The whole point with XBMC is that EVERYTHING just works (Except HD-movies). That is the strength of XBMC. Iv'e been fiddeling around with this build for some hours now and there is sadly not much that it plays without flaws or crashes. Movies speeding away at different speeds etc. (Running it on the latest Mac book Pro) Step one whould be that it should at least play everything that the Xbox ver. can. Step 2. High def. Im sorry for being so negative. I really enjoy your efforts and I'm looking forward to the day when I can throw out my ugly Xbox. =) Hmm, this build works nothing like the real

VLC = open source so usable. I am not a programmer btw so cannot help you with it. @LaLocaChica: VLC has support for the Apple remote if that is what you mean? VLC = open source so usable.

Video playing will produce a pink screen. Hopefully we'll figure out a fix soon. @iDavid: You’re a lucky guy to have a Macbook Air; unfortunately, you’re unlucky in that we’re having trouble with the graphics chip in that model (Intel X3100).

Let me know if there is something you want me to test on the MBA. I also have a first edition Macbook Pro and a MacPro tower (last version, not the new ones) as well. As to the Apple Remote thing, perhaps this might be of help. http://www.filewell.com/iRedLite/ Could be used to drive XBMC as a stopgap. I've not looked at Remote Buddy yet. I think you guys are doing FANTASTIC work on this. Keep those releases coming! Just picked up a Macbook Air this weekend and will install the .1 version of XBMC to try out.

However, with fullscreen I don't think it actually switches the resolution. But hey, it's a start! @Two Reslutions: Set the resolution to 720p in the video player settings.
