Admin 347 Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 Hi All, We have reached a couple of new milestones with XBMB3C - release 0.9.0 AND a new skin repo! But before going into the details, a few words... We really would like to invite both MediaBrowser users who have previously tried XBMC and found the database capabilities lacking, and XBMC users who have tried or heard about MediaBrowser but found the hardware support lacking to give XBMB3C a shot! What we are trying to do here is take the very powerful, VERY multi-platform XBMC playback and skinning engine, and combine it with the awesome meta-data and database management capabilities of MediaBrowser3. This strips away a lot of the somewhat cobbled together XBMC back-end database scripts and makes for a much cleaner user experience, while opening MediaBrowser3 to 7-foot low-end devices powered by Android or OpenElec. So - what is new? XBMC 0.9.0 adds: Search capability Better skin integration Added Favorite Shows node Update NextUp widget on stop Check that service is running Error handling for non-UNC paths Photo widget support Better MB3->XBMC art mapping Meta-data for playback in-progress items More granular debug logs No meta-data cache for less than 25 items (helps with TV status updates) In addition, we are announcing the XBMB3C skin repo - available here: http://im85288.no-ip.org/xbmc/addons/xbmb3c-repo/repository.xbmb3c-1.0.0.zip Here you will find a great, growing collection of XBMC skins modified specifically for MediaBrowser3 functionality: Aeon MQ5: Arctic: Confluence: Xperience 1080++ Aeon Nox 4.1.9 Gotham coming VERY soon! We hope you will give XBMB3C a shot - if you need ANY help feel free to ask here: http://mediabrowser.tv/community/index.php?/forum/99-xbmb3c/ And... we aren't stopping here. Coming soon to XBMB3C: Multiple fanart support Actor images, data and searches Theme music support xnappo View the full article 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
