address, yung zyxel p660 ng pldt has this feature, no need na to do static ip settings

Mga tsong.. just installed OpenElec XBMC on my Raspberry PI... panalong panalo! pati 3D content na 1080p kayang i-stream (Navi-X at Icefilms). If you need help in the setup.. I'm glad to help you.

Mga boss ask ko lang kung na experience nyo na rin to.
every 15-20mins (approx) while watching a movie bigla na lang nag lalag ng mga 2-3seconds.

may na encounter na po ba kayong ganito? baka po may alam kayong fix.

Ganun din ba sa ibang files? Anong klaseng files (mkv, 720p, 1080p, remux, bd iso) naglalag? What are the specs of your rig? Ngayon lang nangyari o dati pa?
