Has anyone used the XBMC code (google code or yahoo groups) while using a MC3 processor? If so did you need to change the Program Header in the module for a 3-series processor? I have been trying to get this to work and you would think it would be easy but I get nothing!!!

OK, so I'm still having issues with XBMC. I have control over XBMC but am not getting my feedback for the list items and thumbnails. I can press the screen where the thumbnails would be and real time/simpl debugger will show a press but nothing happens on the machine and no images appear.

I really need help answering this so any suggestions would be appreciated.

Why are you guys using System Builder for "advanced" programming?

Bite the bullet and spend some time learning Simpl. When I started at this company all we programmed in was SB, and came to learn that there is NO way to troubleshoot the problems as you can't follow the coding, and even if you fixed one problem another one would arise that wasn't there before. We have since started to move away from SB and program in Simpl.

It is time consuming at first as the learning curve is quite large but there is a lot of help out there (here on RC as well as IP and Yahoo groups) that will answer your questsions.

Don't get me wrong I am not saying SB is completely horrible as we still use SB for basic audio systems using tuner cards and iDocs, but once we get into Video distribution/control we will add an MC3 and RSD from the AES to the MC3 and have the MC3 do majority of the logic with the AES just being used for the Tuners and Room Selection (we move the iPod to the MC3 for easier interface programming).
You can't fix stupid
