elan: No problem, glad I could help

Do you have any idea of when you’re going to release the next version?

@ elan: Cool. I can’t over state how much nicer this project is to use compared to front row, even with the apple remote’s functionality as it is.

I know there are bigger fish to fry, but plug n’ play usb-> xbox1 dvd remote for xbmc for os x would be killer.

@Andy: I know what you mean with the Apple Remote. With the latest fixes in b9, the wireless XBox360 controller feels quite good, indistinguishable (to me, at least) from the wired controller/XBox in terms of latency.

Hey madmax,

Are you using the original xbox remote as your primary remote for xbmc for os x? If so, does it behave exactly as it does on the regular xbox (latency, buttons). I’m asking because every time I use my xbox xbmc it feels much more substantial (I know this sounds funny) than either the apple remote or my harmony 880.

@beto77: I was happy to see Spain won, since I lived there for four years growing up

@Eric: Thanks for the kind words!

@Andrew: Thank you! Go to Settings -> Appearance -> Screen and go through the modes until you find one that reads “Full Screen #2″ or something like that.

I’d like to thank you guys for making such a wicked piece of software. The only software that allows my MacBook to play 1080p. You’re a life saver! I’ll donate if you make it so you can tell OSXBMC to apply full screen to an extended screen, example an HD tv. At the moment I have to clamshell my MacBook to get it to work properly. Unless there’s something I’m missing?

Anyway, Keep it up! You rock!

I don’t know you, but thanks so much!

Some dude in a forum pointed me in your direction and I’m pleased to let you know that you’re in charge of –the only– program that allows my macbook to play 1080p without a hitch.

I thank you kindly and look forward to whatever is up your sleeve.

no, SPAIN won!! Yeahh

By the way, I was wondering, DVR functionality is planned?, or some kind of eye tv implementation or something, because I use it very often and I have to constantly switch between eye tv and osxbmc
Thanks for everything, and Spain euro champion 2008!
