XBMC Media Center 12.0 Beta 3

XBMC - (Open Source)



XBMC Media Center is a great media center alternative, though brilliant in its simplicity of use by its features allowing to navigate photo, video and audio content via a remotely controllable interface.

XBMC Media Center is an Open Source Media Center compatible with DLNA. This software provides access to all media sources that exists on the local network. Movies, music, videos or Internet, all sources can be managed and accessed from the laptop, PDA, XBox, TV or simply from the computer. If any connections to a DLNA-compatible network drive are opened, the application instantly identifies all multimedia files in it to make them available through its interface.

Upon launching the application , the interface is distinguished by its elegance and fluidity. The default theme is very successful, but user can opt for many other skins available directly from the application settings. The themes are applicable without rebooting.

XBMC supports many video formats (MPEG 1, 2 and 4, MOV, MKV, AVI, XVID, Real Video, WMV) and audio (MP3, FLAC, Ogg, WMA, WAV, MPC, APE). Side options, for each section there are available several parameters: HD optimization SD video format 4:3 movies, customize the display of subtitles, auto-hide summary movies for video unread, activation crossfade to music or pan and zoom effect for photos.

By default, the application offers a weather and a RSS reader but, there is everything from BitTorrent client frontend for MAME emulator .

- Users of Android 4.2 should now be able to install and run XBMC for Android.
- The upgrade path of Windows users has been a little tricky. Users may upgrade to beta and discover the audio no longer works. This is due to a bit of trickiness with the AudioEngine upgrade.
- For those Windows users who find themselves without sound, the simple fix is to go to System->system->Audio Output and switch WASAPI to DirectSound. Users doing a clean install of XBMC for Windows should have no problem.
- PVR Addons have been included with XBMC for Windows, matching up with most other ports.
- We are still only partially complete on translations for numerous languages, including Romanian, Japanese, Estonian, Bosnian, Serbian, Hindi, and more.
